Dear Frank Karl! Cing.: 13. SEP.1941 Thi. No.: Last Saturday I drove through Prague on my way to the "German People's Day" in Pilsen and on this occasion I made the first little promising attempt to reach you in your office. Actually, I just wanted to greet you once again and wish you 41 of the birth of your daughter very much luck, which I am here after nole.I was very happy about this event! My visit to Pilsen was not limited to the participation in this new, gloriously run "Day of the Egerland" of a pronunciation with various comrades, in particular circle leader Wollner, who wants to include me in some of the important activities in the borderland of Pilsner.You know that such a work lures me powerfully and that I would like to give up my present position, which, although materially certain, would no longer fully satisfy me in their job possibilities. Wollner has all kinds of very tempting and me whether the plan honoring me in the law, an installation at the Skoda works, or, which would perhaps be the most beautiful, the place of the government commissioner of the city of Pilsen.He wants to talk to you about this plan. Of course, I am also concerned about this matter and I would especially like to say at least a few words about it with you.If I hope to be able to speak to you on Monday,dáeni: I5.d.M. or if you even think that a pronunciation is desirable, I would take my way back to the east via Prague again and visit you at an hour determined by you.I will allow myself to call your office on Saturday between I0 and II o'clock and get your decision.(I will try to reach Mr. Dr.Giess or his office.) / In the meantime I greet you very warmly. Heil Hitler! i dl Mr. SS-Obergruppenführer $9-53/41 Staatssekr.Karl Hermann F R A N K ,
