English Translation

H.E. Count Ottokar Gzernin NEIA E. E. have judged to the signed Honorary Council the question whether you may present your dispute with Count Polzer-Hloditz on a joint honorary council. The signed Honoral Council has answered this question in a negative manner, because your case cannot be dealt with in accordance with the general rules of honour. Although individual sparks of the above-mentioned dispute lie outside the political sphere, the latter nevertheless has a political background and the signed Council of Honour considers it impossible for dymastic reasons to submit the dispute to the joint Council of Honor. The Signed Council of Honour also declares that it does not recognize any forum from the same above-mentioned Grinden about the legality of his decisions. Neither Wber the decision of 7 December 1928 nor about the one of today. Hiemit declares the Signed Honorary Officer the Angegeldehoit for ab- 340 schlodsen. Vienna, the 13th Jiiner 192e.
