Thank you very much, it worked.
I thought the PyDict_SetItem should assume ownership
of the passed object and decrease it's reference count (I do not know
why).
Does this also go for the Lists ? Should anything inserted into list
also
be DECRED-ed ?
Thank you again for reply.

The pattern is that calls which create an object will return that
object with a refcount of 1, and calls which 'store' an object, for
example, PyDict_SetItem(...) and PyList_Append(...) will increment the
refcount of the stored object to ensure that it won't be garbage
collected.
When in doubt, try stepping through the code in a debugger. You'll see
that storing an object will cause its refcount to be incremented.
