English Translation

f/-h The administration in Sudetenland 17 of January 10, 1939 (RGBl. I 43) is organized in the following way: the mountain offices in the Sudetetenland, namely in Karlovy Vary, Komotau, Brüx and Teplitz are partly under the Oberbergamt in Wroclaw, partly the Oberenbergamt in Freiberg (Saxony). The division does not follow exactly the political structure of the SuDEtenland. The Oberbergamt in Freiberg is also suitable for the districts of the administrative districts of Karlovy Vary and Aussig, but with the exception of the rural or municipal districts of Friedland, Reichenberg, Gablonz, Hohenelbe and Trautenau. These districts and all counties of the Regierungsbezirk Troppau are subordinated to the Oberbergamt in Breslau. Important and not uninteresting is the following fact. Vo. to the decree of the Führer on the administration of the Sudeten-German territories of 8 October 1938 (RGBl. I 1348), that the powers previously granted to the Supreme Administrative Court in Czechoslovakia should be exercised by the Verwaltungshof with the Reichskommissar in the SuDeten- German territories, ordered the 3rd implementing vo. to Sudetengau set of 21 February 1940 (R GBl. I 411) that the function of this designated administrative court should be performed by the Administrative Court in Vienna pending an end-to-date regulation. It should be noted that the administrative court in Czechoslovakia was largely modelled on the old Austrian administrative court, one of the few authorities in the Czech Republic, to which the Germans also had confidence, at least until 1933. After all, the activities of the Administrative Court in Vienna with regard to the Reichsgau Sudetenland do not apply exactly the same rules as with respect to the Ostmarkgaue. However, the details are not to be discussed in detail. In this connection, it follows that Articles 10 and 12 of the Czech-Slovak Gesetyes concerning the organization of political administration (as amended by the Gesetye of 14 July 1927, the Gesettye Collection and Regulations No 125) and the Procedural Regulation of 13 January 1928 (collection of readings and Regulations no. It should be noted, however, that with the third vote on the decree of the Führer and Reichskanzler on the administration of the Sudeten-German territories of 22 October 1938 (RGBl. I 1453) in agreement with the regulation of the Reichsführer of the 3 and chief of the German police in the Ostmarkgauen and later in the Eastgauen, was authorized to take the measures necessary to maintain the security and order even outside the otherwise established boundaries and to transfer these powers to other bodies. He made use of this power and issued an order on 25 October 1938. 2
