Vojta Bene\u0161 - 60 years Prague, 14 May. The Governing Council of the Ministry of Education and Folk Culture and Central Inspector of Elementary Schools in the Czechoslovak Republic Vojta Bene\u0161, a brother of the President of the Republic, will finish his 60th birthday on 17 May. Born in Ko\u017elany, he took over in 1897 the position of a substitute teacher in Cakovice near Prague, passed in 1905 the specialized examinations for teaching at public schools and was appointed in 1909 as a citizen school director in Brandýs on the Elbe. Three years before the outbreak of the World War, he traveled to the United States of North America for the first time to raise the standard of American compatriots at the invitation of American Czechoslovaks. He became head of the Czech School in New York, where he worked until 1913. Returning to Europe in 1914, he was drafted into the military service of the Austro-Hungarian army, but was back in America a year later, following the Czechoslovak Revolutionary Movement in the Inten tions and following the instructions TGM. saryks organized. From 1915-1918 he was secretary of the Czechoslovak National Council in America. For four and a half years, he traveled the United States to promote the Czechoslovak freedom movement. In the winter of 1916 he traveled from America to England to T. G. Masaryk in the function of a delegate of the American Czechoslovakians. After the end of World War Vojta Bene\u0161 returned to his homeland and was appointed in 1922 to the provincial school inspector. In 1928, he undertook his third trip to America to attend the ten years of Czechoslovakia. Since 1897 member of the Czechoslovak Social Democratic Labor Party, he was elected in 1925 on her list in the House of Representatives, of which he was a member for ten years. Member of the Senate since 1935, he resigned in 1936 for health reasons. His private archive contains numerous memorabilia of the Czechoslovak struggle for freedom, in particular the original of the Washington Declaration in English and the first maps of the Czechoslovak Republic drawn in 1915 by T. G. Masaryk in Switzerland. Numerous are his publications, especially from wartime. This subheading includes the writings "A Memorial to the International," Chicago, 1915; "T. G. Masaryk, Cleveland 1916; "It's the twelfth hour," Chicago 1917; "National Question and Socialism", Cleveland 1918; "Message from the American Compatriots to the Liberated Homeland", 1919; "School and Education in the Democratic State", 1921; "The Czechoslovak Revolutionary Movement in North America", 1923; "The Czech National Association", Chicago 1925; "Masaryk's Work in America", 1925; "The ideal basis of our freedom", 1929; "The Freedom Battle of Czechoslovak America", 1931; "Address to the Youth on the Origin and Mission of the Czechoslovak Army", 1934; "Masaryk, a leader of the spirit of our history", 1935; "What I want to say to the youth on March 7," 1935; "The most beautiful kind of fatherland love", 1937; "Masaryk during the Revolution", 1937. His wartime and post-war publications remain a historical testimony to his spiritual attachment to the personality and ideas of the President's liberator, TG Masaryk, in whose service Vojta Bene\u0161 stood and stands.
