Mr. Eing.: 22.NOV.19 41 Staatsselretüir Karl Hermann Fran 'Tgb. Nr. Prag. Subject: Industrial deportation to the Protectorate. Dear Mr. State Selretary! $/ Thanks to your support at the time and my continued efforts, the timber industry that the Drabek brothers and consorts brought to the Frotektorate, using my masine constructions and production processes, was able to remove from the Czech sphere of interest, by acquiring the remaining 44 & 56 ý shares - I had already acquired them - but under great financial sacrifices,in my place. This eliminates a danger which threatened the smelted Sudetenland woodbead industry in its existence. By informing you, Mr State Secretary, I would like to thank you repeatedly for the support you have given me. With the best recommendations and best advice, Vghnny St. SoM-99a41
