A SOCIETY FOR THE RUSSIAN PROTECTOR IN THINGS AND IN MORAVA, PRAGUE, inv. 1859, sig. 109-5/87
English Translation
3 - V2, the reference to the already larger number of workers available to Germany, which are supplemented by some 2 million foreign workers and prisoners of war, while England still has more than 800 000 unemployed. Incidentally, in the last few weeks after the beatings against the provincial cities, this figure must have been quite considerable. It is also accused of the government by left-wing circles (but not so much the trade unionists as the political socialists and the intellectuals) that it does not spend much of its, as we know, very far-reaching use of powers, and if there is no duty to work and forced resettlement, it is a much more intense propaganda among the workers in consumer goods. and among the unemployed, the number of whom has grown greatly, especially in mining districts, for entry into the defence industries or for retraining. It also proposes material measures for the relocation in forn of state subsidies, which are now being granted to companies for the provision of their workshops for training purposes, without the government having addressed them so far. However, the last reflections on the mood in the English working class indicate that it is not primarily indecisive that men like Bevin may presidingly operate. A presentation of a congress of the Analganated Engineering Union (500 000 members) which, after the rejection of the last wage increase request, had to decide at 3 d the hour whether a strike vote or an appeal to the arbitral tribunal should take place first, clearly speaks of the Scottish delegates for strike abstinence and told them that they had difficulty in dissuading their members from the immediate dismissal of the work, even before the conference. The strike decision of the congress seemed inevitable and was rejected only by the very sentimental patriotic appeal of a delegate from Valais with 25:11 sts. This pressure on the workers to strike points to a hitherto unknown intensity of socialist demands among the workers, which results only from the open and secret expensiveness in England and from the not yet very pressing shortage of goods, but probably mainly from an astonishingly broad disparity with the "capital", which was able to follow a business from the previous war. It can be reckoned, then, that such non-reforms for the English rearmament will lead the next to a tremendous thunderstorm of Churchill or Bevin or both against such "egoisnus" of a class, since talk does not seem to be very convincing. However, even in times of war, British ministers cannot afford such thunderstorms very often without risking that they, along with their policies, will be chased out of the Tenpel and other forces will be commissioned to achieve the goal of English strength by new methods.
