2...August...1942 Telex 19.820 - Flap 200 F.III. Zn.:0B/M. 370 DER LANDESHAPTSTADT BRÜNN gn4 Herr Oberregierungsrat Dr.G i e s s , Ss-Obersturmbannführer,personal speaker of the State Secretary, Prague, Burgstadt. Dear Doctor! On Monday the 3l.d.M. The previous children's home of the city of Brno, which I took over from the old municipal council,is a building that is derisory of all claims to a child's house.As you can see from the photo supplement, the newly prepared youth home /:formerly Apprentice's Home:/ has been designed to be a building which meets all requirements externally and internally. I ask you to forward the enclosed letter to the Minister of State with an endorsement on your part. My attempt to name this new youth home "Reinhardt Heydrich Youth Home of the City of Brno" stems from the idea that the murdered Obergruppen-führer will thus also place a worthy monument in Brno. At the same time, I would like to ask that a representative of Mr Reichsprotektor should attend the opening ceremony on Monday, at 10 a.m., between the Secretary of State. I would also like to thank you for this mediation and remain with Heil Hitler! UG Your Miue Lord Mayor. 568
