Prae, doe orar 195 General abstract I 3 21. FEB. 1945 I 3 - 3830 ER 91/2 SOFORT. To the Minister of State of the Minister's Office 45 d.d. of the Head of Department 212. Subject: Absence of the Director of the German Health Chamber The Head of the Deutsche Gesundheitskammer, as I hear now, is again absent from Prague for 14 days. I have already pointed out to him that the duties of the head of the German Health Chamber are so great in the event of an emergency that he must be available at any time in Prague. Dr. Wächter, however, refers to an allegedly present decision of the Minister of State himself, that Dr. Zächter should be working as a model physician for the supplementary body of the Waffen-SS. I do not think it justifiable for Dr. Wächter to continue to be absent from Prague for weeks at a time when he is in a difficult position, only to carry out patternings. Such patterning can be carried out by any other doctor, including young and war-stricken doctors. In addition to civilian activities, the university professors are particularly specialised in the field of medical advice from the Wehrmacht. Melp m.A. I would like to ask you to decide that Dr. Guards for the duration of the tense situation, which, because of the general health care, the use of doctors etc., promotes its permanent mis prng beginning accessibility in Prague, not TOO Wat, however, should Dr. Wächter's deployment at the Waffen-SS be absolutely necessary, his Uk position will be cancelled for the purposes of the German Health Chamber and the authority of the head of the Deutsche Gesundheitskammer must be transferred to Dr. Pieper or me, simruvl where 1v-31/45
