CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY REPOO
INFORMATION FRO
The number of anti-Communist partisans in the Low Tatras of Slovakia
has greatly increased. Because Communist were considered to be in danger,
the SNB (National Security Corps) organized an attack on the partisans. In
this attack, which used Kralova Lehota and Hyby as bases, the commander of
the Kralova Lehota SNB station lost his life.
The Minister of the Interior reported to the Security Committee of
the National Assembly that, in view of the increasing resistance of the
population, 3,000 reliable Communists had been newly recruited for the
SNB. During the first 10 months of 1949, 106 members of the SNB lost
their lives. In January 1950, the SNB had 56,000 members.
