Neuhaus, on January 1, 1940, directorial committee of the city of Neuhaus. Bürg of the state secretary at the Reidhepotektor in Bühmen and Moravia. Eing.: 13.JAN. 1942 Subject:Bistritzer Bote. 2 Supplements. Herr Oberregierungsrat Dr. Gies, personnel officer of the State Secretary in P r a g. IV. Czernin-Palais. January 1942 I send IHnen the episode l0/ll of the "Bistritzer Botens" and the draft of a field post letter. The incessant attacks on the basic tendency of the German return work in the protectorate at all have driven me --- since all kind attempts to put an end to these abuses, remained unsuccessful --- to a realization that led to my indictment before the court of Niederdonau.From the very first moment I felt that my reaction would cause the most serious dangers for me, but there was nothing else left for me. In the aftermath of the dispute over the article series "Ale sakra " I made the demand that this article series be discontinued and at the same time as a replacement I presented the draft of a field post letter for the admission into the new episode of the "Bistritzer messenger " e Gauleiter Dr.Jury has now finely intervened in the clarification of the matter. A new episode of the "Bistritzer Boten" appeared with a preface by the Gauleiter himself, the Kreispropa+ gandaleiter did not speak at all in this episode and my field post letter was recommended by the local group leader of Neuhaus.I do not object, however, since I have already lent the party a memorial many times.I see only the goal --- X413-46/41
