(literally: "don't stand for any food") - they know that they are more likely to cause hunger and lack of clothing than they are later on to eternal bondage and slavery.- Nazi Germany never transforms its brutal methods into huma- nitarian food for the oppressed peoples.- Masaryk on false humanity.- Loosening the blockade would help the Nazi criminals and murderers. (Telegram of Tsch.P.B. from London) London, 8 December (Tsch. P.BA) Fer Czechoslovakian Foreign Minister Jan Masaryk issued a radio statement in London, which was also transmitted to the United States. In his explanation, Minister Jan Masaryk said the following: "I am the representative of a country that temporarily stands up for the effect of German supremacy and the British blockade. I would like to say how the Czechs in Prague and London consider this important and controversial question. I solemnly declare that the Czechoslovak nation is determined to stand up to and survive the united evil of German oppression and the British blockade, the result of which is a lack of food. It is far more advantageous from our point of view to allow ourselves to be destroyed in well-fed bodies without material necessities of life -z'pa Paa pan taaa sa aa aa. I am sure that the vast majority of the other peoples in the territories occupied by the Germans will be destroyed.
