Prague, July 21, 1942. 2 Personally! To 4-Standartenführer Böhme, Prague. As is well known to Jhnen, H-Oberst-Group Leader Daluege appointed General Reinefarth as General Inspector of the Administration for the Office of the Imperial Protector. According to the request of Colonel-Group leader Dalueg, the activity of General Reenefarth is to be established on the basis of the instructions of the General Inspectors General of the Order Police of 4.2.1937 (RMBliv. 1937 p.233). The relevant issue of the Ministerial Bulletin of the Reich and Prussian Ministry of the Jnn is connected with the request for return. The order of the General Inspectors of the Order Police is not appropriate to my discretion as a basis for the order of duty which General Reinefarth is to receive as a general inspector of the administration. General Reinefarth wants to get in touch with me because of the version of the instructions for his service. Jch therefore urges -Hauptsturmführer Reischauer to prepare the instructions and to present the draft y-group leader Prank. My discretion is to take the instructions in such a way that they do not enable the formation of a key position which hinders the functioning of the Secretary of State in the office of the Reich Protector under a successor of General Reinefarth. Heil Hitler! -Obersturmbannführer. 2) Wv. after departure from the signatory.
