44a students in Prague are quite satisfied. This is not only my own impression, but it is also confirmed to me by a number of professors who came to Prague from the various universities of the Old Kingdom. On the other hand, Howorka is quite right when he complains that the selection of students from the Old Kingdom to Prague is not yet as we would like it to be. This has various causes, as their essential - let us call war. The sometimes questionable selection "by peers has been made more difficult by the fact that in the student organizations of the Reich unexperienced younger semesters have to take over the positions of their comrades in the field and that just many of our best students are reluctant to "read" themselves. The whole selection system needs reform In my opinion, today's regulations prevent some students who are particularly suitable for us from coming to Prague. What is possible here to improve conditions at present, The Reichsstudentenführung is also trying in this direction. S 3.) Many of the old- Reich German BS300 students coming to Prague today are undoubtedly not willing to participate in student small-scale work, because they simply do not have time to do so. I mention here as an example only the SS-Obersturmführer, who are now commanding my assignment to study in Prague, who must do their legal doctorate here in the shortest time and far they rightly stand on the point, UP that their scientific work is folk work in the best sense of the word. Numerous other students from the Old Reich are only exempted from military service for a short time to finish their studies, in order to then be placed as a physician or otherwise as in a corresponding place. ./. 41210
