"In 1948 the party already ceased to exist, but stil we managed to organise regional gathering of the young national socialists led by Bohouš Vágner. So there we agreed, the four of us, Emil Ransdorf from the central committee of young national socialists, Čeněk Klíma, I believe he was the head of the young national socialists in Hlinsko, me and another one, I do not recall who he was exactly from Chrudim. So we agreed to keep meeting still. And of course we did not know whether we would do any anti-state activities, inform each other about the state-of-play. So that was in the year 1948, when we agreed to meet up outside the grounds of the national socialists, as they were cancelled and the now Czech socialists established. So actually we met several times and informed each other on what was going on. There were four of us. But soon, probably after three meetings, we agreed to cancel it too, as we did not get any contacts to inform us more, and our friend, Čeněk Klíma emigrated, I think to Canada or the New Zealand.“

"That proved back in 1955, when based on the state security knowledge about the fact we had meetings with other three co-mates from the national socialistic youth, the state security knew about it and based on that I was aprroached to sign cooperation with them. As I refused to do so, the chief, I believe he was called Špaček, told me to get the heaviest stone and jump into the deepest waters, as the state security was going to follow me all the time.“
