Bearb To the higher SS - and police leader at the basy Reichsprotektor in Bohemia and Moravia, Mr. State Secretary F r a n k P r a g FE3E3E33 Dear State Secretary ! In reply to your letter of 1.8.l940 I am happy to take over the costs of SS guarding if they are assigned teams of the General SS. However, if, as can be read from the above letter, the SS forces were involved, the payment by the Wehrmacht would be difficult because the SS command force had its own war budget and would have to charge such amounts there. A refund between the individual households does not take place during the war according to the decree OKW of 22 January 1940, Az.58 a 10 WH (IIa) No. 4362/39. I may ask for a return order so that the matter can be settled as soon as possible. W.B. HeilHitler ! anfhloan tiwerin. 91418 General of Infantry.
