Zuroynle M Prague, January 15, 1940 Secret Subject: Mediation of telephone conversations between the State Police Department Prague and Gestapa Berlin. Various events in recent times indicate that the telephone calls between the state police department Prague and the secret State Police Office Berlin are being intercepted. the fact that suddenly the police intermediation intervened with the B.d.O. and explained that it misses the interruption of the conversation, because the conversation only concerns private things. In the last days it could be observed that in the request of conversations the police mediation always demanded the name of the caller and the called. The telephone station in the building of the Prague State Police Department has also had to find out on various occasions that the conversations she mediated were suddenly interrupted and that the respective center - police mediation, which mediates the conversation. Wehrmachtsvermittlung - said she would interrupt the conversation if not insured, it JUS led to his official interest and official affairs discussed. From all this it has to be concluded that the telephone calls conducted "on the direct line " cannot be disturbed and, above all, can be carried out completely safely, but that once at the intermediation centres (police power) and perhaps also in the Czernin Palace, over which the direct lines to Berlin run, listening possibilities exist. However, these are all assumptions so far. To what extent this applies in detail still needs a detailed review. I/ fl he36 aregand fou dry Aifer SV 16 7 2 2 5022y3 6 Sorhin m.
