English Translation

His wife, the Countess Elisabeth Preysing, née Vohalsky, appeared in the state police because of her general attitude towards the national socialist state. In the occupation of the Sudetenland in l938, she showed herself very Czech-friendly. The Preysing couple is opposed to the National Socialism Act and generally applies the German greeting jut. As far as it could be stated here, Prey-sing was in February 19942 a personal interview with his uncle, the Bishop of Berlin. Since he has his own property in Bürgstein in the Sudetenland and also those there. Kinsky's estates are not directly related to Preysing and Kinsky. Kinsky ́s estate management in Prague is managed by Ferdinand Graf Kinsky, owner of the Horaschdo- witz domain, for the 7-year-old principality Prince Franz Ulrich Kinsky of Prague. In the year l940 Preysing appointed him as his central director. Perdinand Graf Kinsky is now a German and party comrade. In the former CSR he never showed his Germanism, but gave himself to the Czech-Clerical. He was very close to the former Czech-clerical People's Party "Lidova Strana" and propagated it. His wife is a born Countess Ledebour, who does not speak the Czech language. In the given situation I consider the imposition of a residence ban for the pond area against an offer of accommodation for the Sudetenland and protectorate to be a too severe measure, I intend, if From there stood! No contrary instruction is given to approve a pass for Preysing from case F. 10.2. to Pall. I will arrange for the state police surveillance in Sudetenland by means of a post-acknowledged manner.
