Brno, 19 November 1937 To the 191 district management of Sdp Brno The SdP students of Brno have already observed with great concern the development of the last weeks within our movement and see in particular in recent events an extremely dangerous sharpening of existing opposites. We have always maintained discipline, which can certainly be confirmed at any time by the local party bodies. However, forced by the development of the last few days, we have to take a clear stand on these events.The complete incomprehensive withdrawal of Dr. Gustav Jonak as a lecturer on university issues - and this in a form which contradicts any legality - seems to us to be quite good enough to shake our confidence in the leadership of the party in the most difficult way.We expressly note that the extremely successful cooperation between the party and us is an almost exclusive merit of Dr Jonak. With indignation, we have therefore received knowledge of his removal from office as a university officer and, as well as against his complete resignation from the party, we are in the strongest protest.Please consider this our declaration as an explicit demonstration of trust for Kam.Dr. GeJonaks. In the interest of unity and unity of the movement and cooperation of all its divisions, we must demand the immediate return and reinstatement of DrtG.Jonak into his offices.The SdP Students Brno
