Pa 843/44 Elng 19. APR. 1944 Dear Ministerial Councillor ! At the meetings of the People's German Research and Publication Offices in Prague, on the basis of the undersigned's presentation, which pointed to the great importance of the news on the Protectorate for European public opinion on the reorganization of Europe, a strengthened observation of the press of Czech emigration was decided. While we have been able to maintain the press of Polish emigration on a regular basis so far, unfortunately, the Czech material has remained mostly out. Provision has been made to remedy this deficiency. I would like to hand over a first delivery to you. I am at the same time following a suggestion from the Ministerial Director Dr. For your information, I also attach a transcription of our translations and a booklet "Selection from the materials of the publication office". Viżleicht also finds your interest in the enclosed text about the Prague University by the professors Dawson and Boyce, which appeared in an English publishing house and experienced two editions.
