Uolksdeutsche Zeitung 254 Tagblatt der deutschen Volksgruppe in der Czecho-Slovakei Prag II., Jindřiská 2 Prag, 3o March 1939 Brno, Rašingasse 7 The main author Mr. State Secretary K.H. Fr a n k , Prague. At the request of the Neue Wiener Tagblatt, I would like to ask you to write a contribution, which will be published in the Easter episode of the Neuer Wiener Tagblat and at the same time in the Volksdeutsche Zeitung. Perhaps you have the kindness to choose a topic that covers the tasks of your new office in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia and takes a position on the issues that have become topical as a result of the reorganization of relations in the Bohemian-Moravian area, taking into account the questions of future coexistence between Germans and Czechs. If, Mr State Secretary, instead of writing this paper, you would like the form of an interview to be more desirable, I would ask you to let me know and at the same time tell me when and where I could call you on this matter. By hoping that you, very venerable Mr Staatsekre- tär, will grant the above-mentioned request, I draw with great devotion with Heil Hitler! i.a. Prno Pical. Bruno Riedl, editor of the Volksdeutsche Zeitung
