As shown air the enclosed drawings, two 3
muffle incineration furnaces incineration were originally planned for the
Waffen SS POW camp at Auschwitz.
During our conversation of 27/2/42
with the Head of the Amtsgruppe, SS Oberführer [senior Colonel ] Dr Ing
Kammler, at Auschwitz, it was decided that it was decided that the 5 three
muffle furnaces planned for the KL (concentration camp] should he installed at
the KGL [POW camp], and that consequently the two 3 muffle furnaces would be
superfluous to requirements. Messrs Topf & Sons of Erfurt now want to
invoice the operating and administrative costs incurred in studying the project
at |
|
1,769,36 RM |
|
During our conversation of 25/3/42 with the
Head of Office C/III, SS Major Wirtz, it was agreed that the two 3 muffle
incineration furnaces should be transferred to another construction project.
We would therefore ask you to inform Messrs Topf & Sons of Erfurt.
In order to clarify the situation we enclose a copy of this mailer. |
