Thus, at the time of the Austrian "repression" the Czechs had occupied 12.5% of the jobs allocated by the state. Up to the year 1938, the number of German state employees fell to l3; the numbers of Czech state employees grew to 45. Today, about 78% of all Czechs to be assigned by the state are occupied.

In the state forest administration in Stubenbach / formerly Schwarzenberg scher Possession/ are today 5 Czechs and only 2 Germans, while in the year l9l8 under the Schwarzenberg administration 6 Germans and l Czechs were employed. In addition, the tax office and the health insurance company , which existed in 19l8, were transferred to the Czech Schüttenhofen.
