33 - 2 - of the Reichsführer-4 of 17.6.1944 so far reported to the higher 4- and police leader, i-Obergruppenführers Schmauser, Wroclaw, in whose area the main camp is located. After a decision has now been made, the labour camps of the concentration camp Groß Rosen, which are now also to be reported to the higher and police leader responsible for the labour camp outside the command area of the higher #/i and police chief responsible for this. The concentration camp Groß Rosen reports the labour camps listed in the facility, which are under the concentration camp Gross Rosen and are in the area of command. Groß Rosen concentration camp will immediately report any changes that have occurred. According to the order of the Reichsführer, the higher W- and police leaders have to take the necessary measures for the safety of the labour and concentration camps in their area. In order to be able to carry out this order, it is essential that I be informed of the camps in my area, and that I should also be informed immediately of the re-establishment of a camp. Since I cannot determine with certainty whether there is another concentration camp in the Gau Sudetenland, I would be grateful if you would point out once again to the questionable camp commanders that all the labour camps in Bohemia - Moravia and the Gau Sude-tenland are to be mentioned to me. Heil Hitler! F r a n k , 4-upper group leader and General of the Waffen-i and the police.
