You are angry, I understand! But I do not mean to do you any harm, you will get your money back! I do not think you understand what is happening in Germany, the German population, which I am part of, is suffering like no other nation! Taxes and emergency regulations are eating us alive, but it will get better! Sooner or later a national government will emerge, and then the situation will be cleared up and we can earn and pay again! Just think, a poor season, then the banking crisis in summer, that all lowers the income and you cannot keep up. Then the taxes, I pay 4,000.00 marks per year and there is not much left for me to keep! Like I said, we are a nation at the abyss and only the Hitler regime can help! I myself also fight in the Hitler movement and we will sooner or later be victorious. Communists threw stones into my two large shop windows about 4 weeks ago, because I am a supporter of Hitler, but, of course, it has been taken care of by my insurance. Help by speaking up for Germany, my dear Theodor, because America has the power to stop the criminal policies of the French and then the foreign money would also be safe. So please do not be mad at me, you will get your money back, but right now I am not able to! For now, I send my kind regards to you and your family, Your cousin, Hans Rehder Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Hopefully, you have received my letter from Zurich! Today, dearest Theodor, I once again send you the debt obligation for the money you gave me. Unfortunately, times are still not as good and I cannot repay you yet. Today the situation is even worse than it was back then when I borrowed money from you! But I refuse to lose hope, it will surely get better in Germany, because the world cannot exist without Germany. The ratings will improve and then I will repay my debt to you! I hope you will bear with me until then! Just think, right now the dollar is traded at 10,000.00 marks and sometimes even higher and who knows what will happen soon! The French have pushed further into Germany, invaded our industrial district and you can only imagine the consequences for the German people! Everything is getting more expensive, coal is already barely affordable and now how will it be next winter? But the time will come when the French will be beaten, an old saying goes: “God does not let trees grow in heaven” currently these scoundrels are so boisterous and they are doing whatever they want to do! England and America, but especially England, which is suffering under the French policies, cannot do anything because the French military is now the strongest! Now America also wants to withdraw its occupying troops and this is deplored deeply by the Germans, because we would rather have the Americans here, instead of the French with their black hordes! Health-wise we are all doing fine, thank God. Dad is always sickly, but he still does his banking every day! The shoe shop is not working at all! People cannot cope with the tremendous devaluation of the mark and so they do not buy anything! Banking is doing the best, and here in Sylt the exchange business is good, because we are located right at the border! I work in exchange every now and then! At least as much as I can, for I am out of money too often! I always sell my foreign currency to Flensburg, but because it takes 8-10 days for me to get my money back, I am broke again before I get it. But I have still made quite a lot of money! But like I said, because of the constant devaluation of the mark, it would not even be enough for the strongest man! Dad's bank is doing great! The last season was very good because there were many foreigners here, also Americans! You could also come over for a visit now, even though the prices are high, it will be quite cheap for you! Come and see us, we have enough room and you will like Westerland in the summer! Now I want to inform you about some of the prices! Boots for men approx. 25-32,000 M, a pound of butter 2,800 M, a pound of sugar 300 M, resoling men's boots 5,500 M, a pound of beef 850 M, a pound of roast meat 900-1,000 M! Now you can imagine what sums we have to calculate with! Poor people cannot buy any meat anymore for themselves! A tailored suit for men costs 90-120,000 M. Like I said before, it is still cheap here for foreigners, but the poor Germans can only afford a little for themselves! How are you over there, hopefully you are all doing well! We have not heard from Henry Voss in a while, tell him he should not be so lazy about writing! What are George and Louis doing! I hope you will write me a long letter, so that I can hear from you over there! They are now starting to build a dyke through the mudflats here in Sylt! In 3-4 years the trains can go directly from Hamburg to Westerland! For us businessmen the construction of the dyke is a good thing, because the workers make money and we can hopefully sell a lot! Now, dearest Theodor, Martha and children, I send my kind regards to all of you, write soon again, Max Rehder Please, give my regards to all relatives! My wife also sends her regards though you have not met! Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Transatlantic Connections Document Translation Translation Westerland, Sylt, 15 Jan 1931 Dear Theodor & family! I have received your lovely letter with all your news and I am really happy about it. Every time I hear about America, I get homesick. I have waited until today to write back to you, because I wanted to send you a check over 420.00 Reich marks. But I did not manage to do so because we are going through bad times, so I can only send you 200.00 marks today. Dear Theodor, you have to be satisfied with this for today because money in Germany is starting to become a rarity. There is no money left. Business is slow because nobody has the money to buy anything. Just imagine, there are about 5 million unemployed people in Germany, you can imagine how trade is suffering because of that. Of course, we own a large warehouse for our footwear, but what good is that when the purchasing power is non-existent. I could easily send you several 100 pairs of shoes, but that does not work. But Theodor, you do not have to worry, even though the times are bad, your money is safe and I will repay you. I am sure that money is not so scarce where you are and that you do not necessarily need it now. Health-wise, we are all fine, which is very important. Dad, mother, they are all still alive and well and my brother John is about to get married on Jan 20. His bride is from Gelsenkirchen, which is in the Rhine area. My brother, as you know, owns a café and a guest house in Kampen on Sylt and his bride is very competent in his business. We can only guess what the next season will bring, but I am sure less than before, because travel is dwindling. But we do not want to lose hope, because even though we are going through hard times, we can make it through if we are cautious and save our money. If Germany could only free itself from the damn Youngplan, a lot would change. But we have such a cowardly administration that says yes to everything our former enemies lay upon us. Now they started to organize a national administration for Germany and I think everything will be different then. Then we will have decent people back at the top and not all of the traffickers and Jews. We do not really have winters here and only 8 days of snow, today it is raining again. Tell me, when will someone of the family come over to Germany to visit us! Make it happen and come over or at least send Louis or George. I seem to only hear from you, but I want to write to Uncle Peter today as well. For now I send my regards to you and please write to me soon. Yours, Hans Rehder Stamps on the stationery: Death to the lie, do away with the Dawes Plan! Think of your child and the future! Become a National Socialist.
