STATE SECRETARY FOR THE RUSSIAN PROTECTOR IN THINGS AND IN MORAVA, PRAGUE, inv. 2185, sig. 109-9/9 (damaged)
English Translation
74 2 - Pilsen: The order of i-group leader K.H.Frank has so far only caused a considerable stir in Pilsen itself and in some places strong fears, Czech intelligence circles are explained to this effect that the Secretary of State herewith once again showed himself in his real attitude, since he let Czechs lock up for nothing and again nothing. However, he had done a bad service to the German cause. The Czechs were anti-German and will always show this as they could. The order would be unfounded because Benesch had given a very insignificant speech and, on the contrary, asked the Czechs for calm and prudence. The Czechs believe that for the time being a thousand people have been held liable in Prague, but the action will certainly extend to the entire province. Königgrätz: The order has not shown any significant effects. As far as the relevant broadcast was observed by Czechs, these were speechless about the communication. Recently, there are fears. Loyal Czechs said that such measures could be foreseen on the basis of the present behaviour of the Czech people. I g l a u : Among the German population, the order of the Secretary of State K.H.Frank, published in the newspapers and on radio, against Czech intellectuals from Benesch's circle of friends, found lively echoes and approval. This measure should have come for a long time.
