METROPOL-GESELLSCHAFT /E.Matthes& Co. Zeitungs-Ausauschnitt-Büro Tel. 91 05 20 Berlin-Charlottenburg 2 Uhlandstr. 184 Die Zeit Zeitung: Reichenberg Place of publication: - 1. 11. 1944 Date: Location: OR9Y 106 After the n 28. October Berlin, 31. October There is great disappointment in the circle of London's Czech emigrants: their hopes have not been fulfilled, the 28. On Sunday evening, Minister Moravec pointed out this in a radio address. The Prague government, he said, was particularly pleased that the Czech people had shown prudence and maintained exemplary calm on that day. He also talked about the failed attempt to insurrection in Slovakia. Indeed, the men around Benesch have built all their plans on this attempt and hoped that from him far-reaching effects would also result for the protectorate. The 28th october should be for them a kind of stabbing and trial day. On this day, not only the reach of the Slovak events, but also the true attitude of the Czech Volkes should be shown. Well, it has shown itself and, as Minister Moravec said, quite clearly brought to the attention of the emigrants in London, that they have no idea of the true mentality of the Chechnya and Slovak people. In the centre of Czech-Bolshevik gangs in Slovakia, in the city of Neusohl, 28 October should also be celebrated with all pomp and great agitational presentation. The leaders of the volumes had already completed the plans for this; but the German associations of the army and the armed forces led by the German commander in Slovakia, 4-upper group leader and general of the police Höfle, have thoroughly crossed them. Involved by the German troops supported by units of the Slovak Domobrana and the Hlinkagarde, and without prospect of rescue or assistance, on the eve of 28 October it preferred the "government" of the bandits to flee from Neusohl, leaving behind their helpers and military leaders in travel planes specially provided for them. There was no octo-ber, as they had planned it; for this Neusohl experienced a true celebration of liberation and greeted with gratitude the incoming German troops. The bandit chiefs had flown from where they had come: to the east, to the Bolshevik stage. The OKW report today reports figures illustrating the disaster that hit the bandits.
