STATE SECRETARY FOR THE RUSSIAN PROTECTOR IN THINGS AND IN MORAVA, PRAGUE, inv. 2186, sig. 109-9/10
English Translation
When the latter encountered difficulties in London because of Katyn, he immediately broke off the negotiations with the Poles on the creation of a Chechiah Polish confederation after the war in order to stab the Bolshevik map, and at the expense of Poland's efforts to exploit the conflict to improve its territory. Such events are recorded with the greatest scepticism in this country, even by its former supporters, according to the experience of the past. Benesch's agility for the Soviet Union during his journey through the United States of Northern America has also attracted attention among the Czech people of the Brotektorat, but not in the sense hoped for by Benesch. The techechen are extremely concerned about the game of Benesch with Moscow and strongly opposed in the broadest circles. The ground-rooted Czech people, with their strong sense of family, private property, service and ascent, do not want to know about Bolshewiemus in its overwhelming majority. Today there are only small illegal communist groups in the protectorate, the broad mass of the techech population rejects the delivery of their homeland to the Bolsheviks by Benesch. It is only too good to know that, when Benesch asks for his ego-ism, he is always willing to associate himself with the devil. Such and similar statements have been made to me in recent times by leading personalities of the former Czech agricultural party, the Social Democrats, the Catholic Czech People's Party and the Czech Trade Party. 3. Question i Has the idea of the Reich taken root in the Czech people since the establishment of the Protectorate? Have the advantages of belonging to the rich prevailed in the consciousness of the Czech population? Are the masses behind the politicians of the President of the Stsats Hacha?
