Dr. Give s, Reich 0ro Prag. in a 22.MAI1943 At the l5.d.M. a transport of bomb-damaged families from Essen should arrive early at 5.24 h. In the evening it was called that the transport did not come, as the women refuse to go to the protectorate. The leader of the group decided in a meeting on the 1 5th of March that the previous regulation should be amended and that the party alone in its sector must assume responsibility, with the exception of the provision of housing. He ordered that the present decree on the care of the bomb victims should be modified accordingly. Only for bomb victims, who are reported by the police and the Wehrmacht for accommodation in the Protectorate, should my previous jurisdiction remain. The Oberst group leader assumes that by this regulation on the last mentioned sector, for example, the party must be shown that the accommodation of the bomb victims can be carried out without complaint. In the annex, I submit the draft decree for this new regulation before I transfer it to the party liaison office for co-signation and to the Oberst- Gruppenführer for submission. I can ask for your opinion as soon as possible, as the colonel group leader is pressing for the decree to be issued. 4-Obersturmbannführer.
