251 Volksdeutsche Zeitung Tagblatt der deutschen Volksgruppe in der Czecho-Slovakia Prag, 30 March 1939 Prague II, Jindřisská Brünn, Rašingasse 7 The main author SaS K.H. Frank, Prague. Dear Secretary of State. At the request of the Neue Wiener Tagblatt, please read the text of an article to be published in the Easter episode of the Neuer Wiener Tagblätter and at the same time in the Volks- deutsche Zeitung. Perhaps you have the kindness to choose a topic that travels around the assignments of your new office in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia and takes a position on the issues that have become topical due to the reorganization of relations in the Bohemian-Moravian area, taking into account the questions of future coexistence between Deutsche and Czechs. If, Mr Secretary of State, instead of writing this paper, you wish to have the form of an interview, I would ask you to let me know at the same time when and where I could call on you on this matter. hr808 By hoping that you, very venerable Mr. Staatsekretär, will acknowledge the grant of the above-mentioned request, I draw with great devotion Hitler!
