In this lodge he played a leading role both in Agram and in Leitmeritz. His connections with the former Schlaraffia members are still present today. He is very close friends with the Jewish Schlaraffe Dr. Rudolf Porges from Leitmeritz, in whose house he lives with his family. Furthermore he maintains close contact with the Schlaraf fen Dr. Kleinschmidts, a former valiant functionary of the All-Schleeraffen in Prague, who held high positions under Benesch and is now working in the Prime Minister's office. According to the V.O.E.'s own statements, the former Schlarafen in Prague should come together again and again and that such a meeting had taken place e.g. at the l1.7.4o in the local Vaňha on Wenceslas Square. It is also significant that he provides his signatures with various cabalistic snorts and, questioned about it, explained that in each case the Schlaphafia-Uhu is marked, that is a secret sign for initiates.

It is also characteristic of his Jewish friendliness that, for example, he strongly campaigned for a full Jewish woman from Leimeritz, Boruvka, the widow of a retired officer who had previously been in Vienna.
