(4) Polish civilian workers who have sexual intercourse with German women, after having been racially examined, will be sent to concentration camps as specialist workers if they prove to be incapable of being Germanized, or if they can be Germanized, to the SS special Camp Hinzert. Independently of these measures, reports will be submitted to the Reich Security Main Office in the usual manner. If executions are being considered, a temporary protective custody will be ordered, also in doubtful cases, and immediate application will be made to the Reich Security Main Office to pass down a decision.
