English Translation

19 2 The main influence on the stiffening of the anti-German attitude of the Czech population is still exerted primarily by the foreign radio and the whispering propagandists he owns. In particular, the establishment of the Czech-Alowec army in England, the military agreements concluded between the Czech–Slovak government in London and the English government, signed by Benesh and Halifex, as well as the correspondence between Benesch and Künig Georg, continue to nourish new hope in the memory of analogous events in 1918. Any German military or diplomatic success is trivialized, with the opposite uninterpreted. The slogans of the Aw Landsrundfunk to 28.1.194o (Foundation Day of the Czecho-Slovak Republic), to keep quiet among all Umetänder and to give no reason for German Eese takings, as well as the German police preparations for this day were the reason that this year the 28.Okto-ber went in full peace and order. The ability of illegal circles to act was ah carried out by the secret state police against the illegal technical resistance movement. It is noted that the technical people continue to show a double face, but the tight German leadership is calm and order, the Czech armaments contribution is made to the war and the Tachechian hopes are exhausted in waiting.
