Copy of the annex to the letter: Representative of the Federal Foreign Office No.4787/D.P.4.v.16.5.40. PI Czechoslovak foreign press Berlin,2the 18.4.1940. Press report No.17 " Ceskoslovensky Boj." ertr percaneicte "La Cause Checoslovaque". a.....iog 1 DnJai The weekly newspaper of the Czechoslovak foreign action continues its violent attacks against the Czech anti-Semitic opposition group "Vlajka" and against Tuka, Mach, Tiso and Catlos in its other numbers available from March and early April and brings forth numerous atrocities about the suppression and economic plundering of the Protectorate and Slovakia and about the progressive violent Germanization. All articles dealing with the future after the war do not go beyond general indications, which demand Czechoslovakia within the borders of Munich. Nor is any political programme developed in concrete form, as was the case with emigration in the world war. Dataus is likely to conclude with a rather perplexity and differences of opinion within the Czechoslovak emigrants. Thus, no concrete explanation of the future relationship between Czechs and Slovaks is missing. It is limited to promising that the two peoples would once have the opportunity to fend for their mutual relationship through democratic majority decision.In detail, the brief content of the present consequences is the following: The number of 8.3.: Wickham Steed writes about Masaryk. Slavik calls Masaryc as a symbolic link between Czechs and Slovaks. He received honorary doctorates from 5 American universities in June of the previous year. In honor of Masaryks' 90th birthday, the government of the State of New York declared March 7th as the day of the Czechoslovak Republic. / V0V S-HX S SE
