156 Franzensbad, 28.6.1938.Previous day Telephone intervention at the German Embassy, Prague, Legation Councillor Halem. I told the Legation Boardlor Halom the expert in the known, truthful form. My reasons were the following: Through the action of the secret police in Eger, in the eyes of the travelling ladies, who could not get an idea of the conditions in Cechoslovakia, I was put down and had to get the impression that they had to deal with a criminal personality. The envoy said that it was expedient to turn around the Spiess and to clarify the reason for this event to the relevant ladies foreign ladies, in what peculiar form the "democratic freedoms and, in particular, the same rights of the Sudeten Germans play out with the Cechens. I further explained to the embassy that as Reichs- deutscher and in particular as a member of the NsDAp I am used to carrying out an assumed duty completely.I had taken it over to bring the foreign ladies concerned to Eger and to complete the program planned for the future.The intervening of the secret police prevented me in the redemption of the given word. In my honour as a German citizen, I feel violated by the whole action of the secret police and I ask the embassy to take appropriate action in the competent authorities.The embassy has promised me to access this case immediately and to present it to the Czech Foreign Office at the first opportunity. I informed the embassy that two ladies, a Swedish and a Swiss lady, had already lodged a complaint with their embassies about the actions of the Czech police authorities.The envoy told me to contact these two foreign envoys.
