The head of the Berlin NW 7, 21 September 2939. Ja23f gi 441/39. Under the Linden 74 telex: 120034 Srhg .6319.5. 23/ lafige S Wy. Dear party comrade Frank! $.d.dd./418.40. I am today sent a letter from the Reichsführer W about the request of my ministerial councillor Dr. Bader of l6.8.39, the police president of Brno, 4-main-sturmführr Dr. Schwabe, regarding. I can not reach ministerial councillor Dr. Bader now, since he is acting as captain of the front service, but approve this letter neither in terms of content nor in form. I can prejudge that in principle I have instructed my gentlemen to submit the letters to ministers, secretaries of state, senior presidents and governors of the Reich to me personally for signature. I can only imagine that Dr. Bader, who, by the way, cannot be suspected of being a bureaucrat, because he is a National Socialist, here in a hurry he signed a letter whose content he did not get exactly. Furthermore, it is known here that we do not participate at all in the occupation of the police administration posts in the Protectorate, i.e. my secretary of state, 4-Brigadeführer, Karl Hermann Frank, Prague.
