The request there to draw up a monthly audit report on the operation being conducted in a proper manner and in accordance with commercial principles can, as Secretary of State Frank has occasionally already informed a recent discussion, not be complied with from purely technical reasons. The company is monitored and revised at certain intervals by the "Cura" Revisions- und Treuhand-G.m.b.H. Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft zu Berlin, which specialises in newspaper publishing and printing. When the "New Day" is founded, provision is made for the operation to be carried out according to commercial and the national socialist - especially party official - newspaper publishers under the service of Mr. Reichsleiter Amann. According to these principles, the heads of the publishing house have the duty to strive for the highest economic efficiency of the enterprise, as far as the fulfilment of the political politeness formulas are excluded in all party official letters
