Attachments: 1 booklet 4 loose attachments I send back the input of the SS-Uscha Preidl sent to me. Copies of the opinion of the Director of the Ear Clinic of 3 December 1943, of the director of the Children's Hospital of 3December 1943, with statements by the participating doctors Dr.Zippl, Dr.Riha,Dr.Baier, Drs.Tiemann and the Obersister Schmidt, as well as a statement by the Rector of the German Charles University of 16 December 1943. I summarize the opinion of the clinic directors and doctors as follows: 1) The admission of the child Preidl to the ear clinic followed on August 19, 1943. The operation was determined,as there was no fever at all (37.2),the child had a longer journey and was not sober,for the following morning,as is always the case in such cases. The mother had to be accommodated with the child in the only empty bed (cimner with 15 beds). Another and better accommodation of the patient who arrived unannounced in the evening was not possible, as a whole floor of the clinic was closed as a result of repair and cleaning work. The other patients in the room suffered neither from severe diseases nor from infectious diseases. The administration of milk was not possible because the prescribed portions of milk were spent on the patients and there are no milk reserves, whereas, even at night, tea is available in sufficient quantities for each department. It is doubted by the director of the ear clinic that Czech patients dare to fight against German patients. If e had nevertheless occurred in this case, it would have been the right and the duty of the mother to show this. It seems incomprehensible to the hospital management that the mother had to go to the toilet to wrap the child, since she was allowed to light up in the room, and a spacious clean bathroom was placed in the bedroom, where a table was suitable as a changing dresser. The head of the ear clinic observes that, despite non-registration, the child was immediately admitted and placed under the supervision of ./. CL.
