In the follow-up to the report of 10 June 1943 - VI-6-Iglau l0 - it is mentioned that the state president- Reichsbeauftragsverwaltung - in Brno has campaigned for the improvement of the merchant Elster. The considered Iglau wholesalers were commissioned by him to receive the merchant elster as far as possible and to supply it mainly with scarce goods. Unfortunately, the Elster's wish to supply it with hardware could not be met, since these goods have recently been tied to receipts. Elster is a government commissioner of the city of Triesch, for which he receives a monthly allowance of 200.-- RM. This has substantially improved his financial situation. St. M.πst -4e/42
