33 Dr.von Burgsdorff Under-Secretary of State Prague, 8 Nov. 1940. Mr. Secretary of State 1M/d 04/0.40 I have just spoken to Ministerial Director Kramsch, representing the absent Secretary of the State of Neumann, Mr. Kramsh explained that in the meantime Roggen is rolling after the Protectorate, from which it would have to be taken at first, even without the permission of Mr. Reichsmarschall, which would have been granted afterwards. It is true that 8000 tonnes of roe have already arrived and 40000 tonnes have been rolled up. I once again led Mr Kramsch to our situation and told him to arrange another meeting in Berlin if difficulties arise because of our request. MiaNny St. S.m
