O Supplement II Dr. Bernhard Adolf Prag, 4 December 1942. Director General of the Association for Stephansgasse 28. Chemical and metallurgical production A/R. To 4-Group Leader State Secretary K.H. Fr a n k, Prague AI Czernin Palais. Betr.: Dr. Dembicky. 4-Group Guide! Concerning the events I know about Dr.Dembicki, I would like to inform you: Drs. Dembicky was a member of the former Burschenschaft "Caroli- na", the then most right-wing Burschenhaft on Prague soil. I am aware of the stories of my brothers that Dr. Dembicky, in the political discussions on Prague's soil, which were held at all times, has, at most, adopted an attitude which is deviating from the general view, mostly of an unacceptable nature, and has always been regarded as a political loner. He was therefore already removed from the ranks of the boys as a student, however, as I noted by questioning the oldest members, as a result of a personal offense, which does not mean an honorable dismissal. His unbearability, arrogance and better knowledge had been known as being of the most outstanding character traits. Just as unbearable as he was to his political friends, he was also known in professional circles. In the time when I was a student leader in Prague and in former Czechoslovakia - i.e. beginning from 1929/30 - Dr. Dembicky did not appear in any way in the militant national camp in Prague. There is no doubt that a political td d d of these years was not the case on Prague's ground.
