An ASNAC olma State Secretary at the Reichsprotektor 29.7P2.1942. in Bohemia and Moravia -ObersturmbannführER Dr. G i e s Prague E 4 Czernin Palace 4 EOTGUE Dear comrade Giess! O4 -Obergruppenführer P o h l has sent me a newspaper section of the following content: "In the city Roth-Kosteletz_(protectorate) there is a structural curiosity. A house, which was built 192s/1930, consists, with the exception of the beam scaffold, entirely of cork plugs. For the walls of the 3-room house, more than one million corks* were needed." Obergruppenführer Pohl asks to determine whether the information in this article is correct. If so, he may want to encourage the cork plugs of the war economy to be used in any form. I would be extremely grateful if you could give me your opinion here too soon. With the best greetings and w Heil Hitler 1 Your 2 S A w W 4 8 2 22 aW -Oberführer 1 X b.w. ©L©Zb-37/42 2B 42. 12000 2. 42.
