Subject: Damp-proofing
work in the Krematorium of the POW camp
Reference:
Inspection of the worksite by SS Captain (S) Bischoff on
3/9/42
Enclosure/
Huta, Hoch- und Tiefbau-
Aktiengesellschaft
Kattowitz, Upper Silesia
The two excavations for the above building were
completed about 10 days ago [since 25th August], so that the
damp-proofing work absolutely must begin immediately.
After
several conversations on this subject with your foreman Herr
Stephan, the start of this work has been fixed for Monday, 7/9/42.
The Bauleitung expects this date to be respected without fail, for
the lateness of the season allows of no further delay. |
