English Translation
27 - 3 - Nebesky had also expressed the view that it would be best if the responsible representatives of the people would come together and ask for a direct debate with .the German officials, especially with the state secretary and event. also with the Reichsprotector. The purpose of this debate would be to define the principles according to which Czech politics should take concrete action. Dotent Dr. Kliment had assured Nebesky that he would communicate everything to the President of the State and still advise him to discuss with the President. Kliments further informs that a similar request had already been made by Dr. Mr Hawelka, in the sense that the government would have to speak with Mr. Redchsprotector and the Secretary of State, quite frankly. It must be clear that this could no longer be the case. Dr. Crha (editor-in-chief of Narodnípolitica) spoke with the Minister of Agriculture, Count Bubna. Bubna believes that the article of the Secretary of State has a deeper meaning than laxxk's attack on the legionaries. The state secretary knows very well that the legionsars today as a group have more moral influence than a real one. There was therefore an appeal to the spirit and perhaps also to an attack, the actual connections of some people of the type of legionaries with the emigrants abroad. In this he sees dån main-sähliche An- jes- ich für den kritische Standpunk der Deutschen. A crisis could arise on this but Bubna believes that the Germans do not even wish for it. But Bubna had only visited them twice. Bubnah had also been asked by Ing. Elias about his position, but Bubne had explained that he could not express himself about it because of the lack of sufficient information. He was therefore asked by Elias to speak with the President, who gave a lot at his point of view. Elias had asked Bubna if he would agree with the government's deportation.
