Venkov 16.I.1941. 42 LEGIONARSKA. We had a legal question in our domestic political life 20 years ago. It was when it was so called legionary laws and in public there was a fierce opposition against the creation of specially privileged castes, which were to be rewarded for their work in legions with great material privileges at the expense of other elements of the nation. From that time, Dr. Rašina's pa-mint statement for work for the country was not paid and in the then angry atmosphere was also born an assassination of Dr. Rashin. A special post-enthusiasm for legionnaires in the nation was then prose-zeno and since then from the power posices, such established, was influenced increasingly by the Czech post-lithic and even the whole public life in the Czech Republic so called legionnal actors. Now the inner life of our nation is once again stirred up by a legionnaire question. This time, not only is this question to be cut, but to be resolved uncompromisingly. Today, they understand themselves that these things are handled thoroughly and consistently. For the situation is completely reversed compared to the conditions 20 years ago. Now the legion- lamentation question is raised fundamentally and with all determination with the German party, and it itself means that with the status of legion - lamentation and with the whole legend that has been constructed around it, it will be charged without half-heartedness. Indeed, he would be a fool to think on the Czech side even today that Rishi, in which we have been included for almost two years and which is precisely for-doing the greatest war struggle of his history, will be devoid of any other political idea-logic than the ideology of Reichs, that they will continue to be left in the public life of our countries in the influential places of the professors and servants of the sta- rés regime, which has been swept away into the abyss at a new time, and that in the requirement of adaptation to new conditions will be allowed to some traditional recollection of Siberian anabasi of no exceptions. It is quite clear: Reich's thoughts and legionnaires' ideas are the opposites that cannot live next to each other. Legionary ideology is not possible next to the imperial ideology. If the nation is to be raised for the religious idea, it is natural that le-ginners will not be appointed for these tutors, but that the place of legionns will be another, who are not associated with the old politician-who and social order. However, it would be wrong to believe that dealing with the legionary question is only a matter of imperial or non-nite, virtually Gruppenführer of the state mysterious - Ka K. H. Frank, who has raised this question with his article Irrtum im Grundsätzlichen © January No.Böhmen und Mähren. The great response of this article in the press and in the people's debates shows that, in addition to the political side, there is also a matter of social well-being against the anti-social, intersected phenomenon of legionnaire's old ideology and prakse. The sustainability of a privileged so-ciálni built legionary society in Czech public life appears before our eyes after 20 years in sharp light again. He again performs in the whole shouting of antisocialism - the importance of the former preference of the legionary class, but also the political survival of legionnaire myth in our new relationships, which are built on the basis of cohabitation with Risa and cooperation with the Germans, and which exclude the anti-German attitude and persisting on a harder system. It was this system that caused many injustices to most. Czech people will remain Czech patriots even in their loyalty to Risa, but this patriot cannot be identified with legionnaireism, as was pointed out with the German opinion by Mr. State Secretary K. H. Frank. Therefore, we mention the sentence from the speech of state secretary K.H. Frank, in which he has just been picked up, is that the exclusion of legionnaires from public life and their exclusion from creative Czech Life must not and may not be felt persecuted by the Czech patriot.
