State Secretary Frank File number: IVb 236/40 PragIV Wg/It. Czerninpalais Dear Secretary of State ! From the negotiations on the claims of the Duchess of Schleswig-Holstein I am known to you. Today, s/19, I would like to present the following case to you: The old party comrade Leopold K a u f m a n n has submitted an application to Mr Reichsprotektor for the takeover of the company Ing.Robert Müller, production of air and heating systems, Prague-Dewitz. Meanwhile, with your te jnd dn as. Mr. Oberregierungsrat Hoffmann various negotiations took place. randebrrice The applicant Kaufmann is an old c drige tis party co-operative (No. about ll6 000), who has been active in the 5 movement since 1923 and leads a standard 26 1/48 of the SA in the Oberdonau region. Kaufman is a professional and also meets the financial requirements. He is married and father of several children and has been a soldier at the front since the beginning of the war. At the same company the company "Ostrak" Hei- nungsanlagen- und Apparate-Bau A.G., Prague, is still interested. The Eskomte-Bank as representative of the firm "Ostrak" approached Pg. Kaufmann with the proposal to withdraw his application. He would receive a package of shares from the company "Ostrak". Mr. Regierungsrat Stier was informed by Pg.Kaufmann that he could not respond to this offer, because he did not seek shares but wanted to establish an existence. Mr. Government Councillor Stier asked Mr. Kaufmann to speak again with the lords of the Eskomte bank and the firm "Ostrak". 2 A 80592 MM √1 C -86 0
