He should do everything to avoid the resignation of Councillor of State Dr. Seyss-Inquart and State-Minister [Bundesminister] Glaise von Horstenau. If some difficulties should arise, Mr. Seyss-Inquart should come to him first of all. 2. Mr. Leopold has already been ordered but has not received the permission to leave his country at the present. The General (der Herr Generaloberst) intends to receive him on the 14th or 15th of January, so that he can give him very definite instructions. Carinhall, January 6 1938 (signed) G. Limberger [Page 198] Berlin W8, Behrenstr. 39a Phone. 165861 6 January 1938 Main Office for the Organizations of National Economy of the NSDAP Prime Minister General Goering Secretary General (Stamp) Arr. January 6 1938 Chief: W. Keppler [Letterhead] To: Minister President General Goering Berlin W 8 Leipziger Strasse 3, Most honorable General! Councillor of State Dr. Seyss-Inquart has sent a courier to me with the report that his negotiations with the Federal Chancellor Dr. Schuschnigg have run aground, so that he feels compelled to return the mandate entrusted to him. Dr. Seyss-Inquart desires to have a discussion with me regarding this, before he acts accordingly. May I ask your advice, whether at this moment such a step entailing automatically, also, the resignation of the Federal Minister Glaise von Horstenau--appears indicated or whether I should put forth efforts to postpone such an action. Furthermore, I have information to the effect that Landesleiter Captain Leopold deposed Dr. Jury, his deputy, while the latter was here in Germany. Captain Leopold is attempting again and again to make his own policy which is in opposition to the wishes of the decisive authorities in the Reich, and continuously obstructs the pending negotiations carried on by Dr. Seyss- Inquart, Dr. Jury, and the consultants for national- political affairs (volkspolitischen Referenten). I take the liberty to pass on to you a copy of a directive of military nature which incidentally came into my hands. It discloses further measures concerning the German border. May I once more ask you, honorable General, for an audience in order to discuss my further activity in the field of economic politics. Heil Hitler! Your sincerely devoted [signed] Keppler
