SS-Obersturmbannführer Dr. Bartholomeyezik submits to me the written statement attached to the request for a return. As far as I have been informed, Obersturmbannführer Bartholomeyczik has already concluded the contract with the Deutsche Rechtsverlag GmbH. I cannot take a final position in material terms without knowing the content of the treat- ment. I have to reserve my position as long as I have the Abhandlarkrg Jesen. In formal terms, it would have been very important if Obersturmbannführer Bartholomeicnbg had asked me before concluding the contract whether it would be advisable to make the subject on which the treatise is based available to the public. I would be to you, St. S2 23
