Your Ordinance of 9 December 1935—Ia 11012.
Following up my report of 11 May 1942 on the situation, I beg to inform that I have, in the meantime, taken the same steps in Bremen which I had taken in Hamburg as a consequence to the Fuehrer’s speech. The authorities at Bremen (the Lord Mayor, the Kreisleiter, the President of the Police, the head of the Secret State Police, and the head of the SD district) have made the same arrangements with me as did the respective Hamburg authorities.
