English Translation
YS - 3 - to state that their investigations should be carried out on behalf of a German department; the officials would then have the certainty that their application would be met in any case. P r o c h á z k a therefore wishes to have assumed that the statement of the official that he would have to work for a German service was only a threat and had therefore been prompted to rebuke the official concerned in such a way. He had further believed that he had had the right to do so, because the price monitoring bodies are indeed protectorate authorities. On 26.9.4l he wanted for the same reason to have done the same aberration to the Budweiser officials. As an excuse for rejecting the mutual assistance to the budweiser officers, P r o c h á z - k a cited the following: 1.) The Budweiger officials had not expressed at all that they needed another official to carry out their investigations. 2.) On the morning of the 26.9.4l, no officials would have been present at the "H" abbey who could have been dismissed; the information must be labelled as incorrect and thus as a smooth lie on the basis of the findings of the investigation. It is clear from the statements made by the German inspector involved and a stenotyper who was present in the room, who was completely uninvolved, that the spokesman of the three officers asked for foreign help. P r o c h á z k a himself correctly understood the request, it is already apparent from the fact that he was the officer of the abbot. "H" during the meeting with the Budweiser officials asked if there were officials available who could be hired.
