Law firm rely on special sheet: ns *itrdoenomod S°) Mr. Reischauertdoost rerdutnedartutatedo- by the hand yon Mr. General Reinefarth. atatarcrey SEE In matters of compensation for expenses to the general representatives of the ministers I decide on the there. - without any indication that, apart from you, the following general representatives will receive an allowance of K 2,00.-- monthly less the ministerial allowance with effect from 1 May: Ministerial Councillor Dr. Dennler, Ministerial Boardlor Dr Heckel, Presidential Chief Kraus, Ministeral Councillor Schmeisser and Chief Executive Officer Dr. Staehly. In addition, with the same time point and in the same amount, the expenses are compensated: Mi- nisterialrat Dr.v.Busse as the head of the Supreme Prize Authority and the Obersturmbannführer Fischer as the director of the Bodenamt für Böhmen und Mähren. To this extent, the subsequent approval of the competent Reichsresorts is to be achieved. I would like to ask you to refrain from re-examination, which is already a solution to which I have only agreed with some fundamental concerns, because the question of compensation for expenses had reached a certain conclusion in negotiations with the Reichsressorts. The fundamental concerns are based on the recognition that the increase in duties for the official resulting from total warfare demands more work and less effort. 2.)
