ZZ 27 I would like to point out that, in bringing together the people's German families, the medical concerns and orders which are intended to avoid further spread of diseases must be kept in the strictest possible way. II. With regard to the distribution of the people's Germans, I had first made a contingent of 14 000 families available to the higher 2 and police leader Warthe and approved the following circles: Wielun ... 1 500 families Lask .. 1 200 » Sieradsch . 1500 y Turek .. 1800 « Lodsch-Land 800 » Lentschüß 1300 » Kutno .... 1 200» Gostynin 1 850 » Leslau . 1500 » .1350 » 14 000 families In the meantime it has been decided that a further 4000 families, i.e. 18,000 families, will be made available to the Warthegau. Half of these other 4000 families are to be found in the Konin district and half in the above-mentioned circles within the framework of the local possibilities. It has also been decided that a settlement of ethnic Germans from Wolhynia, Galicia and the Narew area in Gdansk-West Prussia is not possible. On the other hand, in the administrative district of Zichenau (East Prussia) 1000 woolyniaGerman families are fed. I reserve the right to decide on the settlement area of the Galicia-German miners. When measuring in the individual circles it is important to take into account the fact that in the single villages no Volhynia German settlements are created, but a found mixture with already existing or later to be measured other German peasant families is sought. With regard to the court leaders and the admission organization in Warthegau, I refer to the order of the Higher 4 and Police Leader Warthe of February 21, 1940 — Eo/No Tgb. Nr. VIII 169/40g — which I have agreed to The non-working-capable folk Germans cannot remain in the Old Reich, but must be sat down together with the other ethnic group in the intended reception circles.
