44 SS-Obersturmführer Jochen TosTMANN, P r a g VII., U Snaltovny l2l8. To the Herr Reichsprotektor in Bohemia and Moravia, Group Commercial Economy, e.g. Mr. Dr. B a y e r, Prague. I./Ku. Prague, 21.XII.1939 Dear Dr. Bayer! In order to justify any accusations against me by Mr. Alten-Bockum and Mr. Jahs-berg, I would be extremely grateful if the reports sent to you by both gentlemen could be sent to me as a friend. In order not to bother you on this matter, I had spoken to Mr Lahsberg and asked him to give me a copy of his report. Mr LaHsberg explained that he had been prompted to do so by you and that you had obliged him not to inform me about this report. For this reason, he could not pass on the report to me. However, Lahsberg agreed to ask him about this and to allow you to pass on to me the copy of this report. However, since I no longer have any connections with Dr. V. Alten, I kindly ask you to have his report presented to me for inspection. Heil Hitler! SS-Obersturmführer SOOSS 256
