| The selection of the
population will be carried out by the chief of the security police in
collaboration with SS Lieutenant General [SS Obergruppenfuehrer] Lorenz. A
preliminary condition for repopulating these cities is the deportation of Poles
and the evacuation of their dwellings. Members of the Polish intelligentsia are to be deported in the first place. In distributing the population over the cities, I request that SS Colonel [SS Standartenfuehrer] Hayler be included in the commerce division. |
