To 0.a. Letter, which was received here on 9.12.39, I may first ask for the details of the events which gave rise to the resolution there and to the value judgments in the letters. Only then can I comment on the further content of the letter, since I was not aware of the processes up to now. However, I must point out that the sudden withdrawal of works protection from the armaments industry before a replacement is ensured poses a threat to the safety of the war industry in the Protectorate, for which the ordering department bears full responsibility. T a d aa formations and replacement formations are available. The former are fully engaged in railway protection, the latter are involved in training for the army of war and cannot be used for guarding purposes.
