JUE Betr.: Request from l8.8.l942 of Rudolf M a 1 i k , Moravian-Ostrava, Birkelstrasse 6, to Mr. Secretary of State Frank for the release of his savings account at the Silesian Escomptebank, branch Teschen, in the amount of Pol. Mk. 4,00,000,--. Reference: Request dated 2 November 1992 -- St.S. XI B - 22o/42 -- or my letter dated 26 November 1942 Tgb.No. V/4 - 4160. Following my letter of 26 March, I informed you that I had received the following information from the Deutsche Reichsbank: "According to information provided by the drafter of the Silesian Escompte bank, the director of the magistrate's office, here /d.i. Bielitz/, is the saving contribution of Rudolf M a- 1 i k , Moravian-Ostrava, from the year l922 at the branch Teschen in the amount of 4,ooo.ooo,-- poln. Mark at that time by the inflation become worthless and booked out. The conversion took place at the rate of 1,8oo.ooo,-poln. mark = 1 zloty. The bank, a German company, experienced difficulties in payment in 1993 and was wound up at the order of the Polish State. Up to now, 31% of the shares have been distributed to the German public and another 2 % are still to be expected." According to this information, a saving contribution is no longer available. If the latter value of the savings contribution, as mentioned above, were to be taken into account in the value ratio 1,8oo.oo,- poln. Mark = 1,- Zloty, recalculate, so an accounting value of 2,22 poln. Zloti - il,lo crowns would arise. Since the company has been liquidated, and only 33% should be paid out altogether, the saving deposit would have an accounting amount of K__3,67. At the moment the deposit had 3,7oo.ooo,-- plon. Mark at the price of the Czechoslovak crown of 98 Heller = loo poln. Mark converts an equivalent value of 36.26o,--chekhoslovakian crowns, and on 1 August 19922 3oo.ooo, -- pon. Mark at a price of 64 Hellern = loO poln, Mark an equivalent of 1920,- ..X1B=-22042
