22 A b s c h r i f t H/W 16.December 194o To the Reichsführer SS Heinrich H i m l e r B e r l i n SW ll, Prinz Albrechtstrasse 8 Reichs führer ! Name of the foundation People and Reich I would like to express my sincere thanks for having decided to take over the presidium of the Stiftung Volk und Reich. In doing so, you have created a decisive precondition for the implementation of the great objective plans put to work by the people and the kingdom. I will do everything I can as the head of the work to justify the trust you have placed in the matter. I immediately informed the members' idea of the leadership of the nation and the empire of your decision. In Prague, I made the decision of Karl Hermann Frank of Iher to lead the group, and I spoke to him about the assignments I had received from you - to create preparatory work for Bucharest and Budapest in detail. I can inform you of the possibilities that will arise for the implementation of these plans in the shortest possible time. The book series you have requested, Reichsführer, about the resettlement from the Eastern European regions is under attack and I hope to be able to present the first volume to you in January l94l. To the upcoming Julfest and to the new year I may convey to you the most sincere wishes. Heil Hitler !
