STATE SECRETARY FOR THE RUSSIAN PROTECTOR IN THINGS AND IN MORAVA, PRAGUE, inv. 1248, sig. 109-4/1002
English Translation
czech case was immediately recognized and worthwhile by being appointed as a very young police officer as head of the Prague Police Directorate. The fact that he was an extremely active member of the Maffia is a fact never denied and quite openly admitted, which makes it seem strange, however, TpeI gOE JaDVt, that in the present wartime such a man is placed on a highly responsible position, on which he can only take up his activity from the world war too easily. Of course, I have no insight into the actual context of this appointment, but the impression for an outsider is that there is a gross abuse of trust and a gross deception by the rich German authorities and that an intervention of the imperial power is necessary and must also be taken against those who have dared to place a personality with such a past, which they are of course well aware of, on such a post at this time. That on the Czech side the fact of calm acceptance of this appointment will only be laughed at as a sign of the great naivety of the leading German authorities is understandable. b I can only again warn on this occasion of the insistence of confidence towards the Czechs. If today's "New Day" occasionally refers in an official way to the communication of the abolition of the right to stand, that the last events were really only individual elements and that the great majority of the Czech people were absent from the activity of these elements, such an omission in the press may perhaps be justified with regard to hostile and neutral foreign countries, but the authoritative German authorities may not be unclear about the fact that things really are quite different.
