English Translation

Gauleiter Dr.Jury was then subject to the reorganization of the armaments organization in Bohemia and Moravia. He warmly welcomed the simplification he had entered, which, in his view, would also be very desirable in the rest of the Reich. Furthermore, the establishment of the popular storm in Protectorate was briefly discussed. In doing so, I pointed out that the German men in Bohemia and Moravia were in any case particularly heavily stressed and that with care must be taken when drawing to the people's storm. In the other case, it is to be expected that particularly heavily claimed men would no longer fully fulfil their professional duties. This would be in the Protectorate, where today a large part of the military personnel are, especially as a result of the dissolution of the armed forces, extremely tense and partly very unstable. For example, health has recently been so affected that I have been thinking since 1 December of the year. Gauleiter Dr.Jury noted that these questions were to be discussed in the so-called Kreiskom mission, to which I am to belong. Finally, I came to speak on the attacks that were directed by DAF in Niederdonau against the Bata A.G. Gauleiter Dr.Jury strongly condemned this and said that he would make sure that something like this did not happen again.
