Gaupropaganda leader Höller and Gaukulturconsultant Dr.Kinzel brought to me on July 1st. her astonishment at the fact that Gauhauptmann Kreisl has been working for me to judge Becking as cheaply as possible that he is a member of the Sudetendeutsche Anstalt für Landes- und Volksforschung in Reichenberg. I have openly explained to Gauhauptmann Kreisl during his telephone call that Becking is considered unbearable here and should disappear from Prague as soon as possible. M-Brigadeführer Kreisl had then stated that he took note of this, but that the way of working with Becking in Reichenberg would be such that his departure from Prague would not prevent her further cooperation. Höller and Kinzel also decided to take Stellyhg against this exclusion of Kreisle.
