English Translation
- 9 - In addition, a number of Wehrmacht residents obtain rooms themselves every day, which are outside the Wehrmascht control. The hoteliers dare not refuse such wishes. In order to make a regulation here, it had first been agreed with the commander that all Wehrmacht members who wish to stay at the hotel may only fidd up if they have obtained an allocation certificate from the commander or the station guards. However, before it came into force, this agreement was made regressive by the Wehrmacht, which feared that the "illegal" holidaymakers would be in private quarters. 3.) Steering the war-important influx. In order to be able to meet the ever-increasing need of war-relevant enterprises, the official management of the service proved to be more and more necessary. It is carried out by Iv/2 through the hospitality business group. The first measures concerned the film, which from air wars has moved a substantial part of its production to Prague. At trial, the hotel "plora" was provided as a Pilm hotel. At the same time, the room proof office Film was created, without which no film creator can receive a hotel room. The proof office is also responsible for the duration of the stay of each filmmaker. Meanwhile, the claim of the armament industry had risen sharply. Dr.Adolf first demanded 15 rooms daily, then 5o, and finally l5o! The urgency of his claim is undeniable. However, since it would mean a tremendous administrative work to ensure l5o rooms in the most different hotels every day, the Hotel Ambassador - with regard to the good experiences in the Palle Pilm - was made available to the Armamentsobmann, which is now documented by the office Dr.Adolf, similar to Beiwr Film, in self-responsibility for urgency and duration. It should be noted that neither the "pilm" nor the "Ambassador" are confiscations; free rooms are, of course, available to the general public. (For the concentration of the arms representatives in a hotel, among other things, speak, also defensive grin.)
