Already in the summer of 1943 the intervention of the district management of Brno has disrupted the steering measures of the Bohemian-Mährische Verband for the garden and viticulture industry. As a result, the German population of Prague and the Moravian-Ostrava workers were not involved in the supply of apricots/marilles. At my request, these difficulties were resolved by the intervention of the party liaison office. Findings of recent complaints from Moravia,-Ostrava have shown that special measures have been taken in Brno on the initiative of the local district authorities, which have significantly disrupted the dislocation of Moravia-Ostrou with vegetables. Deutsche Landzentrale has stored winter vegetables in its capacity as a dispatch distributor. The vegetables stored by dispatch distributors are always at the disposal of the relevant market association. However, since the German Landzentrale is also commissioned by the district management 4~ Brinn to supply the NSV distribution agencies established for the supply of the Germans in Brno, the district administration in Brno claimed the entire quantity of vegetables stored at the regional headquarters. When the responsible market association on 8.1.1944 ordered the Deutse Landzentrale to load 8o t of vegetables to Moravia,-Ostrau, the head of the district office, Michler, on behalf of the circle leader of the German Landzentral, forbade the implementation of this loading instruction. The influence of the district administration in Brno on the wholesale trade there is so intense that a personal intervention of my department head of nutrition and agricultural holding was necessary to ensure the implementation of the instruction of the market association. CSaguriesen are kindly asked to refrain from their own supply measures in the future and not to interfere with the measures of the market associations led by my agents. iia elder, 2./ Wv.b.Department VI German Minister of State Able Judiciary nteom doee te cm 21, 1. 1944 Y Mere dee ilce im tiirrisice oingegungen lo icrr cas ma der dnd den deid t /ny des Ciomr de bewledar in deioin irve. bacg bine ccarn tridis sigeife tind ^ 504.à4
