Despite the public calls to keep calm, and the insurance, lemy. the fact that the existing facilities will be alerted in due time in the event of an air hazard, it has not yet been possible to prevent the population from becoming alarmed by blind alarms every day. Since the 2o.li. Among the Czechs, during the assessment of the attack, a significant change can be observed, while, unmistakably after the attack only by the parties concerned, the bombing of the city was described as the terror action of the Anglo-Amcricans and the rest of the population in general showed the greatest restraint in their position, the attack is now seen more by the majority of the Czech population of Brno under the impression of the damage caused by the terrorist attack. Especially the fact that in addition to residential areas, hospitals and other public institutions serving the welfare of the population have been completely destroyed, has strengthened the Czechs in this opinion. Strongly impressed is also shown by the more or less damaged churches, in which many Czechs repeatedly find themselves. Above all, the older Czechs are pointed out in sharp words to the damaged churches that this course of action of Anglo-Americans is pure barbarism. Kenn- - 2 St.M.V F-57/449. 227 1399/44
