The political career and life of the second Czechoslovak president Edvard Benes (1884-1948) showed many ups and downs. And so did also his personal and official files and archives. His written documents saw different stages of treatment according to the existing political and social upheavals and changes. Today, most of the documents relating to his person are available in the Masaryk Institute as well as in the Archives of the Czech Academy of Sciences, the National Museum, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the President's Office. The study deals with E. Benes's correspondence and explains the complex situation of the source base that researchers and editors have to face. The authors follow the history and the method of professional treatment of the correspondence available in the main part of the Benes Archive Files, and draw attention to additional correspondence available in other parts of the Files and in other archives as well. The previous editing work with Benes' correspondence is also described

This study deals with the activities of the Polish Socialist Worker's Party in the years 1921-1925, from the departure of a large number of its followers to the communists in 1921 to the Czechoslovak parliamentary election in November, 1925. The Polish socialists were in a very difficult situation, because they had to fight at the same time for the social interests of Polish workers, for the national interests of Polish minority, and against the communists. They cooperated with other parties of Polish minority in the fight for national rights, but they could not ignore the existing ideological differences. Polish socialists tried to cooperate with the Czechoslovak Social Democracy, too, but because there were great ethnical disputes between Czechs and Poles in the Teschen region of Silesia these efforts failed. At the parliamentary election in November 1925, Polish socialists approached, after a serious internal controversy, a coalition of other Polish parties.

The diplomatic relations between Czechoslovakia and France saw a dramatic decline after February 1948. The involvement of several French diplomats in the preparation of escape of J. Sramek and F. Hala impaired the mutual relations of both countries already in spring 1948. The people's democratic Czechoslovakia, whose foreign policy was now controlled from Moscow, systematically reduced the diplomatic representation of capitalist states in its territory. In 1951, after a secret police intervention, the French consulate in Bratislava was closed, and in a couple of weeks only the embassy in either country's capital remained, dealing with the most urgent matters only. The main focus of mutual relations moved over to the unofficial level of contacts between the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia and the Communist Party of France. Starting from 1954, Czechoslovakia restored the official contacts with the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the rapprochement efforts culminated with a 1956 agreement on exchange of parliament delegations. Further development of mutual relations, however, was interrupted by the events taking place in Hungary and Egypt in autumn 1956. As a result, the relations just restored declined and reached the freezing point again.

Two new documents are published here providing important information about the visit of President Edvard Benes to the USA and Canada in May-June 1943. The author of the first, quite detailed report describing the President's visit to the United States and the first comments was one of Benes' closest collaborators during the first phase of resistance movement Jan Papanek, a long-time Czechoslovak consul in Pittsburg and later a leading worker of the Czechoslovak Information Service in New York. The document describes also the course of the visit, records the President's important speeches and thus completes the materials published before, which mostly concerned his talks with American statesmen. The other report included here was written by the first Czechoslovak Ambassador to Canada Frantisek Pavlasek, and describes the course of and responses to Benes' visit to the Maple Leaf Country. Both documents extend our current knowledge of the responses to Benes' visits to a number of Czech and Slovak communities as well as to other refugee and exile groups, such as Polish, Ruthenian and Hungarian.
