Prague, 3 October 1942. 11 To the head of the Reich M. B o r m a n n n , head of party chancellery in München. Subject: Use of Czech teachers at higher schools in the inner German territory. Her letter of 16 September 1962, without number of very revered party comrades B or r m m a a n ! I would like to repeat the reasons which led me to consider the exchange of Czech and German teachers in higher schools, at least as the use of the Czech teachers' war. The special popular political upheavals of Bohemia and Mehrens demand, even during the war, the purposeful expansion of the German school system, which can only fulfil its tasks if it has enough German teachers. These teachers must be trained at their own teacher training institutions, which also familiarize their pupils with the political questions of the area. It was therefore necessary to set up a number of new German teacher training institutions and to expand the existing institutions accordingly. In the case of the general lack of teachers to which the German school system suffers, the necessary teachers for our teacher training institutes are at present best able to exchange 60 czech. The German school system of Bohemia and Moravia could also pursue the tasks of popular politics which it has grown up in the war (and the higher school system in the old kingdom would also win through the supply of new teachers). The Reichsssicherheitshauptamt, the services of the Reichskommissar for the consolidation of the German people, the inspection of the home German schools and the administration of the NSLB bill for this experimental and limited use.
