English Translation
27 - 24 - Czech ministers fled Dr. F e i e r a b e n d and had close personal relations with former President Beneš. In 1938 he worked as an informant of the reprimanded English House member M a n d_e r, to whom he provided the relevant documents for his well-known interpellations. A close friend and co-worker of him was the official of the export institute, Dr. K u n o š i , who in the first days of the Protectorate fled abroad to France and his parents remained in Prussia. Kunoši is Hungarian-Slo-Wakian Jew. The confidant of the Dr.Kose is Mrs. Gabriele P l a c h e t k o v á , geb. M o j t o v á , Slowakin.She was formerly employed at Bata-Zlin and is called the courier of the Bata plant by employees of the Czech export institute in Vienna. She travelled repeatedly to Slovakia in autumn and winter l939 and it is believed that she brought news abroad for Dr. Kose and Dr. Kunoši, which may have been directed by the parents of Dr.Kunoši in Prussia. The export institute maintains a number of foreign representatives, collective representatives, correspondents and honorary correspondents abroad. Some of these people have certainly been found to be hostile to the rich, and some have been shown to be the closest collaborators of the Czech action abroad, and the exact evidence of their connection with the Prague export institute has not yet been established. Among the foreign representatives is the representative in the United States of America, Ing. Mikulaš Má r a in Chicago. Ing Mára was the representative of the ex port institute in U.S.A. on 15 March 1939. After March 15, 1939, he refused to hand over the pavilions to German authorities and began to work politically in the same line as Beneš, whose supporters he is one of, in a hostile sense. At the end of l939 he retired as a representative of the export institute and only devoted himself to political activity.He was a friend of the director J i n d r ák who worked in the Prague export institute.
