P Z D Provided Press - Information Service. by: The statements of the Imperial Protector of Neurath and the President Dr. Hácha in the European Revue have received the greatest attention in the whole Czech press and are reproduced in leading place. In a comentar, "Národní Listy", the Imperial Protector v.Neurath, wrote in the revue mentioned above about how he grasped his responsible mission.His previous diplomatic and state-manic activities enriched him with experiences that he will be able to exploit successfully and expeditiously today.V. Neurath knows the Tasuedn-year history of the Bohemian countries and correctly grasps the present situation & the Czechs.Especially impressive is the wish of the Imperial protector to find and consolidate the foundations for the cultural and economic flourishing of Bohemia and Moravia through honest Czech-German cooperation. The paper then pays tribute to the opinion of Dæäsident Dr. Hácha and continues to write that both statements agree in the emphasis on the necessity of cooperation between the Czechs and Germans.The Czechs, with thanks, accept the words of recognition for the Czech people and of understanding their feelings, as well as the promise of justice and respect for their rights and their honor, which the Imperial Protector gives before his arrival in Prague, and at the same time we share the President's belief in the people, whose better future lies in the truthfulness and strength of national consciousness. In their headings on the decisions of the Committee of the Czech People's Community, the pages highlight in particular the fact that the Protectorate is to be established within a few days and all the rumours that the protectorate has been lifted are perfectly incorrect.The originators of these rumors, which have been put into the world for concern about the existence, will be severely persecuted and punished.
