English Translation

The Führer has complied with my proposal and has expressly stated that Mr von Burgsdorff is also treated as ministerial directors with regard to his service income, who are heads of departments of the Reich's ministries with the title of "Under-Secretary of State". As a result, Mr. von Burgsdorff is allowed to continue the official title "Under-Secretary of State" even after leaving his current office, after his retirement, from whatever position it may take, with the addition "a.D." . In addition, he receives the pensionable salary supplement like all other under-Se Secretaries. I ask Mr von Burgsdorff to hand over the attached award certificate completed by the Führer and to give him the necessary openings in the spirit of the above statements.
