18 Report on the situation in the company Orbis. - 3 November l940. Despite the cessation of the "Národni noviny", employment is not bad, but of course it cannot be said that the ability to perform is fully exploited. All in all, the staff acknowledges the performance of the manager not only to get over this considerable time, but also to make new hirings. Although there are still complainers, but very clever and unattainable. The boards "Hled- te si práce - necht politikařeni" are considered and as before no longer openly politicized. However, in this respect, I only want to make a very cautious and with all reservation a statement that allows further conclusions, for example on the overall attitude of the Czech followers. Very good impression seems to have been made of the following small support during the search for housing or in accidents /Vacek/, which individual followers were given by the manager. Mr Trefný, the Chairman of the Works Committee, makes no secret of his respect for the manager of the company, who took the staff in front of heavy redundancies, he is always very proud when he can speak to Mr Rudl. The undersigned also endeavours to work imperceptibly for a better attitude to the following. Last week, the works committee also announced the organisation of German courses. Ieh was very skeptical about the matter at first, because a few days ago, for example, Brider Klub wanted to report to the newspaper and Masehinen participants, there was nothing out of it. Quite different in the Orbis. So far, we have reported that there has been more than one hundred and twenty/members of our society - a number that even the greatest optimist did not expect, because in the composition of our staff /many legionaries and Sokoln/ had to be prepared for another result. A capable teacher could get a lot out of it. Otherwise, nothing special would be to judge. Heil Hitler! Wratil.
