English Translation
YLa in the 4th year of war - to leave the administrative implementation and handling of the legal regulations largely protectorate organs of Czech ethnicity. In this respect, however, the interpenetration of the autonomous authorities with German authorities, which followed in the course of the administrative reform, now guarantees that all measures of autonomous administration are geared to the interests of the Reich. Their compliance is therefore a self-evident obligation for all German people. In addition, every German must constantly bear in mind, especially in the case of his behaviour towards Czechs, that he represents the Reich in his person and that the carelessness of the individual German is also suitable to damage the German reputation. It is of course that German nationals are strongly protected against attacks from the Czech side. It is, however, unreliable that they do not take action for self-help, but follow the path of complaint provided for, and that they may be certain that their ideas will be examined with all due care. On the other hand, I expect that the German population will impose the necessary discipline and agree with legitimate orders, even those from a Czech institution. The German membership of Vclks is not a free letter for allegations and interferences of the legal system; insofar as a special right for Germans exists, dieş is expressly defined. A behavior which is detrimental to the reputation of the German-Tumsi . above all in the public sphere - will be punished in the future unintentionally and without regard to rank or position.
