223 -5 - of the bad material used in construction? The German radio reported: The MG of one of our bombers became unable to fight during an attack on London by frost, because the temperature was far below zero degrees. Will the German machines be caused to fly in such a great height by the flak fire? Lecture: Today it is a year since the lives of so many of our students fell victim to the criminal shootings of the Germans. In pain today the whole people are grieving for their sacrificed kimders. The gentlemen who were still present in Prague: Major Kout ?, MP Laušman and Major ? Drtina is commemorating these days: Lecture in the form of a conversation: No one can understand that a year has passed since we happened to meet at Karlsplatz near Czech technology, where German Ss-people armed to their teeth were then standing. It had only been a few hours since the German radio had announced that 9 Czech students were shot. We didn't say a word about it, only handed us our hands silently and pressed them for a long time. I think we both had tears in our eyes at the time. As today, I remember when you said to me: That's nothing, that has to be endured. They do not know what they are doing. This will never be forgotten in our people. This is a step that the Germans have taken, which will stand for all the future between our two peoples. I remember this and am even more convinced than at that time that the Czech people will not forget the Bestialiäte, with which they fought against our Intelli genz. The Czech people knew very well that with this act the Germans pursued the goal of eradicating his Ínte-ligenz, destroying his national culture, and the reason for the fact that the Czech people became a people of workers and slaves. This blow struck all strata of the people. I am convinced that there was no city and no village in which a family member did not weep for several children. Can you imagine how this middleman felt when they only received this one message saying that their child would either be dead, éder in the concentration camp? Would txsx be capable of a different people than the German one? Can German mothers at all understand how they would feel in such a trap? The Germans are too bad psychologists to understand the sell of other peoples. That is why they have acted so ruthlessly against students and children and have thereby attracted the hatred of the whole people, for they were children of the entire people, children belonging to all classes. These days also brought unrest of the workers who were oppressed with them. At that time the workers wanted to initiate a general strike. The workers of the Prague factories wanted to strike and the delegates of the provincial workers came to them and announced the same will. However, there was no uniform leadership. At that time, under the pressure of the new government, the organizations had gone through a crisis of their ideology. The NS, which was to decide in the affairs of the workers, was just as powerless as the so-called government.
