Distribution of the bessariabia Germans to the new settlement areas Jm Connection with the order 21/II of 20 August 1940 (1/0 13f/12. 10. 39) the distribution of the bessarabian German settlers to the Reichsgaue Gdańsk-West Prussia and Wartheland is determined as follows: The following areas are to be considered: the local areas: the areas of Mannburg... 1—12 Albota... 1, 6,7 Albota ..... 2—5 and 8—9 Beresina...... 1-3,7-10 Berefina 4-6 Kischineff 1—5,7-9 in the "Reichsgau" of Warthelands in the German state of Danzig-West Prussians. The area of Kishineff 6 (4 northern Bessarabian municipalities with about 1,300 heads) is corresponding to the origin and structure of these municipalities in the Neg.-Bez. Kattowiß. With a total head count of 83 800 with the agricultural area of 304 000 ha in Bessarabia, the Reichsgau Gdańsk-Westpreußen Reichs Gau Wartheland head count 45 300 38 500 54 % 46 % of the area of the holding ......... 130 500 ha 174 000 ha 42 % 58 %. Of the individual population groups the Reichsgau Gdańsk-West Prussia includes Wartheland from the number of inhabitants of the mother and daughter colonies 53 % 47 % 49 % of the population of the hectare communities ........... 51 » by the urban population (total of 660 heads) 70 » 30 « This division has been chosen taking into account the fact that in the Neichsgau Wartheland there is relatively more land available than in the Reichsgau Gdańsk-West Prussia, but the number of eligible farms is greater in the reichsgau gdansk-west Prussia. However, such changes do not affect the distribution of the local areas to the Reichsgaue. There is no difference in the racial value or the proficiency of the people's grunt parts transferred to the reichsgauen. It should be pointed out that the rural craftsmen and their local areas are to be accommodated. I would ask that, on the basis of the allocation of the local areas, the distribution of the latter be arranged between the districts and presented to me.
