29 GROUP ECONOMY Prague, 13 November 1941. Dejudigungsreferat senate. II/1 Jd - 22571/41. SLE Herrn Oberregierüngsrat Dr.G i e s 13.NOV. 1947 im H a u s e. Betr.:_Fa.Groß-Porschitscher Buntweberei,Leinenwarenfabrik Arnold KRAUS, GROSS-PORSCHITSCH a/Mettau. As applicants for the above company were involved in the close choice: Dipl.Ing.Arnold LEIHBERG, Baltendeubsehrer, S. Ing. PATZAK-POOR, Königinhof, SS-Obersturmführer HEMPEL, and Gottlieb KNERICH,Königinhof. LEIHBERG, who is a non-specialist, has resigned as an applicant since he has refused to acquire the company together with an expert. Ing.PATZAK-POOR has applied for Arnold KRAUS because there was no possibility of acquiring a company in Königinhof, he has explained to my department that he is asking to be employed as an applicant at the stock company for textile industry in Königinhof so that he can maintain his own business. SS-Obersturmführer HEMPEL is a participant in the war and a graduate merchant. Gottlieb KNERICH has worked for many years in the company Arnold KRAUS as a specialist. I therefore consider it appropriate to grant permission for the acquisition of the company Arnold KRAus SS-Sturmfänger HeMPEL together with KNERICH. The necessary capital is available when using Reichswirtschaftshilfe, +/. S TM-179 a/41
