95 P Z D Presse - Informationsdienst vom 8. März 1939. At the center of the internal political considerations of the Czech press is still the Slovak problem. Today's article of the " Slovák" in which no leader mentions the state-political relationship with the historical countries, but is criticized by the internal policies of the Prague government as well as by the external policies of Prague with the references to the influence of Great Germany Mmimmmmmmimä and the Jewish-Marxist tendencies still prevailing in Prague, is regarded in Czech circles as the sign of a renewed stiffening of the Slovak attitude. The strong emphasis that the Slovaks want to remain free is also interpreted as meaning that the Slovakian government does not intend to commit itself to Prague through new commitments, even in the current negotiations. In any case, the demand for the elimination of Mach has not been met by the position of the Frogaganda chief, and the Slovak negotiators are reported to present a number of new demands in Prague today, on which they want to make their further attitude towards the Western countries dependent. In Prague, the Slovak ministers' trip to Berlin had also attracted unwelcome attention, as they saw an independent foreign political action of the Slovaks. The final disintegration is likely to fall Donnersteg. If an agreement is reached, a joint proclamation is to be published on Preitag or Saturday, while others - if one intends to take action in Prague with more stringent means of pressure against Slovakia. According to information from competent Czech economic circles, the Czech economy of the Prague government has suggested a detachment from the Slovaks. The Czech economic circles in Slovakia see a real threat to their own financial and economic forces and are absolutely nifty against a solution of the Slovaks.
