57 Prague, 9 January 194o. l.) V e r m e r k. Pg. v. Gregory stated that the Reichsrundfunk-gesellschaft, apart from the head of the Brno station, could not have taken over further personnel. The employment relationship of the personnel had been dissolved as of 31 December 1939. About this reigns both with the affected personnel and with the party great bitterness. In the opinion of Pg. v. Gregory, the timing was unfavorably chosen, but it was difficult to change the decision of the broadcasting company. The society had to fulfil very important war tasks in relation to the enemy powers, which imposed its greatest austerity. 2.) With this note and 4 annexes, the Secretary of State submitted his request for information.
