t SA-Oberführer 27. May 1943 DIPL. ING. WOLFGANG LECHTER AusSIG, Gouwirtschaftsberater Fernruf 3811 -yf Mr. Secretary of State K. H. Fr a n k SS-GroupführER Prag York-Strasse ll - Dear comrade Frank! On the way home from Prague I had the bad luck to stay on the open road because of engine damage the day before yesterday. After 1 1/2 hours had been tried in vain to make the engine run again, I had no choice but to call on your help, which you kindly gave me. As I knew that you had guests, I would have liked to spare you, but there was no other way left for me, since Dr. Bertsch as well as Dr. Adolf, who I would otherwise have called, were among your guests. I thank you very much for your help, which was all the more valuable for me, when I came to the end of the meeting later in the night, which I had called with shipping interests from Hamburg and Magdeburg for the evening to Aussig. I draw with warm greetings and with Heil Hitler! Cg A 295.43
