No. 61 :
M. V. De Lacroix, French Minister in Prague. to M. Georges Bonnet, Minister for Foreign Affairs. Prague, March 14, 1939.

As I had foretold, it seems to be confirmed that Germany has demanded a reshuffle of the Prague Cabinet. She is said to have made an imperative démarche yesterday evening to demand the dismissal of several Ministers' whom she considers not sufficiently docile, or suspect of sympathy with the tendencies of the former regime in their home policy.

According to certain information it even appears that a complete change in the ministry must be expected very soon. German pressure has made the small fascist groups against which measures were recently taken, increasingly bold. They maintain that General Gajda will be the next President of the Council.

LACROIX.
