English Translation

78a The following is specifically to be decided : 1) Sunday, 31 May Concert of the Wehrmacht in the Keisergarten. This requires permission to use the Kaiser Garden and further consideration as to whether such a concert will be possible at the end of May at all. The concerts in the Spanish Hall. The HJ has asked that the concert on 22 May not be held. I am standing on the stand=point that only concerts of the Reich = protector may be held in the Spanish Hall, so that a concert in this hall always appears something very special. I object to making any organizations available to the Spanish Hall, since sbnst kei= ne Grenze can be found. So it is questionable whether you, Obergruppenführer, would like to give a concert for the HJ. in the Spanish Room. I am convinced 2 that HJ will contact you immediately again. UEU Gichermasse, the cultural representative of the NSDaP., who is also head of the "force through joy" events at the DAF., asks you to present the concert on 12 June for members of the Daf. selected by the party. OE N aTom I would like to support this request, as I think it would be nice if you would take part in a szey concert in the midst of elected representatives of the workers of the Protectorate. oTs The meetings with the orchestra, the choirs, the HJ., the Wehrmacht have already - without obligation - progressed to the extent that the success of the weeks is hardly possible anymore and the final agreements can be made no20w, if you have given your basic approval B and on the individual points in question = 203, according to Dr. by Burgsdorff 37457 Copy by Mr. Secretary of State with the request for information= took note.
