92 - 2 - for the recognition of the Grossdeutsche Fanal. One's own political conscience had been so bad since the days of Versailles that one had no will at all to recognize. On the contrary, one was very quickly prepared to give courage to oneself, like fearful children, who walk through a dark forest and are frightened by sudden noises. At once they were ready to shout out loud that Adolf Hitler would not be Chancellor for more than six to eight weeks, because otherwise the Reich would collapse economically. The press, held by Benesch, did so in order to serve the readers abominable tales about the movement and its leaders and to fascize the success of the boycott that is now taking place against Germany. It was only a small blind minority among them, whose hearts would not have beat higher that day. The suspected severe "eits, reaction of the helpless Benesh system to the events in the empire, did not wait for them. Immediately a wave of persecution began against the entire German national life in Bohemia and Moravia. How stupid and primitive the then rulers at the Prague Castle acted, yes - as they seemed to have been with blindness, shows the most clearly the following example: In the course of the appeal negotiations in the so-called "Volkssportprozess" / which as it is well known was led against numerous young sudeten German National Socialists. and not a juridical, but a political trial was/was pronounced by the court that the empire, against the Nazis who came to power in the empire through the moral, natural sympathies to the Sudeten Germans, had interfered in the "internal affairs of Czech Slovakia" in an illegal way. Diě von Gröesenwahn obsessed Politikkaster vom Schlage Beneschs imagined in all seriousness to be able to "warn" the Third Reich in this way. In Prague the movement adolf Hitler was thought to be so obsessive in order to believe that one could afford to face such a challenge unpunished, even irrevocably.
