h St.M. XI A - 117 d/44. Prague, 16 August 1944. M 1.) FS: 16. VII. 1944 To Mr. President of the Government Dr. Laue, Salzburg, Reichsstatthalterei. Dear Mr Laue ! The handing over of mineurs for the Gauarbeitsamt Salzburg cannot be accomplished. The own need for such special workers rose so that forces from abroad must be used. I am sincerely sorry not to be able to help Yhnen in this case. Is it not possible to resort to the miners who were made available to the Reich Chancellery at that time? Against the claims of these forces, there were no considerations from here. I assume that the relevant measures are before completion and therefore at least a part of the workers could be dispensed with. With cordial greetings and salvation Hitler! Jr. Gies, Ministerial Council. 2.) Z.d.A.
