Czechs Holding
Two Mormon
Missionaries
PRAGUE, Czechoslovakia </P)—
:The Czech foreig noffice announc
; ed yesterday state police have ar
1 rested two American Mormon
| missionaries on charges “of hav
ing attempted to enter a prohib
' ited area.”
I
The announcement was made in
j a note to the U. S. embassy reply
J ing to an American request for
information as to the whereabouts
' of the missionaries. The two dis
appeared Jan. 28 while travelling
! through Moravia to visit members
of the Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter Day Saints (Mormon-, liv
ing near the border.
The missionaries are Stanley E.
Abbott, 23, of Lehi, Utah, and C.
Aldon Johnson, 22, of Idaho Falls,
Idaho.
It had been reported authori-,
tatively the two were being held
at Olomouc in central Movaria,
not far from Prostejov, where
they had been stationed by their
church. They had been held in
c o m municado. All efforts of
American officials to see them
have failed thus far.
The note said the embassy's re
quests to see the men “was under
consideration.”
Both men, unmarried, have
been on Czechoslovakia for a lit
tle more than two years. As far
as is known, they left Prostejov
Friday, Jan. 27, for a regular
weekly visit to church members
living on the outskirts of Brun
tal and Opava, near the Polish
border.
Some used cars nowadays are
not worth what they’re jacked up
to be.
