19 Already on 28.10.l939, the different 3telles in the police district Groß-Brünn were placed on iron bodies and brought to the explosion by overruning trains. At that time they were the explosion capsules used in the operation of the German Reichsbahn as a helte signal in case of danger. The perpetrators were not investigated. On 20. and 2l. April l940 now exploded in Napajedl in various places, and two in front of Czech objects, 5 detonators, without, however, practically causing material damage. In addition, 3 explosives, probably of the same kind, were thrown into a cellar of the German Municipal Theatre in Brinn, the ignite fire could be detected in time and quickly deleted. The investigations in both incidents are still under way. The leaflet propaganda had no special dimensions. New numbers have been dipped in Preg and Pisek cuf from the well-known "V Boj" transcript. The charges have been brought before the People's Court against the members of the distributed organization of the V Boj in the area of Königgrätz. In Proßnitz, an enlightened case showed once again how the population can be kept in mind by relatively few terrorists: already before the 15.3.l940 leaflets had been distributed, which contributed with the fact that the population boycotted the Wehrmacht sparnde. In the night from the l8. to the l9. ipril were again distributed several hundred leaflets "To the Pührer for the birthday" when their Hercusgeber drew the "Czech Laffia, the Czechoslovak shot in Paris". They bear witness to the deepest hatred: "We can give him nothing but hatred and pride for all that he has done to us ...., we can bring him to his birth day nothing else but the simple wish that all the wrestling around the rule in Europe would be over, that would win and would like to hit him on the head...". Under the pressure of the German government commissioner, the protectors police delivered valuable hands, so that two employees of the district hospital could be transferred as perpetrators. The leaflets had been produced in the office of the regional hospital under the use of the local typewriter and the reproduction apparatus there.
