English Translation
IV - ll - With the health care of the scattered German population it is still poorly ordered. All hospitals in Preßnitz, Prerau and Leipnik, as well as the Landes- nervenheilanstalt in Kremsier and Landesschwachszenanstalt in Witzmeritz are under Czech leadership: the scattered Germans are therefore forced to go to Czech treatment in case of emergency. The few German doctors who have been attracted over time have mostly been called for the Wehrnacht. The Germans therefore usually have to contact Czech doctors who do not always show the necessary care when treating German patients.For example, the Czech doctor Dr. Kubiček from Proßnitz, who had been called to a miscarriage, was the first to find out that the German patient should speak to him in Czech and carried out the examination very superficially. After he had issued a transfer certificate for the hospital, he immediately left the sick without having them monitored by a suitable person, nurse or similar until they were transferred to the hospital as a matter of course by the doctors. A considerable strengthening of the scattered German language by German influence in the autonomous administration is already largely ensured in the OLB Olmütz by the installation of numerous German representatives. Thus, over 6o German representatives and a larger number of municipal councils were appointed in the individual places of the Olb Olmutz inhabited by scattered German groups. Three Germans were also deployed in the districts of Moravian-Weißkirchen and Prerau in the next higher authority of the district representatives. Above all, the appointment of German government officials in Prossnitz, Lithuania, Leipnik, Prerau and Moravian-Weißkirchen meant a popular political strengthening of scattered Germanism in all major cities of the OLB: P r o B n i t z received a Czech majority in 1891; from that time on, the municipal committee was also Czech.
