LINZ inst F/Dö. 2000/45. -2EER g.: 18. JAN. 1945 K.H. 4-Standartenführer. Dr. G i e s. Betr.: Banater Polizei. Oberst Kauch vom Bdo called at my office and informed that, at the order of the Reichsführers i, all members of the Banat police, as far as they are not assigned to the BdS, must be transferred to Salzburg. The Selehshaberde Sicheretsy order of the Reichsführer had been issued at the suggestion of the head of the L. of the SD in Pnee Ordnungspolizei. The Obergruppenführers are said to have granted his consent here- 5·II 1945 and only obtained it, AS that the police officers working at the BdS lead to the Protectorate- I ask for a notification, whether this matter is relevant and point out the following: 43. 0verikap. Only about 1 5o man and lo officers of Banat police are available. These are divided into all camps of the haCor Volksdeutschen and work there as camp leaders, e.g. as employees of the district leaders for the accommodation and care of the South East Germans. The circle leaders agree to continue the action if the Pozlize is deducted with one stroke. If the a levy has to be carried out, a longer period would have to be left in order for the replacement to be performed by appropriate substitutes. I myself see, however, very considerable difficulties occur here. I ask for further instructions. rdeba rroiele fstander-tfunrer. / $\x-69^{/44 EX-Peeo St.
