Telephone call: 347.96 379.84 THE DIRECTOR To the curator of the German scientific universities, P r a g I., Mozartplatz 2. Dear Curator : Today, may I draw your particular attention to the question of how to raise funds for the members of the faculty. From several colleagues who are in a similar position to me, I heard that they too feel that living in a hotel room in the long term is extremely burdensome and inhibiting for the carrying out of the scientific and organizational work that we have to carry out. We have the urgent desire to be taken into account when providing apartments. It is obvious that success, in terms of both success and failure, will also have to have an impact on future appeal procedures. As far as I am concerned personally, I was bitterly disappointed when an apartment offered by the NSDAP Commissioner for Wohlungswesen was taken away by the Wehrmacht at the moment when my wife wanted to finish the negotiations. I have often, even more recently, received offers from the pharmaceutical-chemical large-scale industry, with the special reference to the provision of a pleasant place to live. I wish to remain faithful to my teaching and research activities at the university, but I would ask you to take account of the need for appropriate accommodation. In my presentations to the curator from April 13, 1942, I founded the necessity of a modern 5 to 6 room apartment. Heil Hitler! defiend E Hamann. 1000. XIL. 41. J. W.
