44 f h i. /7/2.4t I The consolidation of German ethnicity within the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia takes place in the territory of land and settlement by the recovery of former German folk soil and by the reorganization and purification of the German rural communities, whereby in particular the basis of life for the blood-likely valuable families of peasant and non-farmer folk is secured in the long term.

The economic supervision of these holdings and properties, their management and economic improvement is in the hands of the owners and coercive administrators appointed and supervised by the Land Office.
