To the State Secretary at Neichsprotector 3 in Bohemia and Moravia, 4-group leader K.H. Fr a dak 1. Prague. Eing. 14.APR. 1943 Betr.: Commendatory recognition of Tur Czechs in special service. According to a report received here, the widow of the Czech master worker P s o t k a from Wilkosch, who died from the consequences of the serious injuries suffered as a result of his willingness to operate, was followed by the Czech district head in Gaya, F o jt 1, on behalf of the regional authority, by a financial contribution of 1 OoO.- RM. Since the survey/in Wilkosch was carried out by RAV G a y a in order to establish the conditions for a financial contribution to be granted on behalf of the President of the Land, which had provided the notification, it could not have been understood that their payment was then carried out even by the Czech District Chief, it was the good impression that the German authorities in particular had taken up this case and that a reward was only possible under German administration. If the recognition and reward had been carried out by a German official, the German reputation would have been greatly strengthened. Therefore, it was suggested that in the future, recognitions and financial contributions for Czechs would only be made or handed over by German officials. Nfunis. Caon Revoedarian C Y.ns.
