- 4 - 148 Subdivision of the Post Group into three groups corresponding to the structure of the old Reich, which had been carried out practically from the beginning, would therefore have been just as fair as the division of the Transport Group. It would also have fully justified the maintenance of independence. 3.) If the insinuation of the Bost group under a non-specialist head of department with a view to the enormous wealth-related tasks had to cause the greatest difficulties, then the induction under a divisional function, which belongs to the transport sector and is at present still group head of the Reichsbahn group, is intolerable, since the diversity of interests and the often different conception of a number of questions between the Reich Post and the Reich Transport Minister must bring the head of division into conflict, which, even in the greatest effort to achieve objectivity, must make it difficult, if not detrimental, the factual decisions. I can therefore only see a proper regulation in the recognition of an independent department of Rost, for which the current structure of the Post Group can be essentially based.
