To the National Socialist German Workers' Party, district head Iglau z.Hd. of the district head Pg- Dr. Franz S i e g 1 I g l a u Betr.i L ös e l, Dr., Pranz, Professor, born 2o.2.l9ol in Ig Lau, resident Iglu, Stürzergasse 9. Vorg.: Without. A superior body requests for a review of the rumors in circulation against Dr. Francis Lösel. Lösel was accused of being a former social democrat. The investigations carried out here have revealed that Lösel had previously worked as a middle school teacher in Troppau, Freu-dental and Ellbogen. He already belonged to the German migrant bird in Brno in l97 and was also active in the Völkisch-oriented gymnastics club at that time. When he was transferred to Pilsen in 1928, he joined the Social Democratic Party there, fearing otherwise that he would lose his existence because of his earlier activities. The idea of the Böhmerland movement was also in agreement with this opinion that its supporters must, as far as possible, enter all political parties in order to overcome the parties from within. After a short time, Lösel had quarrelled with the punctuators of the Social Democratic Party in Pilsen because, as a pronounced anti-Semite, he tried to displace the leading Jews. He was also the only German teacher to have the courage to rebel against the Jewish leadership of the State Reform Realgymnasium in Pilzen. He also represents the Czechs with regard to German interests. -2-
