H A Tehechischer Gewährsmann reports about a conversation with -Beran, which he had on 27.9.1944 at the station in Strakonitz. Beran is physically fresh and mentally active. In Pratzeowitz it would be nice to him. He gets up late, then complete the correspondence and if it is nice, he goes to the forest. Furthermore, he does domestic work. After Strakoniz he does not come at all. His only trip was from Pratzeowitz by train to Strakonitz station and back again. Beran had not wanted to talk about political matters at all. He expressed himself in the sense that one had to judge all events soberly and avoid everything that could bring the people to disaster. To this realization he had come through his stay in prison. He then frowned on what the Minister of State and the President did. He had been allowed to visit the President of State, but the people from the presence of the President had prevented this visit. Before leaving for the country, lecturer Dr. Kliment wanted to talk to Beran at the Moldovan Railway Station. He gave him a very warm hand. When Beran asked him about the president, Kliment expressed himself that the president had already been elected at that time, he had been ten years older, today he was like 85-year-old Greis. 6f66 E-MPM
