English Translation

St.S As far as the German Cultural Association is concerned -Hauptsturmführer Fischer under the 4.v.M. - sign B.d.S. III 7489/41 had proposed that the Cultural Association be dissolved. I do not consider the proposal to be happy. First of all, it is not yet clear that the party has taken over the school work carried out by the Cultural Union until now. If the cultural association is now dissolved, then, if an organisation corresponding to the cultural union is required, a cumbersome re-establishment is necessary. In my opinion, the Cultural Association can continue to exist unreservedly and I would suggest that it be constituted to the extent that its legal existence is out of question. The tasks remaining to the Cultural Union are sufficient even after the abolition of school work in order to justify its continued existence. As I understand it, Ministerial Conductor Fuchs intends to cut off the relevant Frege in the near future, the four-group leader Frenk.
