English Translation

E - 2 - There are also a number of German school inspectors in use, some of whom are quite sharp, but these have found very little maladministration. All complaints found by the German inspectors are reported directly to K.. It should also be noted that, contrary to various assumptions, all teachers who had ever been organised in a communist way were eliminated. Of course, one could not look into the inner attitude of the individual. As far as school libraries are concerned, these were released until cleaning was completed - and this is stressed again,since different versions have appeared - however, the books published by the Orbis publishing house are without exception. In relation to the previous school closures: so far, besides the previous fall in Starkenbach, the closings in Kladno, as well as in Reuth have still to be mentioned. Recently, a closing had to be made temporarily in Friedeck / Handelsakademie/ and in Friedberg / Gymnasium/, but the reason is not yet known. In this respect, the district head will still inform the Oberlandrat there. Already after the Kladno case, the ministry has been working on the various local departments in order to ensure that the Leherschaft is to be warned in all its forms and accepted. Also, the professors had already addressed their members in an appeal, which appeared in the relevant journal; likewise, the elementary school teachership had intended, but this had been restrained, why, K. does not know. /I then explained that the wording was far too weak and in one place almost ironicizing/. In the subsequent Wethsel speech, Scheinost /Lidové Listy/ demanded that the parents' associations should also be explained in all forms. K. replied that this was not possible at first, since the state of emergency still existed and meetings were forbidden. Scheinost then complained that the constant change of teachers in Prague /up to four times within a school year / had a very damaging effect, since no one had any more greater interest in exerting a special influence on his pupils. K. It is clear that this provision, which is intended to make this change, is a mistake made by the local city council at the time when it was set up. Scheinost: It is necessary that no old age, but young teachers with new thinking, should be employed in order to get the city youth on the right paths.
