107 - 8 - Franz. Sender Toulouse: Pressburg is relegated to the fact that former editor-in-chief Murgaß was arrested there a few days ago for defrau- tion. Even before that, he was intended to be the head of the law firm of the president of the Slovak Republic. The arrest that has now taken place pointed out that he had fallen into disrepute. On 28! In October, an open car with three disguised figures drove through the streets of Prague, one of which was the English Prime Minister Chamberlain, who was brutally attacked and mocked. The car was filmed on his journey by a German society. In this way, a proof of the hatred of the Czechs was fgggied November. DNB Copenhagen "Berlingske Tidende": ..... Germany cannot of course think of a peace under the conditions set up by France for the restoration of Austria, Czech Slovakia and Poland; but one doubt that this idea is meant seriously. The fact is that the unification of Austria with Germany arouses greater displeasure in Italy than in England, which had had no reason to protest against the integration of the German territories of Czechoslovakia into the Reich, which the Czech parts of that country longed for, was difficult to say, as Germany stuck to the right of ownership. The restoration of Poland with the borders of 1918 could no longer be said; but one could think of the formation of a miniature Poland and a corresponding Czech Slovakia as a possibility acceptable to Germany and England. DNB Milan "Resto del Carlino": .... King George of England and Lebrun had rejected the peace step nioht in the Forn, but in substance. They demanded the re-establishment of Poland, Czechia and Austria, as if this were a single problem, as though a state, which is holding itself up to something, could be robbed shortly after a victorious campaign like the Polish of all the fruits of its victory and could also be taken away from that Austria, which had become its own territory by a legislative vote.
