Z The Head of the Department of Finance Prague, 2l September 194 VII/1 = T = 1730/44 Inister Office To the 3 22nd SEP. 1944 Head of the Minister's Office he r Subject: Special allocation of tobacco products to the district heads of the NSDAP for representation purposes Reference: Letter of the Deputy Gauleiter Sudetenland of the Nazi Party of 4 September 1944 The tense tobacco supply situation requires extreme austerity in the management of stocks. Tobacco products can therefore only be made available to a small extent for representation purposes. I believe that it is reasonable for the nine circuit leaders of the NSDAP in Prague, Pilsen, Klattau, Budweis, Königgrätz, Brno, Iglau, Olmütz, Moravian-Östrau until further notice, as long as the supply situation allows, to provide a total of 9oo pieces of Ziga rescue monthly from 1 October 1984 on payment. I propose to follow tobacco products from the party liaison office for all nine circuit leaders and to leave the distribution to the individual circuit leaders. Tobacco products could be received each month, subject to prior telephonic request from the higher tax inspector Donath (referral 4o85l Kl.224) at the Ministry of Finance, room 242, for payment. I am adding the letter of the Deputy Gauleiter of 4 September 1984. Hrevnse 8lerb St.M.√ A-48 a/44
