English Translation

The Head of the Department of Telecommunications and Post Office Back to E.-2.NOV. 1943 M i n i s t e r a m t. Entering the Post Council ai N o w a k / Aussig. Fam According to the regulations now in force, Reichsberater will only be transferred to the autonomous authorities. However, in the case of a termination of the PR N o w a k the Reichspostminister would be responsible for the promotion to the Upper Post Council. However the RPM refuses the promotion of this man because of his complete incapacity. The Reichspostdirektion Aussig was constantly striving to admit to these incapacitated officials without any substitute. It came to me for this purpose the Chief Post Director Weførs and made the secondment of other provisional officials from the takeover of the completely useless N o w a k, as he expressed himself as "Dreitung", dependent. For reasons of justice, in order to get a picture of Nowak myself, I then personally ordered him to audition. Nowak is a harmless chatter, without special expertise, which would have been taken over by me only out of grace. As he himself states in his request, his corresponding sudetenGerman comrades have been promoted for the most part twice. This may also be a sign that he has always been regarded as the weakest and most incapable. Apart from the purely material impossibility of promoting Nowak's own perfection of power, I consider the use of such a weak man among Czechs, who partly surpass him far above him, to be undesirable. o a tuitlar 15862 22 NOV.1943 anientbeten: Ahtenjelmens . x1000l Mapping SLM 2h/8020-67
