Y Cing.: 15.MA11942 According to the enemy propaganda, a decline in output in the production of the protectorate economy cannot be observed. It is interesting to note that mining production in Ostrava has continued to increase, while mining in Kladno has experienced a certain - albeit expected - decline in production. This is due in Kladno to the fact that the miners there belong mainly to older years and, as a result of the now sçhan years of exceptional tension, can no longer be productive. The same finding is made in the rest of the Reich area with older miners. In addition, especially in these older people, the deteriorated nutritional situation, especially the lack of bacon and fat, is becoming increasingly unfavorable. X 5.a..M fo 4/6.4. MO 17.5.
