South Africa had a stronger echo, because on Saturday REUTERS sent me a telegram of the following content: T A A A ANTISEMITIC EXCESSES BRATISLAVA FOR SOUTHAFRICA" )1° On the second day of our stay in Pressburg, Mr. Kitano and I visited Minister TUKA, who insisted so strongly that we accompany him on his "ice to Banska Stiavnica that a rejection was not possible. In Banska Xtxxinex Stiavnica, Minister Tuka asked Mr Kitano, after Secretary of State Karmasin, to speak. In a brief speech in Japan (translated by Party Secretary Galan), Mr Kitiano said that Japan was still a small state 80 years ago, but is now strong. He then celebrated the strength of the Berlin-Rome-Tokyo axis, to which Slovakia also belongs. Kitano's in the gallery was a propagandistic success. However, in the hustle and bustle of the numerous receptions, it was not possible to have a reasonable conversation with any of the other personalities. Sano Mach - despite his promise to dedicate a quarter of an hour to us - expressed itself "in English". Despite some of the Libenswertigkeiten, which were proved to Mr. KITANo, the Slovak gentlemen failed in all the more important things. I even had trouble to have Mr. Kitano brought to Budapest, as he had been promised, as otherwise he would have had to leave Bratislava early on Sunday. I had to "privately" agree on this with a government chauffeur. 1
