Patriots who had been expelled from Prague could return, but city or country, their movements were watched by the police. Slad- kovsky, a famous journalist whose publications had been ruined by censorship, applied for a license to start a coal yard with which to support his family. The application was promptly dis- allowed. Young Fric, a literary rebel, planned to issue a volume of poetry with the collaboration of the younger set of writers. This warning was re- ceived from Vienna: " Let Fric b...eware; if he does not desist in his dangerous course, he may again find himself interned in a fortress. " The police directors and press censors suspected the loyalty of everyone who ventured to write in Bohemian. " I fail to comprehend, " remonstrated Police Di- rector Weber with Fric, " why you persist in this ridiculous nonsense; in about six years there will 62 BOHEMIANS AND SLOVAKS be nothing left of your Bohemian literature, any- way. " On another occasion Weber gave Fric to under- stand that Bohemia was a German territory, and that if he wished to live in it he must obey German laws.
