English Translation

31a was replaced in the Protectorate for the reasons mentioned above, even for the management of a sudeten German labour market does not have the necessary political preconditions, since the above-mentioned political contradictions in this use of the service would have to have an injurious effect on the Reich's employment service. In the spring of last year, Preibsch was appointed as SudetenGerman on the recommendation and proposal of the Gauleiter Konrad Henlein. I cannot undertake another assignment within the framework of the Reichsarbeitsdienst, as I have enough old- Reich German leaders to lead the Altreich-Arbeitsgaue, who have already been working for many years in the Reich-Arbeitsdienst and have proven themselves and are ready for this use. Preibsch would therefore also have to leave the Reichsarbeitsdienst in his replacement from his present task because of a lack of use.
