- 3 - 32 culminated in an assassination attempt in which he was killed. "Nedêlni list" ironizes the second category, which, after their return, told large-mouthed legends about their heroism and had the firm plan to build a beautiful career on the basis of these legends at the expense of the state. The people did not like these "liberators" who emphasized their "liberation" at every step in a merciless way. And on these economic hunters, many of whom didn't even give a shot in the legions, wrote books of their heroism, Dr. Benesch decided to build his career. He, who perhaps had no rifle in his hand throughout his life, allowed himself to be given the legionary character and gradually increased to the rank of major. Under the influence of the protection economy, responsible, leading and economically significant bodies came to people who did not have the necessary intelligence, required education and indispensable knowledge. These privileges, not in the field but in the political battlefield, are now to be removed. The Czech people have always had a highly developed sense of justice, even then, when the sentimental song of the legionaries was parodiesed as follows: "From your red rexatéti blood, the Palais der Legionärsbank will arise." "Lidové Noviny" further writes that the extensive concrete accusations against the political activity of the second category of legionaries, which was still hostile to the Reich, are so serious that they reveal the necessity of a sweeping termination. It is necessary, for purely rational reasons. to find a quick and complete solution to this problem. The "Venkov" asserts in his commentary that "the whole Czech press is concerned with the article of Mr. Staatsekretär" (also the "New Day" said yesterday in Dr.K.H.'s keynote paper that the statements of the Secretary of State were noted throughout the Czech press), but this is not the case, as mentioned above. Furthermore, the paper notes that in the Czech nation there has long been dissatisfaction with the preferential right and the advantages that the legionaries had received, and especially about those who were willing executors of Mr. Benesch's wishes. The paper further underlines that in agricultural circles a sober view of the new facts that emerged in 1938 and 1939 was first apparent.
