S c h le m p p PEaRI On your letter of 23.8.44 and my letter of 5.9.44 vb 6020-0/0 Liaison engineer to the OT mission group VTI in Prague I am not in a position to take care of the building premises of the department IX of the German Minister of State for Bohemia and Moravia, because the protectorate post is an independent administration. This also eliminates the perception of the business of a liaison engineer for the protectorate post by one of my beants. Furthermore, I maintain the naming of the Oberpostbaurat Neumann according to my letter of 5.9.44 Vb 6020-0/0. The German Minister of State for Bohemia and Moravia, Abbot IX,the Minister of Armament and War Production, Office Bau-OT and Mr Oberpostbaurat Neumann (Reichspost-direktion Wroclaw) will receive a copy of this letter. To your letter of 16.9.44 IX/3-D 1360-20 Prot. Copy with the request for information. I should like to point out that, although there have been repeated negotiations with the Reichsprotektor for the German Reichapost's takeover of the Protectorate's post, the Reich's Protector has always been opposed to this. I therefore do not see any reason to take on any task for the Protectorate Post which is not justified by law,even if you write to me in your above mentioned letter a limited influence on your construction intentions ton moa To the Mr. Deutsche Staatsminister für Böhmen u.Mähren - Division IX - A d
