Sa .tilrdoedA PODEEESSRS - 2 - Oner taM .of neb .gsig fesifogetied has not considered it in principle appropriate that -leaders act as protectorate officers. This should also correspond to the view of the Reichsführer-4 and chief of the German police. Although this principle has been broken by the appointment of Dr. S. Hwabe, H-Hauptsturmführer, as President of the State of Poland, it must be maintained that the establishment of d-leaders in the -üs Autonome Administration leads to a shift of responsibility between Czechs and Germans and is capable of immediately taking away the freedom of action of the 4 and Aetn German police, s or to impair those who require the 4 or German police in particular their mass to fight against anti-rich aspirations as well as for the fulfilment of their tasks in the Bohemian-Mauritian area in the popular struggle. nl SC -11I Of course, it is not overlooked that on the other hand, the interests of the German population could require the establishment of German brsd insignificant positions of the autonomous administration under circumstances. This problem would have to be examined from an appointed point of view. In any case, the setting up of Germans and thus their insinuation under the autonomous administration is always of concern, where it is perhaps not yet possible at the moment to describe exhaustively the relationship between the advantages and disadvantages of this regulation. ewoi otietogadoid b nböned adtnn nt The view that the head of the Moravian group leads the Reichsauf- TO TLPCBONGOLGSHSEEMETEOTT on the autonomous administration only to the extent that the competence of the Upper Land Councils itself is given to the Reich's supervision of the autonomous management, is only to be acceded to in the sense that the regional boundaries of the imperial supervision are meant herewith. Another question, however, is whether, as long as autonomy stands at 100, such an instruction to the "autonomous" president of the state is given at all a legal basis. M.E. does not exist such a legal base, since the cause of the empire is substantially affected, but not to the extent that the state vice-president is now subordinated to two authorities. The order could only be addressed to Dr. Schwabe personally, but not to the "President of the State". 960 - 3 -
