Eing.: 29.FEB.1940 Tgb. nr.36 First written by Mr. State Secretary SS-Group Leader K.H. I have sent an extract from the report to the 3/3 Federal Foreign Office. Professor P l a c h y is one of the three Czech exchanges in Italy, which will be left there for the time being by the Federal Foreign Ministry. The Foreign Office has reserved for a final decision. The matter has, moreover, been dealt with less by the Italian Consulate General than directly between the Foreign Office and the Italian Embassy in Berlin. The question of Italian consular officials married to Czech women, including Matteucci, has occasionally been raised in Pfitzner's case. The Italian Government is aware of the fact that Matteucci has been appointed in this context. He left Prague in one month. Mattewitz is, by the way, involved in a matter concerning the postponement of Jewish assets, which is currently being dealt with by the Prague Foreign Exchange Committee. This is a criminal offence committed before the Court of Justice. M.J.
