52 circle leader hans Westen Budwris, on 25 October 1938. M.D. D. W./N. 5350. 216f To Mr. SS-Brigadeführer Karl Hermann Fr a n k borgwy. State Secretary op in P r__a__g___i Aijyfis Czerninpalais. Dear comrade Fr al k ! According to the previous surveys, the retired district judge K u h n is a full Jew, so long as it cannot be proved in any way clearly that he originates from an external connection between his Jewish mother and a former Austrian officer. An old aunt Kuhns is supposed to be able to obtain this knowledge in Vienna. Apart from that, Kuhn is one of the first former Czech-Slovak court officials to know about the SdP. As much as I remember, the spouses have belonged to the SDP since l936. At that time, his Jewish origin was unknown to us at all. The son of Kuhn also worked in the gymnast youth. The woman was a really operational employee in the women's community and is also now decisive for the attitude and establishment of the German community in Frauenberg. In the critical autumn days of l938, she offered her distant apartment fleeting comrades as asylum and also accommodated the district womanhood leader of the district of Budweis in her home. The woman and her family are therefore worthy of support, and I would ask you to help the people on your part, where it only concerns them, that official intervention is only possible when the question is clarified whether Kuhn is a full Jew or a hybrid.
