Ernst Frank,Karlsbad=Drahowig 273 27.12.1941. Dear Karl ! The visit of Pg.Langhan and the visit of Dr.Heidl and Dr.Fritsch cause me to tell you the following: Langhans asks you to take note that the publications about his vocation to Prague did not come from him. He was completely far away from the newspaper publications. Me e.g. After the publication of the memo in the "Time", he asked to distance himself from a takeover of the message in my newspaper. Dr. Heidl (who is remembered by you from his activity in the SdP management, Hybernergasse 4)° visited me with Fritsch Erwin in his arduous affinity for the condemnation. Fritsch Erwin became ill during his term of imprisonment, and is in treatment with Dr. Altmann because of his lung disease.He feels unfairly judged, so he submitted a Ganden request to the Führer, which was assessed favourably by all party offices and therefore also has a chance of a successful completion. Unfortunately, however, the conviction of Fritsch Erwin also results in the withdrawal of his medical activity, so that he stands before nothing as a result of his conviction after the detention. Now that his friend Dr. Heidl also has the firm conviction that Fritsch has been unjustly condemned - he has come to this opinion as a lawyer - then both address to you the request about me, whether it may be allowed by Dr.Heidl or Dr. Fritsch to speak to you briefly, about being able to make a request, or - if Bies should not be possible, what I probably pointed out, because I said both that you had enough to do with their things-- whether you have a connection to Dr. Conti , the Reichsärzteführer , to which the possibility of a re-registration of Fritsch depends (which you could influence in the favorable sense). For Fritsch Erwin speaks that he is a popular and above all a really skilled doctor. In today's lack of doctors it would be to consider whether it is not better if Fritsch could be preserved the profession. As a matter of fact, the verdict against Dr. Fritsch seems to be very clear, considering that he has to have busts, while other Karlovy Vary doctors, who have undoubtedly missed no less than Fritsch, would walk around freely. Thus, you might consider whether it should not be possible for you to at least catch Dr. Heidl in order to have you cured briefly and thoroughly. The rescue of the skillful hand of Fritsch Erwin for the call seems to me to be really offered in the interest of the community. Greetings to you and yours! Heil Hitler! Your fin Grifatfenig i
