English Translation

The Reichsministerium für Armor und Kriegsproduktion (Ministry of Armor and War Production) and the Reichsstelle (Reichsstellen), which operates in the management areas and establishes the link between the 30 test centres in Berlin and the 12 pre-examination centres in Prague in the field of export control, can be clearly measured. In the field of food and agriculture, the number of my senior officials and employees, which used to be 70, has decreased to 41 civil servants and employees - 12 female employees - in the area of agriculture and food. It should be borne in mind that the whole distribution system, the market order and the associations are only created completely new in recent years and that the war economy must be aligned. The association of agriculture and forestry with a operating apparatus of approx. 1100 persons and 24,800 honorary members count in his ranks now only loo German staff, as- of only 42 in executive posts. In all market associations, which operate the main associations of the rest of the Reich. (a) the staffing level of the forestry department has also fallen to a figure after the submission of a total of 25 forest officials, which has to be doubted whether the major requirements for forestry management can still be properly met. In addition to the head of the department, which has at the same time one or two sections of the Ministry of Finance, only officials of higher education are employed in the central authority. In the case of further staff deductions, the necessary involvement in the autonomous financial management could no longer be maintained for general fiscal policy, tax revenue and the transfer of the matricular contribution. It is worth noting that various of the most important tax administrations, which were occupied by German, had to be left to Czech boards of directors in the meantime. Thus, for example, there are only clear imperial officials with regard to the national and financial tax administrations Moravian-Ostrava and Olomouc. 8. As far as the technical departments are concerned, reference is made only to the situation with the Deutsche Dienstpost for illustration. Of a total of 209 forces, 111 remained, among them 50 Bedi@nstete of the vintages 1894 to 1902. The deductions had to the Fofge that the postal transport service to some extent. the Czech postal service had to be delivered, including the postal service of the troops with an open address. If the staff were to be further weakened, the release of the entire German service mail in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia would not be prevented. In summary, it must be said that the last confiscation operation has reached a state in which the execution of the important tasks of war can no longer be carried out, even if all forces are tensed, in a form in which supervision is carried out.
