FROM EVENTS OF THE LAST WEEK (October 28 - November 4)
Nation Celebrates 80th Anniversary of Czechoslovakia's Founding
The Czech Republic celebrated the 80th anniversary of the founding
of the former Czechoslovakia. On October 28, President Vaclav Havel,
Prague Mayor Jan Koukal and other politicians laid flowers at the statue
of Saint Wenceslas on Prague's Wenceslas Square. Public attendance was
minimal.
Havel then took part in a memorial ceremony at the grave of the
Unknown Soldier in Zizkov. After lunch he observed the ceremonial taking
of the oath of new Prague Castle Guard soldiers. Later in the afternoon
in Prague Castle Havel met about 100 foreign diplomats. In his speech he
said the state wants to be an integral part of today's world and is
prepared to take its share of responsibility.
In the National Museum, the Czech Union of Freedom Fighters (CSBS)
held its traditional meeting, attended by Prime Minister Milos Zeman,
Culture Minister Pavel Dostal and Education Minister Eduard Zeman.
Freedom Fighters Chairman Jakub Cernin in his speech praised the first
republic (i.e., Czechoslovakia from 1918-38), which was "a blessing for
all nations living in it." He criticized today's politicians for the
split of Czechoslovakia in 1992 and for the current state of the Czech
Republic. Cernin asked how is was possible that tabloid television and
newspapers have a bigger influence on the public than the government and
Parliament. Zeman talked about what he called the essential problem of
Czech history, the fight "between the tendency for submission and sloth
with uncertainty." As an example he recalled the collaborating
journalists who celebrated the Nazis' extermination of the village of
Lidice and the members of the resistance, who were not afraid of
fighting for freedom. "Let us not choose the way of comfort into the
valley, but the narrow path of uncertainty up the mountain," said Zeman.
Vaclav Klaus, chairman of Parliament's Chamber of Deputies, was
present at the ceremonial unveiling of a new statue of first
Czechoslovak President Tomas Garrigue Masaryk in Turnov. In the
afternoon Klaus spoke at a ceremony in Prague's Rudolfinum. He
criticized today's Czech political scene and "false intrigues."
Celebrations of the anniversary are insufficient, he said, because there
is no patriotic feeling. "Patriotic feeling only after soccer victories
is not enough," said Klaus.
One day earlier, the Communist Party of Bohemia and Moravia (KSCM)
called a gathering on Wenceslas Square for the anniversary. The main
speaker, Communist Parliament deputy Vaclav Exner, said Communist
Czechoslovakia before 1989 was faithful to the spirit of Masaryk and the
first republic because they both were capable of solving social and
culture problems. Exner said that Czechoslovakia split in 1992 because
of the "selfishness of the most powerful, Meciar and Klaus and his bands
of thieves." The "biggest collaborator and destroyer of the state" is
President Vaclav Havel, said Exner.

State Awards in Shadow of Zilk Affair
On the 80th anniversary of Czechoslovakia's founding, President
Vaclav Havel awarded many outstanding politicians, soldiers, academics,
athletes and other people of merit with Czech state awards. The awards
were given to the Colonel Karel Kuttelwascher, Major General Josef
Bartik, Monsignor Vaclav Maly, Zdena Masinova (persecuted by the Nazi
and Communist regimes), former dissidents Vaclav Benda and Petr Uhl,
philosophers Roger Scruton and Erazim Kohak, film director Vera
Chytilova, hockey goalie Dominik Hasek, tennis players Martina
Navratilova and Jana Novotna, Olympic gold medalist Emil Zatopek and
others. Eighty-nine people were approved for the honors by the
president's advisory commission. Much ado was caused by the withdrawal
of the award for Vienna Mayor Helmut Zilk (see Carolina 306 and the next
story).
The awards ceremony took place October 28 in the Vladislav Hall of
Prague Castle, where about 500 hundred people gathered in front of the
television cameras broadcasting the event live.
In his seven-minutes-long opening address Havel described the
direction of the future development of the Czech Republic and stressed
the necessity of the republic becoming a full-fledged member of an
integrated Europe. Havel's address carried the spirit of the first
Czechoslovak President Tomas Garrigue Masaryk. "Masaryk once said that
states are maintained only by the ideals which gave birth to them. Let
us take the path of those who fulfilled these ideas in the past and who
are fulfilling them also in our time. The men and women who I am
awarding in the name of the Republic today belong - each in a different
way - among those people," said Havel at the end of his address. The
ceremony was concluded with a reception in Prague Castle.
The state awards are to honor oustanding civic merit in enhancing
a free and democratic society, for lifetime achievement, for defending
the country and heroic and others deeds. The Order of the White Lion and
the Order of Tomas Garrigue Masaryk are entrusted to Czech citizens and
given to foreigners. The Medal of Heroism and Medal of Merit are lower
awards which are also granted.

Zilk Affair Continues
The affair of former Vienna Mayor Helmut Zilk, whom President
Vaclav Havel refused to present the Order of the White Lion because of
suspicions Zilk cooperated with the Communist State Security (StB), has
taken on new dimensions. After his decision not to award the Order,
Havel said his Chancellor Ivan Medek had been blackmailed by the German
newspaper Suddeutsche Zeitung (see Carolina 306). However, Medek said
the newspaper's approach was entirely proper.
According to the Zeitung Vienna correspondent Michael Frank, there
was at first an attempt to use the affair to transfer parts of the
secret police archives from the Interior Ministry to the Foreign
Ministry. Therefore, certain people allegedly gave information about
Zilk to a Czech television station, which then decided to use the
information against Havel. In effort to prevent this, some people from
the television station decided to ask the German newspaper to warn the
president.
The question is the source of the information on Zilk's alleged
collaboration with the secret police. One possible source is the Office
for the Documentation and Investigation of the Crimes of Communism
- former office Director Vaclav Benda, now a senator for the Civic
Democratic party (ODS), drew the president's attention to Zilk in the
middle of September. Invitations for the awards ceremony had already
been sent.
If the Interior Ministry consents, Havel said he wants to enable
Zilk to see his file.

Senator Benda Claims Questionable People among Honored
In connection with the Zilk affair appeared information that among
those honored October 28 are people whose past can be questioned.
Senator Vaclav Benda (Civic Democratic Party, ODS) said nine suspicious
people were honored, including former Communist State Security agents
and Nazi collaborators. Benda refused to disclose names.
It is not clear where Benda obtained the information. Interior
Minister Vaclav Grulich expressed his concern that it comes from the
Office for the Documentation and Investigation of the Crimes of
Communism, which Benda managed until January. Benda denies this
accusation, although in previous years he helped the Office of the
President screen awarded individuals, which was possibly illegal.

Radio Free Europe Broadcasting to Iraq and Iran
On October 30 Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty began regular
broadcasting to Iraq and Iran in daily half-hour segments. Both
countries have threatened the Czech Republic with cutbacks in
cooperation.
Radio Administrative Director Jan Obrman declined to confirm the
assumption that the programs are located in the headquarters of the
radio in the former Federal Assembly building at the top of Prague's
Wenceslas Square. He said only that the broadcasting is not done from
the residential neighborhood of Bubenec. The government had rejected the
Bubenec plan because of security reasons October 7, when it gave
agreement to broadcasting under the condition that radio management find
a better locale.
Iraqi Foreign Affairs Minister Muhammad Said Kazim Sahhaf warned
the Czech Republic November 2 against further broadcasting. "Launching
anti-Iraq broadcasting means negative development which could have an
effect on future economic and trade cooperation," he was quoted as
saying by the CTK agency.
The Iranian government decided to recall its ambassador from
Prague. Teheran also announced it will restrict economic contacts with
the Czech Republic. Skoda Plzen head Lubomir Soudek said Czech imports
to Iran might be banned. His firm has a contract with Iran to supply
streetcars and build five sugar refineries. Other firms working with
Iran fear losses in the hundreds of millions of crowns.
Foreign Minister Jan Kavan said the Czech Cabinet is not preparing
any retaliatory measures and Interior Minister Vaclav Grulich proposed
the Cabinet again discuss the consequences of broadcasting, because
Iranian sanctions might weaken the Czech economy.

Three Bodies of Czech Bosnia Casualties Brought to Prague
A special Czech Army flight October 27 brought to Prague the bodies
of the three Czech soldiers who died in a helicopter crash in Bosnia.
The MI-17 helicopter crashed October 25 in the mountains near the
village of Sipanjici in bad weather. The cause of the crash should be
known after the contents of the helicopter's black box are analyzed in
about three weeks. Condolences were sent to the victims' families from
Defense Minister Vladimir Vetchy, Commander of Army Air Force Ladislav
Klima, Chief of the General Staff Jiri Sedivy and NATO General Secretary
Javier Solana.

FROM SLOVAKIA
Mikulas Dzurinda Introduces New Government
The coalition agreement for creating a new Slovak government was
signed October 28, exactly after one month of negotiations. The four
parties of the former opposition managed in the end to overcome
disagreements, and the new ministers October 30 were officially named.
In the new government the leading Slovak Democratic Coalition (SDK)
received nine chairs, including the position of prime minister for party
Chairman Mikulas Dzurinda, while the Party of the Democratic Left (SDL')
has six chairs and party Chairman Jozef Migas will become the National
Assembly's chairman. The Hungary Coalition Party (SMK) will have three
chairs and the Party of Civic Understanding (SOP) two. SMK made the
biggest compromise, giving leadership of the Agriculture Ministry to
SDL', which had made noises opposing SMK's presence in the government.
Like the Czech Republic's Cabinet, the Slovak body also has four
vice chairmen, one from each coalition party - Vice Chairman for the
Economy Ivan Miklos (SDK), Vice Chairman for Legislation Lubomir Fogas
(SDK), Vice Chairman for Integration Vice Pavol Hamzik and Vice Chairman
for Human and Minority Rights Pal Csaky. Key ministries were divided
between SDK and SDL': the new Foreign Minister is Eduard Kukan (SDK),
Interior Minister Ladislav Pittner (SDK), Defense Minister Pavol Kanis
(SDL), Finance Minister Brigita Schmognerova (SDL'), Economy Minister
Ludovit Cernak (SDK), Privatization Minister Maria Machova (SOP), and
Agriculture Minister Pavol Koncos (SDL'). The most familiar faces in the
new cabinet are Justice Minister and former Prime Minister Jan
Carnogursky and Culture Minister and former actor Milan Knazko, both SDK
members and leading figures in the fall of Communism in 1989.
The parties also agreed to support SOP Chairman Rudolf Schuster in
the presidential elections, although in the coming days the parties will
have to decide on the method of election. The question is whether the
parties are going to keep their campaign promises of direct election or
if they will take advantage of their constitutional majority in the
National Assembly and propose a candidate without public participation.
During the first session of the new Assembly October 29, former
Premier Vladimir Meciar gave his seat to Ivan Lexa, former director of
the Slovakian Information Service and suspect in the kidnapping of
former President Michal Kovac's son two years ago. Lexa thus gained
immunity, but Interior Minister Pittner announced that with the support
of the Assembly majority he intends to prosecute Lexa.
The new Cabinet is trying to cultivate Slovakia's reputation abroad
and join the countries in the first wave of discussions on EU
membership. Dzurinda's first foreign visit will be to Brussels, where he
will deal with EU and NATO representatives.

ECONOMY
October Budget Shows Cosmetic Surplus of 9.4 Billion Crowns
According to the Finance Ministry, the state budget at the end of
October showed a surplus of 9.4 billion crowns. The reality of the
situation is not so rosy, however, because budget income still includes
7 billion crowns dedicated for repairing flood damage and 5.4 billion
for restitution settlements. Expenses do not include the
4.1-billion-crown guarantee to the Czech Savings Bank (Ceska
sporitelna), the Consolidation Bank (Konsolidacni banka) losses of 10.4
billion crowns, and 2.5 billion crowns in other costs. This year's
budget should wind up with a deficit of about 20 billion crowns,
according to the latest ministry estimates.

Czech National Bank Cuts Interest Rates, Warns on Wage Increase Demands
The Czech National Bank (CNB) October 26 lowered all basic bank
rates. The discount rate was decreased from 11.5 per cent to 10 per
cent, the Lombard rate from 16 per cent to 15 per cent, and the basic
repo rate, the main tool of CNB monetary policy, was lowered from 13.5
per cent to 12.5 per cent.
The cuts should bring relief to Czech companies paying high
interest rates on their loans or avoiding loans because of the high
rates. Raiffeisenbank dealer Petr Tomek said it is possible the central
bank will make further cuts in accordance with future inflation
developments. CNB Governor Josef Tosovsky would not rule out future
cuts, but he warned against steps which could have the opposite effect
on CNB policy, namely the wage increase demands of Czech unions. Trade
unions are counting on inflation of about 10 per cent while the CNB
forecasts a net inflation rate of below 7 per cent. The proposed 1999
wage increase for the state sector could provoke inflation and could
lead also to higher unemployment.
The rather radical cut in interest rates will bring no remedy for
the economic recession. It is necessary to improve payment discipline,
because the high percentage of bad loans makes banks reluctant to give
new loans to the small and medium businessmen.

Prague Indies Festival Aims to Present Independent Cinematography
In its second year the Prague Indies film festival offered more
than 60 independent or low-budget movies from 12 different countries,
including the USA, Greece and Mongolia.
Some of the festival highlights included Gingerbread Man by Robert
Altman and the French movie Western, which took the Jury Prize at Cannes
last year, as well as Smoke Signals by Chris Eyr, the first so-called
independent film made by American Indian.
The festival wants to draw attention to films not made in
Hollywood and wishes to help these films find distributors. The festival
is the only one of its kind in central and eastern Europe.

Nusle Theater Reopened
The newly reconstructed Na Fidlovacce Theater in Prague's Nusle
neighborhood was christened October 28 with a performance of the
19th-century Czech play Fidlovacka by L. Skroup and Josef K. Tyl. The
same play had been staged on the theater's opening night 77 years ago.
The theater had been closed for years because of its poor physical
condition. The Fidlovacka Foundation, established by actor-director
Tomas Topfer and actress Eliska Balzerova, organized the reconstruction.

Slavia Eliminated from UEFA Cup in Second Round
Slavia Praha soccer players were eliminated from the UEFA Cup after
a 0-2 loss to Bologna November 3. The last Czech participant in the
European cups did not manage to take advantage of having lost the first
match by only 1-2 in Italy.
Bologna played with a safe defense, which stopped Slavia's attacks.
The guest team had its best chance to score in the first half, but
defender Lubos Kozel kicked out Russian Igor Kolyvanov's poor shot from
the goal line. Pavel Horvath's shot just before the break hit the bar in
Francesco Antonioli's goal.
When Slavia decided to go for broke, Sweden's Klas Ingesson passed
to Giuseppe Signori, whose ground shot gave Bologna the lead in the
80th minute. Massimo Cappioli's nice shot, which wound up precisely in
the top right corner of Radek Cerny's goal, ended Slavia's last hopes in
the 86th minute.

25.
In the match between league novices, Blsany celebrated a win over

Hockey Extraleague: Last-Place Opava Shocks Sparta and Trinec
The Opava hockey team's performances was the biggest surprise of
the last two Staropramen extraleague rounds. Led by new head coach Jiri
Latal, it caught Sparta unaware, defeating it in its own arena in
Prague. Opava then prepared another shock for the next round, when it
beat league-leading Trinec and moved up from last place.
Jihlava replaced Opava, as its coaching change (Vladimir Caldr for
Josef Augusta) did not help - Jihlava scored only once in two matches
and finished without a point. In the second game, Vitkovice forward
Tomas Jelinek played his 687th match in the league, breaking the
all-time record of Josef Cerny, legendary Brno forward.
Karlovy Vary has not lost in nine rounds, but it lost a win over
Slavia in the last second of play when Ruzicka scored. Slavia stopped
the eight-game winning streak of Vsetin one round before.
Results of the 17th round: Zlin - Karlovy Vary 2-2, Vitkovice -
Jihlava 4-1, Plzen - Kladno 5-3, Ceske Budejovice - Pardubice 3-1,
Sparta - Opava 1-3, Slavia - Vsetin 4-3, Litvinov - Trinec 2-4.
Results of the 18th round: Vsetin - Vitkovice 7-2, Trinec - Opava
0-2, Karlovy Vary - Slavia 3-3, Jihlava - Ceske Budejovice 0-2,
Pardubice - Plzen 5-3, Kladno - Litvinov 3-3, Sparta - Zlin 1-1.
Standings: 1. Vsetin 26, 2. Trinec 25, 3. Zlin 23, 4. Plzen 22, 5.

SPORTS IN BRIEF
* Despite an unconvincing performance in its last game against
Grenoble (4-3), Sparta Praha advanced to the quarterfinal of the
European Hockey League without losing a point. Other Czech teams have to
say goodbye: Litvinov won its first points against Mannheim, but only
after penalty shots (5-4). Jihlava lost 1-4 to Djurgaarden in Stockholm,
but it defeated the Swedish team in its own arena 5-2 in a match
postponed because of an outbreak of illness (see Carolina 304).
* Thanks to a fast finish, Dutch cyclocross rider Richard Groenendaal
won the traditional UCI first category event in Prague's Strahov
Stadium. He defeated his compatriot Adrie van der Poel and Belgium's
Erwin Vervecken. The winner, evidently disoriented, rode another round
at race speed after passing the finish line. The best Czech finisher was
Petr Dlask in 6th, while three-time world champion Radomir Simunek
finished 7th.
* Jaroslav Hules had to end his participation in the motorcycling
World Championships in the 125cc class. After three seasons without
visible improvment, sponsors decided not to support him and offered him
participation in the European and Czech Championships in classes under
125cc or 250cc. Hules refused and said he will rather go to work.
WEATHER
Like in all of central Europe, heavy rains and strong winds caused
big trouble.
The third, highest degree of flood warning was announced for some
rivers, including the Elbe (Labe), Morava, Jizera, Otava and Ohre.
Wind toppled a tall poplar October 28 as a car was passing under it
on a road leading out of Prague. The tree killed a young woman. In the
beginning of the week, the wind caused the most problems in eastern
Bohemia and in Moravia, where it blew roofs off houses and cut off
electricity. The wind reached a speed of 137 kilometers per hour in Usti
nad Orlici with rain and on Poland's side of Snezka Mountain
meteorologists measured the speed at 180 kilometers per hour.
Some 10 centimeters of snow fell in the Sumava and Krkonose
mountains.
