Telex of 14.l0.d.Js. - No. 00283-00330l. 1.) There are no war camps in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. As a result, there is nothing to be said of me in the sense of the 4th letter of the cited telex. 2.) The Reichsgau Sudetenland contains only detached labor commandos of prisoner-of-war camps, whose commanders are under the responsibility of the higher 4ý and police leaders in Breslau, Dresden or Nuremberg, depending on the Wehrkreis. I assume that the competence of the above-mentioned high 4 and police commanders extends to these labour commandos. I would be grateful if my opinion were confirmed as accurate and if a corresponding communication were given to the higher and police leaders. Here it should be suggested that I am in my capacity as higher 4 and police leader in the Reichsgau Sudetenland
