- 2 - the OLB Iglau shows that Kapras, who is allegedly himself one of the greatest chauvinists, wanted to put himself in the right light by this decree in authoritative German authorities. Furthermore, the view prevails that the port screams of the hostile attitude and attitude are not contained as long as the protectorate government exists. In OLB Ostrava, the ultimate cha- rector of the decree, in turn, raised great fears. Professors on their own initiative, in the middle of the seminar, conducted a study of the pupils and benches according to forbidden material. In addition, there is a rumor among the teachers in Ostrava that in the near future courses will be taken to retrain teachers to work as railway or postal officials if school closures are to occur. The teachers of the OLB Klattau again generally believe that the reading of the call would have little purpose, since the blocking of all middle and specialized schools is to be expected without this 1.12.1941. Especially the former middle school teachers expect with certainty the school closures and for this reason only no coal supply for the winter is created. Czech teachers from Kremsier (OLB Ojmütz) believe that teachers who continue to give rise to complaints are being covered up in labour camps. In general, the Czech professorship of Tabors does not expect much of the necessary re-education and education of the pupils in a German-friendly sense, since the pupils are too intimidated from the past in order to get to the right position on their own consideration. It is interesting to note that various Czech teachers present an unprecedented courtship of Germans and greet well-known Germans of the place from afar. To the Czech pupils, especially to the recent years, the call of the Minister of Education did not make a significant impression.
