(AP)--U.S. spy charges against a handsome Czech diplomat and his counter-claim that American intelligence tried to hire him landed on UN Secretary-General Dag Hammarskjold"s desk to- day. Central figure in the drama is Miroslav Nacvalac, 39, No. 3 man in the Czech UN mission. He said he will ignore U.S. de- mands that he leave the coun- rty until he gets instructions from his government. A UN spokesman said Ham- marskjold is studying a U.S. re- quest that Nacvalac be expelled on grounds he had been collect- ing information from an Ameri- can government worker for al- most a year. Also before the secretary-gen- eral was a protest from the Czech UN mission claiming U.S. agents had dangled promises of unlimited wealth before Nacva- lac if he would become a spy for the United States. Both the U.S. and Czech ac- counts were replete with cloak- and - dagger details including but facts varied lence, the sharply. THREAT TO FIANCEE State department spokesman | Lincoln White gave this account in Washington: Nacvalac made contact about = |a year ago with an American, then a government employee, |d: and demanded his co-operation, threatening that the American's fiancee in Czechoslovakia would be prevented from joining him in the United States. "She was used as a hostage to force the individual's co- operation in espionage activi- ties," White said. White said Naacvalac also in- dicated there was a possibility he might defect and remain in the United States. "Let me make clear, however, that in fact the American citi- zen was co-operating with this government while seeming to act under Nacvalac's instruc- |tions," White said. | The spokesman said the |American had access to classi- |fied U.S. information, but that |he furnished only 'purported' secrets to Nacvalac. He added that the American was of Czech origin. The de- partment withheld his name and that of his fiancee. She had since been admitted to the United States and they now were married. White said a meeting was ar- ranged with Nacvalac last Tues- day at the Gripsholm resaturant in New York. The meeting was attended by special agents of the Federal Bureau of Invesi- RY U.S. Says Man Spied For Year gation and Lt.-Col. Frantisek Tisler, former military attache at the Czech Embassy in Wash- ington who defected in 1959 and was granted asylum in the United States. White said the agents were present to discuss with Nacva- lac his alleged interest in re- maining here. "During the course of this meeting," White said, "it be- came unmistakably clear that Nacvalac's motivations and in- tentions were not genuine and were highly suspect." Nacvalac gave a sharply dif- ferent version of the rendezvous. Sipping a martini in a UN lounge he told reporters this story: Last Tuesday he was lunching with an unidentified American friend at the Gripsholm when three men entered, one of whom he recognized as Tisler. Tisler introduced the two oth- ers to Nacvalac as "Mr. Mack and Mr. Jack," and the Ameri- can friend left when one of the two flashed a badge. threats of blackmail and vio- MAKE TEMPTING OFFERS "Mirek," said Tisler, using a familiar form of Nacvalac's first name, "we would like you to be with us. Mr. Mack can open all the doors to the White House for you." "Mirek," Mack interposed, "if there is something we can do for you, the question of monsy 1 1 ly unimp We can get you all the money you want." Nacvalac said the agents wanted him to keep his job as counsellor in the Czech mission and work for the U.S. govern- ment. When he made plain he would not accept the offer, Nacvalac said, "they started to threaten me." Tisler even hinted at "physical liquidation." Zdenek Cernik, Czecho minis- ter who is acting UN permanent representative, said he received a note from the U.S. mission Tuesday night demanding Nac- valac's withdrawal..He said he etlephoned U.S. Amb a s sador Charles Yost next day and re- jected the note. The Czech mis- sion sent its formal protest to the UN secretariat Friday. Car Hits Trees Driver Killed ST. CATHARINES (CP) -- Oliver J.
