28 Envoy Z.D.Dr.Jur.Kurt Ziemke Agram, 30 June 1941. Representative of Bohemian-Mahrian industries, Agram. Currently Hotel Esplanade. Mr. Chief Governing Councillor G i e s, Czernin Palais, PRAG. Protectorate. Dear Mr. G ie s ! First of all I thank you warmly for the reservation of the compartment, which made my wife's trip to Vienna extremely easier. I had sent a car to my wife in Graz and she arrived on time and very happy. We like Zagreb very much and I have already rented apartment and office in the same house. For the time being we live here in the hotel until our furniture arrives. I give the orders to the freight forwarders in Berlin and Prague with regular mail. For the sake of simplicity, I am adding a copy of a copy to Dr. ADOLF, who goes by the same mail. In the hotel we do not notice any restrictions, but bread, oil, fats, textiles and leather goods are rationed. The mood here is good/apart from certain communist movements of the last days/, and the Italian economic policy desire is quite opposed. The Croats do not believe in the existence of today's solution; since the Duke of Spoleto allegedly postponed his arrival to the next year, he will probably not come at all, although I have no information ./.
