He referred to the fact that, for example, a corresponding provision had already been made in the district of Niederdonau (Appendix 2). The Order Office of Bohemia and Moravia of the Reichsjugendführung (Reichsjugendführungen) issued a statement on the application with Diehleiben dated 28.ll.l944 (Annex 3). In a further letter of 28.l.l 944 (Appended 4), Schult named some pastors for the teaching. The question of religious care within the framework of the KLV at all is positively settled during the decree of the Reich's Minister of Education of 25 August l943, which emanates from your Circular No.ll8/43 of the same date. In Bohemia and Moravia, the grant of confessional teaching encounters personal difficulties, while the question of space is usually solvable. Official teachers are rarely available for the grant of religious instruction. Of course, the Czech local spirits cannot be used. For this reason, the Evangelical Council of the Upper Churches would like to ask the question of evangelical religious instruction by wandering religious teachers 117
