FONLET Jhe Zeihen: to Herrn Oberregierungsrat Dr. G i e s im Hau se Subject: Alois West, book on the Hultschinerändchen. A consultation with Pg. West showed that the preparatory work for the writing he planned on the battle period of the Hultschi ner Ländchen has not yet progressed so far that printing can be expected in a foreseeable time. So far, W. has apparently only collected material and tried to attract a suitable worker. During the war, however, he would hardly be able to advance the matter to such an extent that the plan gained some form. It was clear from the discussion that W. had misconceptions about the cost of pressure and about the publishing side of the matter. He believes that he can expect about 5o O00 customers, who are essentially recruiting from the Hultschinändchen. This is probably a misconception, since this number coincides approximately with the inhabitants of the Hultschinändschen. I therefore consider it premature to submit a contribution from the Secretary of State K. H. Frank to West's request. Since the Hultschiner is not part of the protectorate area, I advised West to turn directly! seette aeartet C/1495
