64g. However, I do not see any possibility of this in normal legal proceedings, since caregivers have formally observed all the provisions and unfortunately Thürmer was not a public official of the city of Brüx at that time, but merely a contract employee. As a result, the decision on his claim is not the administrative authority, but a labour court. I would like to send you a copy of the national authority's decision to clarify this. Nor does the reclamation decree of the Reichsprötektor provide any assistance, since 'e l./ Thürmer is not responsible for the Protectorate, .S 2./ the decree itself is limited in its effect to an overly narrow circle, 3./ the Reichsministerium des Inneren in Berlin interprets the decree very closely, almost according to the letters. The given legal provisions do not provide for administrative authorities to deal with this, so that in my opinion compensation for Pg. Thürmer could only be covered from 9S to a political fund if Thürmen does not want to take the cumbersome and less promising path of the lawsuit against caregivers. In the annex I transfer the draft of a letter of the state authority 45422 to the Reichsstatthalter Sudetenland. Before sending, however, I wait for your further notice, as you will perhaps find a solution cheaper for Thuringians.
