93-2 93t2 Prague, October 2, 1941. sacdatatets Soeben, 10.45 a.m., asked Minister Krejči to be received. He made the following statement: Jm order of the President Dr. Hácha he called yesterday to the Ministerial Council of Krieser to find out what possibilities of a request of grace for the former sentenced to death. He did not want to join any kind of Jntervention for Eliáš, but only to determine the legal course. Since Krieser refused to provide him with information and referred it to the Reich Protector, he had informed the President of the Republic. However, the whole matter would be settled by the fact that the Deputy Reichsprotektor informed the President on his own initiative about the condemnation of Eliáš and the possibility of grace. He, Krejëi, now had the impression that he had made a mistake with Mr Krieser through his speeches and regretted this deeply. He also asked me to receive the chairman of the National Community, Mr Fousek, for a declaration of loyalty.
