35 51 There are so far self-employed farmers among the settlers. Since it is not possible to assign these farms in the old kingdom, fie shall be compensated for their left-over possession elsewhere, but moreover in dependent labour. In order to exert pressure in this regard on the settlers, the processing of the compensation applications depends on the acceptance of the work offered by the employment offices. An application for the granting of compensation must be submitted to the Deutsche Umsiedlungs-Treuhand G.m. b.H., Berlin W 8, Mohrenstr. 42/44. E8 is an indication that the former independent peasants are not offered any subordinate work, but that the previous living conditions of the settlers are taken into account when entering the labour market. In the case of farmers who have hitherto been self-employed, there is a tendency to take up industrial work, and consideration must be given to this when entering work and not to the assumption of agricultural work. This is not the case for small and micro-farmers, who have not had a higher standard of living than that of the German agricultural worker. The Gaueinsassführer of the Volksdeutsche Mittelstelle gave instructions to the camp leaders some time ago to submit application documents of officials and state agents from the circles of the Umsiedler in the camps. If this has not yet happened in one case or another, this must be done immediately. Non-seizable resettlers who do not live together with relatives must be accommodated in homes of the NSV. or the Neichsärzteführer. Prior examination of their ability to live with relatives by the camp physician or the consulting physician of the employment office is necessary. It is not possible to provide generally valid guidance on the application of coercive measures if Umsiedler refuses to leave the camp after reassignment of reasonable work and housing. It has to be decided here from case to case by the departments responsible for caring for the work and housing, to what extent any coercion can be exercised. However, I declare by this that the resettlements who are unwilling to take up work are deprived of the pocket money granted to them and their families. In addition, these students must be deprived of the right to temporary work during their stay in the camp.On behalf of Dr. Fähndrich D. Re-Germanization of lost German blood 1. Einsass von eingermungsfähigkeiten Polen The cleansing of the integrated eastern regions of foreign-racial perfones is with the most important seal that must be reached in the German east *). This is the cardinal task of national politics, which the Reichsführer 2, Reichskommissar für die Festigung deutschen Volkstums, will have to cope with in the adjacent eastern regions. In solving this task, which is closely related to the problem of ethnicity in the eastern regions**), the superior and absolutely decisive importance is attached to the scoring points of language, education and the confession of racial selection. Thus it is necessary for a permanent cleaning of the German eastern regions, the foreign-born elements living there are not settled or will be *) The related economic and labour-related problems should not be addressed here. **) See the section "Cultural policy — question of ethnicity". 5
