Dear Party Member Luther!

As an attachment I am sending you the minutes of the meeting that took place on 20.1.1942.  Since now, fortunately, the basic line regarding the practical final solution of the Jewish question has been established and there is complete agreement on the part of the agencies involved, I would like to ask you to send your specialist to the necessary detailed discussions for the purpose of completing the draft requested by the Reich Marshal, in which the organizational, technical and material prerequisites for the practical start of the solution work are to be shown.

I intend to hold the first meeting of this kind on March 6, 1942, at 10:30 a.m., in Berlin, Kurlurstenstrasse 116.  I would like to ask you to ask your clerk to get in touch with my assigned advisor, the ss-Ubersturm-bannfuhrer E I C H M A N N , for this purpose.

Heil Hitler!

Yours

(Reinhard Heydrich)
