The Head of Division V Prague, 21.Pebruar 1945. - No.V-163/45 - Minlcte-amt Fo: 21.FEB 1045 An i-Obergruppenführer State Minister F r a n k. Betr.: Smiohower Brauerei. On the basis of Jhrer's oral instructions, the head of the coal industry for Bohemia and Moravia, ß-Obersturmbannführer Dr.Eiler, had immediately been asked to check whether the production of the beer required for Prague would be made more expediently in the Smichower brewery or in the ErstePrague BürgerlicheBrauerei. According to the first report of the German Technical University and a Czech professor of the closed Czech Technical University, the production in the First Prague BürgerlicheBrauerei is more coal-based, since it is connected to the district heating plant in Prague and can use steam and electrical energy from there with the greatest possible cost-effectiveness. The opinion requested by the brewing and malting industry group is not yet available, despite its memory. It is to be received this week. 9 The lignite for use in the Smichower brewery could be used, among other things, immediately at the Bohemian-Mährische Maschinen-Fabriken-A.G. 7 15-30/45
