At E.ng 29.DEC 1942 Mr sinryn K.H.Frank See in P_r_a_g_i- Werter Comrad ! Subject : Exemption of my seller Jan Šiml. Please excuse me for addressing you with the following matter, because I found no understanding with all the competent authorities. I am a World Credible Corrupted, SudetenGerman, al- tes member of the DNSAP since 19l9, then a member of SdP and since 1938 the NSDAP. Also here I am Block Leader and Blockobmann of the DAF. In l940 I became a trustee for the Fa. Mare cus Popper in Kralowitz, later also for the company Josef Deiml in Plass and was at the same time appointed as a grain commissary of both companies. On October 5th, I bought the company Marcus Popper at Kraloitz, which became more convenient to me on the 22nd of October by the state president, Reichsauftragsverwaltung. In this business there are 3 salesmen, 1 cashier and 2 law firms, and I also have 3 apprentices to whom I cannot give any relevant work. From these employees I gave up an employee for the purpose of a better contract, according to the order of the Führer, the local employment office in June and August. I am the only German company within a radius of 30 km, which is why I am constantly being placed in the way of difficulties from the Czech side and I am deprived of my labour force, while the Hospodarske Drus- tvo was left with all employees. Lo days ago, a third of my employees had to be trained and was taken to Nuremberg. My buyer Jan Šiml was released by the retail industry group, but was nevertheless called for air protection testing, where he was found to be possible. On the 2l. d.M. came the march order, after which he has to find himself on 4 January at the air protection department in Prague for further use. Since I have iron, textile, colonial and coal trade in my business, as well as the purchase of grain, St. SG-31/42
