Introduction: There St.M.IV G - 39 c/43. Anl.: 1 Execution, 1 Map. Haupt has long proven himself as a KLv representative in southern Bohemia. He has unreservedly uncovered maladministration and practiced close cooperation with the most diverse German departments. Therefore he has long been trained by chief commander Kessler. Already in November l943 Haupt was to be eliminated by lifting his Uk. position, whereupon Oberlandrat Dr. Blaschek intervened at the Ministry of State. In recent months, particularly in the KLv camp Beching, severe maladministration, especially with regard to ideological care, has emerged. In May 1984, a fundamental debate was held with the government's beauftrates for the school system in the Rhineland, government director Jungblush from Koblenz, who dealt with the confessional problem and ultimately ran fruitless. (More detailed material is available from the SD section of the Prague section about the mis-demeanours uncovered by Haupt.) Again, Haupt attracted the displeasure of chief commander Kessler, which led again to the plan of lifting his Uk. position. The facts were therefore presented at the beginning of July 1944 to 4-upper group leader Frank, who decided to intervene with district leader Knoop, which was done on 17.7.1944 by letter from 44-star leader Dr. Gies "on behalf of the Minister of State". Knoop replied by letter of 20.7.19 44, by presenting Haupt as a war oppressor and presenting his confiscation as indispensable. St.M.√9-39 d/43g 141 8hh/srt
