18 Dr. von Burgsdorff Deputy Secretary of State Prague, 28 January 1942. 5%. - Mr.'gtaatssäre. I note the following : 1) Your telephone conversation with Gauleiter Henlein, as Hülsen told me, led to an extremely energetic appearance of the representative of the government Aussig, who has clearly explained that the non-supply of Prague is excluded and that in the repetition of the breakdown with the sharpest means would be intervened against the leading persons. 2) Although the breakdown has been triggered by the defect of the gripper (on the excavator), it has its actual reason in the insufficient supply of the power plant with coal. This too low supply is due to the frost and because other customers of the coal have not been radically switched off=. This is because of the fact that power= works and pits belong to various.Figs and that the pits are stopped by their syndicate to supply the other customers (house fire, industrial supply, pp.) more effectively.This is now radically removed= and made sure that first and foremost the power plant supplies Cet This seems to me to be the case. furavvorh
