STATE SECRETARY FOR THE RUSSIAN PROTECTOR IN THINGS AND IN MORAVA, PRAGUE, inv. 2633, sig. 109-12/281
English Translation
39 Subject: Calendar "German East". 1.) No thoughts are raised against the article "The Czech Hus". 2.) The "principles" contain statements that refer to a possible political transformation of Bohemia and Moravia. In particular, an apostolate of Bohemia is obviously advocated by Moravia. a discussion about the future of the Protectorate is not desirable, the "principles" in the calendar should be out of place. I therefore propose that, instead of this contribution, two key sentences should be drawn from the speech of the Secretary of State: 'The Protectorate was established in a particular political situation in the Empire and has received its current legal and political order from this situation. The task of every German and European policy of the future must be to bring the lasting peace in the heart of the continent to the politically troubled and therefore peaceful space that has been around for centuries; this means the final solution to the Czech problem". "Since Europe can no longer live without a strong German Reich without the Czechs, but in the future it will no longer be possible to live without the strong German Empire, seven million Czechs must recognize the absolute priority of 85 million German people and subordinate their particular interests to the interests of the Reich." 3.) No concerns are raised against the contribution "Czech Legionaries". However, the quotation of the Secretary of State K.H.Frank on the reverse is to be replaced by another one. From here it is proposed: Eapy "The legionaryism is regarded by us as a troublemaker of the new development, not from a bitter memory of the former war opponent, but because of the proven and proclaimed continuation of the Legionary ideology in the Protectorate! For this reason they have become intolerable for all future." Prague, 17 October 194l Xoma
