4382 4 St.M. XII J - 53 b/44g. 11/448 Prague, August 30, 1944. 2050 Beheim FS: An 4-Sturmbannführer Backhaus, Berlin, Reichsnährungsministeriun. Dear comrade Backhaus ! In terms of publishing manager Rudolf Damm I reply to your telex from the 9.8.d.Js. - No. ll87 that I can do little in the business. The secret state police, the state police headquarters in Prague, have requested the expulsion of Damm from the Protectorate and the imposition of the entry ban against him. The request is based on material that significantly burdenes the character and attitude of Dam, and you will understand that under these circumstances I would like to refrain from the debate that you have suggested. Furthermore, I have been assured that the cultural policy of the German State Ministry for Bohemia and Moravia and Director General Rudl have done everything possible to support the agricultural publishing company in the most generous way. Heil Hitler ! gez. G i e s, Aie vetni 4382 -Standartenführer. before Mir Pt. Stootsmin..
