English Translation

- 31 - 18 from the munitions factories in Germany about the production of ammunition, about every new cultivation of these factories, about the movements of d:otsch troops in the country, and we handed over this power to the Allies, so we did not get anything from the Allied for nothing. It is the question whether we are the greater Allies' gleiters, or the Allians our debtors. After the war in January I received a letter from Borger in which he wished me luck for our victories and was looking forward to visiting Prague. He wrote: "I am more Czechoslovak than Russian, especially after what happened in Russia." After a week he wrote: 'I am an unfortunate person; as you know, I have been here because of Lidka, and now I have received a letter from the Iidka that she married herself,' He met with another blow: our authorities in Holland refused to issue him a passport to the Czech Republic. Moreover, among the couriers, the report of the courier Kvíčala is very important, she was sent from America in Jtli 19l6, she was not one of the first, but the first to travel to Europe according to a certain agreement concluded between me and the English admiralty. The agreement with the English was as follows: "We send a courier ait Austrian or other passport from America and give him compromising letters or books. They hold the neutral ship, and they seek the lady whom we will call (or the Lord) and arrest her as a German or Austrian spy. After the arrest, you take them to the English shore, where you hand them over to the military authorities that take them back to Prof. Masaryk's apartment in London. At the same time, you bring them to justice and find them innocent and dismiss them as innocent, return them to a ship that goes on to the European shores.
