| LETTER FROM DEFENDANT VON SCHNITZLER TO SS BRIGADIER GENERAL
GREIFELT, 19 JULY 1941, CONCERNING FARBEN'S ACQUISITION OF “BORUTA”

Dear Mr. Greifelt,
With reference to our recent
conversation, I do not wish to fail to inform you that our negotiations with
the Main Trustee Office East for the purchase of the “Boruta" chemical
works at Zgierz near Lodz have been concluded. A sum of 5 million reichsmarks
has been fixed as purchase price for the whole of the installations and stores.
Both sides are in agreement on the provisions of the purchase contract which
the HTO [Main Trustee Office East] will now draw up. The special investment and
welfare grants which we have taken over in connection with the acquisition of
the "Boruta" in accordance with our letter to the Main Trustee Office of 20
February 1941, will again be definitely confirmed by separate correspondence.
I take the opportunity to express once more my sincere thanks for the
considerate attitude you have shown towards our offer, and for your decision,
and assure yon again that in developing the "Boruta" we shall do exemplary work
from the technical, no less than from the social and national-political, point
of view. We assume that we may, if necessary, confidently apply to you for help
in overcoming any difficulties which may arise in putting into effect, on the
spot, the projects which we shall take in hand at the earliest possible moment.
|

| With Sincere regards and Heil Hitler! |
