As the accompanying light pressure of a letter from Gauleitung Sudetenland to the Ministry of People's Enlightenment in Prague shows, some of the party circles outside Bohemia and Moravia still do not seem to have a clear idea of the position of the local area in the Reichsgewerke_ and thus DOy related to the traffic with autonomous services 75289 .W.d - 3 -
