16 October 1942. The Secretary of State. St.S.418/42. 1942 16. X. 1.) To Mr. Gauleiter and Reichsstatthalter Eigruber, L i n z (Danube), Landhaus. G/K regarding leave of absence of the agricultural council@ Molfram from Tabor I reply that I have commissioned the Inspector General of the Administration, H-Brigadeführer Generalmajor of the Reinefarth Police Department, who is working with the S Reichsprotektor. I will inform you about the result. As to the question of the leave of absence of Wolfram, District Chief of Government Rotberg personally visited the 3l.8.d.Js. Kreis-leiter Gasthuber and informed him that a registration of tungsten was required. Gasthuber had then informed that, if the Reichsprotektor had pronounced the leave of absence, Wolfram would also be on leave by the party in his capacity as local leader. I do not want to lift the ban on Wolfram Tabor's not being allowed to leave, as there is an urgent suspicion that he has committed crimes against war-related regulations.
