The file contains mostly press cuttings and some handwritten notes of Paul Anderson, based on collected informations regarding home and foreign affairs of several European countries. Anderson was a German journalist, who, after the National Socialists came to power, moved to the United Kingdom via Stockholm. Since 1940, Anderson has been a political commentator in the German service of the BBC, working on the radio station of the European Revolution and under the pseudonym Peter Petersen. The press cuttings are collected from different newspapers like 'Gardista', 'Grenzbote', 'Neuer Wiener Tagblatt', 'Ostdeutscher Beobachter', 'Donauzeitung', 'Frankfurter Zeitung' and others. The 'Guardista' was a political weekly newspaper, later on a daily basis except Mondays and was based in Bratislava and Žilina. The first paper was issued on January 18, 1939, the last one after more than five years on April 5, 1945. The 'Grenzbote' was a newspaper of German language, which was also based in Slovakia till 1945. After the establishment of the Czechoslovak Republic, the 'Grenzbote' was a social and economic journal (Unabhängiges Wirtschaftspolitisches Organ für die Interessen der Slovakei). It was the official body of the Nazis and German organizations in Slovakia. 'The Neue Wiener Tagblatt' was from 1867 to 1945 in Vienna published daily newspaper. It was one of the highest-circulation newspapers in Austria before 1938. After the annexation of Austria to National Socialist Germany in March 1938, the newspaper was immediately made serviceable to the Nazi propaganda apparatus. The last issue of the newspaper appeared on April 7, 1945, when the Battle of Vienna began, with which the Red Army liberated the city from the Nazi regime.
