Betr.: Moody effects of the article " Forgotten insight " in the " New Day " of 29. 9 1943. Introduction: Without.- As can now be seen from all parts of the Protectorate, according to these reports, the article by 4-Obergruppenführer Frank on the fifth return of the Munich conference in the Czech public sphere 187 70.43 has received very strong attention. It is reported from Prague that, contrary to the many-faced intentions of not reading the article at all, the curiosity predominated in the end, and that the article was discussed very vividly. In any case, on September 3, 1943, the statements of the Minister of State in the "New Day" by the Czech public, whether in a positive or negative sense, were discussed much more strongly than the broadcasts of the enemy radio on the same occasion. As the existence of politically unlearnable currents in the Czech people could not be expected otherwise, the article gave rise to numerous tendentious twists. Numerous individual statements proved that a large part of the Czech nation today is dominated by a large renitenz, even compared to factually held statements. X11H-47/4
