2 St.S.TAA Prague, 28 December 194o SD 10/V e r t r a u l i c h ! 1941 SB section Peag Plad G.R. with 1 Appendix 118 7. JAN. 1941 Beusbottets pALengeichen: W-Obersturmbannführer Böhme, Prague, with reference to the contents of the annex, sent for information. The elaboration comes from Minister Ziemke and is presented by this on 2nd Mt. 4-group leader Frank. The purpose of the preparation is to demonstrate the necessity of maintaining the office of the representative of the Foreign Office at the Reichsprotektor in Bohemia and Moravia. The reason for this is the recent efforts of the Reichsprotektor to dissolve the department of the representative of the Foreign Office and to let its business be carried out by his office. The driving force in this endeavour is to be Minister Völckers. The matter had already progressed so far that Reichsausenminister v.Ribbentrop dealt with it. Finally, I should like to point out that after a request made by group leader Frank, it is not necessary to make use of the contents of the facility, that you should only take note of it.
