No reports of Tomek's political activity abroad are available so far. d) Bucharest, Strada Bursei 5 Supervisory Board Committee : Franz C h y t i 1 , Boh. K u č e - ra, C.A.

The Legio bank in Prague, with the centre of Prague, is intended to be a centre of illegal activity in the Czech Republic. A report points out that the branch of Legio Bank in Bratislava supports members of the Czech resistance groups and Czech refugees from the Protectorate financially and enables them to continue their journey to Hungary against the Czech Legion in France. The director of the Legio bank in Bratislava, H l o u š e k, who provides Czech refugees with money and, for further instructions, refers Dr. Szt r a k a to the bank's official. Dr. Szt- also gave the Czech refugees a slogan by which they had to report to the French embassy in Budapest for further transport to the Czech legion. The action taken by the Legio Bank branch in Bratislava is all the less surprising since the general director of Legiobank in Prague, Kh y n , had already been arrested by the state police for fi nancing the Czech secret organisation in the Protectorate for a long time. There is a strong suspicion that other leading figures of the Legio Group are involved in such actions, especially various dedicated agents of the Khyn, such as the Director General of Legio Insurance, Dr. Vladimír P o 1 á k , who is a pronounced protégé des Khyn. It is remarkable that the behind man of the Khyn is the Czech Jew B e c k, who still plays an influential role in the Legio group and is in family relations with Dr. Polák. - 30 -
