-2- 95 in Brno /Bund Deutscher Osten und Bodenamt/, that there is no objection to the acquisition by Dr.Weithofer. Until then, the Jewish owner was not negotiated, but with the trustee, and he made an offer of cca K 7oo.ooo.- for the loha large property. The negotiation led a Brno lawyer. In this state of negotiation, plötzlioh Dr. Weithofer died; this was on April 29th, i.e., the negotiations have been under way since that time, as Dr. Weithofer and her children gradually had to live into the new situation. The negotiations on the acquisition of the Jewish property of Dr. Weithofer and the children were recently reopened, all the more so since they were assured by authoritative authorities that the realization of the property destroyed by the highway could be accelerated. The promise that the acquisition of Dr. Weithofer and her children would not be objectionable was also repeated by the departments which have so far been taken into consideration. Dr. Weithofer and their children tried, on the basis of these provisions, to lay the foundations for the purchase of Jewish property. A few days ago, both Dr. Weithofer and his children had to make the sad statement that the property was forgiven without taking into account the prerogatives of the Weithofer family. On the other hand, the family learned that the woman's employment service intended to lease the property and part of the Lamd property and that the rest of the land was to be leased to local farmers in Schöllschitz. In this respect, Dr. Weithofer's inquiries at the Reihsarbeitsdienst's department were rejected very harshly and with due regard to the situation of Dr.Weithofe. Only the son Wolfgang Weithofer, who is the manager of the Reichsjugendfi Prague office, succeeded in obtaining a more detailed explanation about the Reich's employment service at the temporary employment office in Prague, which confirms the building and a part of it.
