The Inspector of the Higher M and Police Olomouc, 9 February 194 leader for road safety in Moravia GEHEIM 74 Betr.: Activity report for the period from 4 - 10. 2.45 to the HigherM and Police leader for Bohemia and Moravia M-Upper Group leader and General of the Waffen-l u.Pol. K. H. F ran k The first week of his work served the inspector SSM to orientate over the area of responsibility and to connect with the services responsible for road safety. Longer meetings took place with Min. Conductor Dr. D a n c o and Counsellor Dr. M a u s . According to Kdr.der 540.Div., General Lieutenant W i n d e c k , who had not yet been informed about the installation of the inspector SSM and asked for a telephone call back in Prague, Inspector SSM oriented himself in detail to the Ia of the Division about all the forces of the division employed in road safety. The same happened with Kdrs. Mr Maher, Colonel A t e n b e r g e r , with regard to his area of command. Furthermore, contact was made with the KdS Brno for informing the inspector about the gang situation. KdS Brno informs the external offices of the security police Olomouc, Prerau, Wsetin, Ung.Hra- disch and Moravian Ostrau, of which immediately via Brno to inspector SSM notification about event. Sabotageakte or its prevention on the routes is made. In this way it is ensured that a change in the gang activity is taken into account immediately by strengthening the strekkenschutz. In the case of the Landesschützen-Rgt. 182, Prerau, inspector ŠSM convinced himself of the implementation of the safety. It has been found that the variable forces of the L.S. units are subject to their task in general, but the forces employed are too weak to ensure a nearly safe protection of the important railway lines. Therefore, a sharper summary of these forces was ordered after the introduction of new safety units (Volkssturm) by inspector SSM. The route ascent by commands of the Czech railway protection police was re-organized in agreement with the commissioned Reichsbahn oberspektor, who is at the same time used by the KdS Brno as a monitoring body. In addition, German railway police officers are required as the leader of the commandos, which are required by the Reichsbahndirektion Wroclaw bezweits Oppeln. An reinforcement of the line commandos by railway police was arranged. Inspector SSM also convinced himself by taking a look at the inspection plans and by sampling the functioning of the tracks from the Böhm.-Mähr.Bahnen. Volkssturmbatl.33,Falkenau, arrived on 7. 2.45 16.30 in Olmütz. Missing carabiners (without rifle belts) were delivered from Prague until 9. 2.45; there is still a complete lack of cleaning equipment. It would be very desirable to have some 40 le.MG and 40 MPi.
