IBOCH Liboch,29.IX. At the reading of the book it should not be forgotten that it was completed in February 1938 and that as a theologian between Rome and Benesch I was in a particularly difficult situation. Above all, I wanted to make the Catholic spiritual loans of the homeland louder for their duties as German priests and to further counter the Czech view of Palacký's history in a closed, larger-scale work.As you know, this has also drawn to me the hateful Czech aritics, although in the book I am trying in no way to get close to the Czechs as such. It will always be a special pleasure for me to be able to serve you, Mr. Secretary of State. Heil Hitler! f3019 EWinter St. S. X 3.
