3a -17 ** II. Dio Preservation of valuable and irrefutable archives makes an examination of whether, in addition to the general and especially air protection measures already taken, further security of the more important archives itself is necessary. In this context, 3 groups of archivists must be distinguished according to the value and importance of ensuring: 1) Archivals, which are considered to be cultural property of the first rank and whose loss would be regarded as a serious national or loss (e.g., documents of the oldest order, written monuments of the highest historical importance such as letters of Friudrich the Great, Bismark, etc.) 2) Archivals of particular scientific significance (e,g. 3) all other archivists (e.g. modern administrative acts, especially lower bodies). Only if the archivist documents are guaranteed under (l) and then under 2) special measures to protect the stocks are to be taken. As special measures to protect the archival floors in question 1) Within the Irchiv building a) the obergton projectiles dor Magazine are possible to clear. b) The archival buildings are located in lower-lying sights, e.g. c) The compartments of the filing racks in the uunittelable vicinity of windows or thin outer walls are also possible to tan in order not to give food to the slanting incendiary fire bombs. The lowermost compartments of all files are to be tactfully lined so that accumulating löschwassor cannot pass on to the files. (d) Stocks which are to be removed first in the event of a fire shall be clearly marked in such a way that, in addition to the marking of the bötreprenaen storage sites themselves, appropriate signs shall also be placed in the individual gushossens and the entrances to the sightings which clearly ceded the way to the salvage teams. (e) In wet-active archival buildings, aind dry cellars are to be developed as a protective area for the transfer of archival and above all of the Pind- Büctor (Repertoria) to Mogilcnkedt, so that the buildings spent there remain widely usable. 1C464
