S.2835th Eing.: 27 APR. 1942 The Ministry of Economic Affairs and Labour rejected the application of the Or- bis-A.G. by decision of 21 April 1942 G.Z.E 5406-16/4 (allegedly based on a decision of Mr. Oberbaurat Saupe). 1.) The Magistrate of the capital city of Prague has already granted permission for the building changes by decision of 23 February 1942 Z.III.-397l/42 - D 14/d 1896. 2.) The works are merely the restoration of an apartment on the IVth floor, which was temporarily used for office purposes. 3.) My constant presence in the Orbis building is thus necessary because of the kind of work that requires a willingness to work at all times, as well as for political reasons, and is desired by the competent authorities. 4.) My previous apartment in Prague III., Melnikergasse 8 was placed at the disposal of the SD head of Prague on 1 July I942. mm 69999 Counsellor-General Dr.G i e s, b.w.
