English Translation

-4- of the sabotaging behaviour of the population in the delivery of cattle and in the reporting of harvest quantities ordered a new census for the course of October, in which last time penalty re-registrations can take place. This was urgently necessary in the interest of ensuring the endangered food supply. Individual reports show now already most contemplative effect. It can already be overlooked that, e.g. in the field of the notification of pigs, the originally reported number is exceeded by thousands of pigs. 6.) The sabotage activity in the Protectorate has in general, except for small individual actions, completely stopped except for the cutting through of brake hoses of the track, which systematically and planfully in large numbers - apparently uniformly controlled, still takes place. Extensive defense measures are in preparation. Some signs indicate that these sabotages were carried out by Russian parachute groups. 7.) As a short report to the announced report on the resistance movement, I report that in the last few days, four complete transmitter apparatuses were raised by two organized radio groups (sometimes using weapons against the angry defending illegals). One group was in contact with England. She had two English officers with Czech passports and in civil, who escaped half a year ago from the German officer prisoner camp Frankfurt a.M. - The last air attack on the Protectorate is demonstrably initiated by them (special report follows).
