419 copy! The Permanent Representative 16 February 1943. 60141-49App.3626. Mr. Ministerial Conductor, 4-Oberführer Dr. Bertsch Prag II Rudolfsplatz Ministry of Economics and Labour called: Aryanization of the company Ulrich Stancl, Prag XI, Brünner Str.158. Unfortunately, I only come today to confirm the entrance of your brief of 27 January the year. I would like to thank you for the fact that you have forgotten to clarify the context of this case, but it seems that you yourself have not been given a precise instruction, because it is not true that the Perteigens Gebauer only has a capital of RM 5.Ooo,- according to which one of Rm 50,000,--. Dariber, however, has proved an unchildable loan up to RM 500.o00,--. If one now takes into account that the enterprise Stanel is perhaps worth lo0. 000.--- to l50.o 00.- RM, then this capital knowledge should be considered sufficient; for it was always your intention to take into account not only pronounced capitalists in the aryanizations. The fact that I mistakenly felt that there was an arbitrariness rather than a confiscation of assets, I apologize; it should not be very important with regard to the substance of the matter, if I have informed you that the company Werner and Pfleiderer appeared in Stuttgart as an applicant for the company Stancl, only because eg is a binding communication made to me by the government council working at the property office. But it is also here, as so often the case, that no one really knows. It was all the more expedient that I turned directly to you. The company Stancl was seized in October/November 194l, Gebauer was in January 1942 one of the first and most agile applicants among its competitors.
