5 stellv. Reichsprotektor in Bohemia undllähren. z.Zt. Berlin, 29.3.43, 17 59 29 MRZ 1943 (u 2 6769 Z 1Y3 sifl We l.) Fernschreiben an: Dugcd -Sturmbannführer Dr. B r a n d t , über. Berlin SW.ll. Prinz Albrechtstrasse 8. Lieber Dr . Brandt ! The Reichsführer has just given me the order to instruct you, on two questions of the Protectorate, with Stutterheim at Minister$Lammers, to obtain a/nchidnng on these two questions. voiw The first question is the decision of Lammers by the Führer whether vir from the district heads in the Protector Council can give the still war-useable. In the request it is justified that with the 67 district head MMM men then only l5 fugitive remains. This would be impossible for the German leadership in the Frotekttorat. We cannot see a substitute for this, because the district headmen all work since the beginning of the Protectorate and only they know the conditions in the protectorate. The second question is the proposal to issue a stamp for the death day of Obergruppenführer Heydrich, i.e. a postage stamp. The draft is already presented by Minister Lammers. The Reichsführers welcomed him very much. I also consider this mark necessary for political reasons for the protectorate. As we have to put the larke under pressure soon, I am waiting for the decision of Minister Lammers, but he did not want to take it without the permission of the leader.
