Fr a n k , Pr a g , Czernin-Palais. Prague, 23 January 1940. Your characters Your message from Our Sign Day Subject Dear Secretary of State ! On your caring birthday, I ask you to accept my most cordial congratulations. You were lucky enough to be able to do positive things for people and homeland in relatively young years. This will not be forgotten to you and all those who have seen your work during the wartime can only wink that you can continue to put your calm determination at the service of the great cause. As far as I am personally concerned, as you will remember, three years ago I made myself available to you unconditionally and with all due regard. It will probably not seem so important to you, but to me it is a need to express my joy at the fact that I have not regretted this for a moment since then. I greet and remain with Hail Hitler ! Your always rejoicing Risoege
