At the time the RFý was interested in the sanatorium Beckmann in Brno. j-group leader Frank had been instructed to provide the sanatory for the purposes of the weapons. This happened without, however, the plans aimed at the acquisition of the sanitarium and its conversion into a t-hospital were advanced. Recently, the Herr Reichsprotektor is personally interested in the hospital and would like to buy it for the German Red Cross. It is therefore urgently necessary if f-Oberfünter Dermietzel takes immediate care of the situation and ensures that the sanatorium, if there is still an interest in this, is immediately converted into a hospital. I would like to ask for the appropriate further cause and a brief message, which has been arranged on your part in the matter. With cordial greetings and salvation Hitler! JAI 2.)
