According to the guidelines of the Reichsführer, the submission of the 25.ooo People's Germans is excluded. If it is feasible at all, it is only in such a way that the people's Germans are housed in mass camps in the purely Czech territory and must remain in these mass camps for the long term. A relaxed accommodation with farmers is not possible. Therefore, the submission in Bohemia and Moravia would entail all the consequences of a camp stay. If accommodation in Bohemia and Moravia must be carried out under all circumstances, • the responsibility for these consequences should be rejected from the outset. e.g. F i sche r W-Standartenführer certified; tisteun.
