Memorials of Catholic priest: November 29, 1944, Albania's Black Friday

Today when Albanians celebrate November 29th, the country's Day of Liberation, the Francescan Library has published the quotes of Catholic priest Father Konrad Gjlaj for November 29th, 1944. His story is different from the history books we've read so far about partisans and LANCH. “The Black Friday Eagle, [...]
The Black Friday Eagle, which began with 29 Nador 1944, and not 28 Nandor, which will continue as long as Communists rule here, also came to Shkodra. Our flag was violated by a red star, along with the flag of Druze Tito's Yugoslavia, all after 31 years of 1913, was flown into that computer of our church, forcibly put by the Albanian communists, “Liberation Partisans”, violators of our nation's Religion and Honor”.
“The dinner parties gathered with feast victory at the Italian consulate building (later the house of culture). Around midnight, 3 Germans at the armada came back with a tricycle, knocked on the door, and entered the 300 partisans' environments, got up the nalt, and got in a safe, a document went to his work.
What about the brave partisans? They keep on eating and drinking among the decks of the many Shkodra merchants, who thought that “these” the Partisans will continue with their own protruding shegers. They started spreading through the House of Shkodra, so the city was covered with lice. On the cold nights, he knew about the vote among the partisans' sad eyes, he was seen as a tin boss. So she stepped on us with her trick “liria”.
When the state falls into the duerties, it's well known. Everywhere under the pretext of precision, theft and robbery. People with the perspiration of their faces arranged to some extent for the economy were forced to where their hands were, just how to obtain the bread, and how to make sure of it, the Napoleons of gold were left in women's desks, and the situation went so far, as to a loaf, with hours to sit among the rare. Cars among the tradesmen loaded the merchandise and sent it to “to the aid of the Yugoslav Brotherhood”.
It all started to die. Prisons were now filled with businessmen who did not pay their taxes, and they were filled with gold and ornaments. In the old market every day, a dozen was closed, because it wasn't paying taxes, or worse, solican was stuck in the hole because he didn't obtain capital”.
