Copy ! The Reichsminister und Chef Berlin W 8, 25 January 1943 of the Reichskanzlei Voßstraße 6 Rk. 872 D (z.Z. Peldquartier). * To the stellv. Reichsprotektor in Bohemia and Moravia, Herr 4-Oberst-Groupführer and General Oberst der Polizei D a l u e g e, Pr ag IV. Subject: Speeches on the 1st anniversary of the new protectorate government. To the letter of 20 January 1943. I read with interest the speeches given by you and Minister Dr. Krejei on the occasion of the first anniversary of the new Pro- tectorate Government. In the present war situation, I do not believe I can submit these speeches to the Führer in order not to increase his burden, which is already extremely strained, but I reserve the right to do so if a relaxation of the situation offers the opportunity to do this. Heil Hitler! Her very devoted, e.g. Dr. Lammers.
