Hofrichter could not be transferred the house in Kuttenberg with a corresponding, but very small economy, as it is needed as a residential building for the Napola. eCa Against the wish expressed by Colonel Hofrichter to acquire an agricultural property in the size of 8oo-lo0o morning (2oo-25o ha), I have to contend with the most serious concerns. If he was also the oldest officer of the Wehrmacht at the Pront, that in itself is no reason to claim such a large business. Despite fundamental concerns, I would at best suggest that he be given a property of the size up to a maximum of 5oo acres (125 ha). However, this would require the explicit order of the Obergruppenführer, since otherwise a pre- cedence fail will be created, which will undoubtedly not be without consequences, if the Obergroupführers decide in this sense, it would be necessary to draw the attention of Colonel Hofrichter to the fact that such a betriep cannot be made available today in 1-2 weeks, that this rather requires a plight of several months. In the meantime, the ground office has provided the Supreme Court judge in Prague with an apartment, which he will move into after May 5th and in which he can stay at will. i-Obersturmbannführer. 8-hNS
