63 Copy of the copy of the National Socialist German Workers' Party Party-Kanzlei Der Leiter der Partei-Kenzlei München 33, den 27.5.1941 Führerbau III D/15 - E1/Es. 3215/0/70 An den Herrn Reichsminister für Wissenschaft, Erziehung und Volksbildung, Berlin W. 8 Unter den Linden 69 Subject: School conditions in the Protectorate. C It seems unacceptable to me that the German schools in the Protectorate are still under the authority of the Protectorates Government, which cannot be expected to promote the German school system. In the years before the creation of the protectorate, the Czech school system has been greatly expanded at the expense of the German one. I therefore consider it necessary to transfer the German schools in the Protectorate as soon as possible to the administration of the Reich. Mr Reichsminister der Finanzen is ready, once the transfer of the school administration to the Reich has been completed, the personal and actual financial requirements of about 15 million RM. In the course of the financial compensation, the Reich will have the possibility to demand compensation from the Protectorate Government for the taking over of the entire school burden. Teachers and officials working in the administration of the schools would have to be transferred immediately to the Reich official relationship. About the above mentioned 15 million RM.
