34 The Armaments Inspector Prague, 5 October 1943. The Reicha Minister for Armament and Ammunition in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. Minlsteramt /99 - 6. OKT. 1943 To the Herr Reichssttt Gauleiter Dr. J u 89 Obergruppenfül WienI. Inoritenplatz 8 Bätricht: Raum- und Wohnungsnot in Gross-Brünn. In the course of the war-related transfer of armaments from the rest of the Reich to the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia, the aircraft engine production of the Klöcknerwerke from Hamburg has been transferred to Brno-Gurein for several months. Among the difficulties facing the expansion of production in Gurein, the focus is currently on the accommodation of the members of the following groups. In the meantime, some Czech workers, who are not yet familiar with the Aooc orta, are still to be accommodated, especially for exhibition accommodation. However, I am particularly concerned about the German membership of the Elöcknerwerke ad hreFehillengegürigen, who, as a result of the destruction of Himbure, move to a more salutary extent and at a much faster pace than originally planned, than with Gross-Brünn. Overall, we have to calculate with the addition of about seoo German folk zenoesen.
