/s st.M. VIII c - 42/43g. Prague, 17 July 1944. Secret 1.) Firm bet on special bow: Personally! Self-handed! Mr. Hawranek, The Minister of State has decided that the camps maintained by the deployment staff in Prague are to be cleared quickly - i.e. in ten days at the latest - in order to create space for newly starting, extremely important armaments. I would like to inform you of this and to seek, by all means available, to ensure that the instructions of the Minister of State are complied with. I look forward to the submission of the declaration of execution by 29 July 1944.
