6619 St.M. IV D - 49 n/43. Prague, 3 December 1943. 205 54 FS: Urgent! Present immediately! To Mr. Reichsminister und Chef der Reichskanzlei Dr.Lammers, Berlin W8, Voßstraße 6. Very venerable Mr. Imperial Minister! I refer to my letter of 27.10.d. - Zeichen St. M. 117/78/43, to which I have not yet answered. Since my first meeting with you and Mr Reichsleiter Bormann has now passed four months, I am unfortunately unable to wait any longer in the matter. The factual necessity to carry out the improvement of the autonomous pay relations does not allow a day to be postponed. Any further delay would lead to a serious political burden, which was not related to any technical concerns of the Reich's departments. I am not able to accept this responsibility. I have therefore decided to publish the improvement of the autonomous working conditions in the form I have planned and to have them carried out before Christmas. I hope that you will have an understanding of my difficult situation and of my desire not to give propaganda material to the other side. In case of emergency, I will represent my actions before the leader. With binding greetings and salvation Hi t le r ! Her very devoted instigated Tir. gez.F ran k. an Ulre u0 Klu nieinMutl Dt.Stont
