80 Dr. WILHELM VOSS PRAGIL. 24 September 1942 PRASIDENT OER AG.VORM.SKODAWERKE IN PILSEN JUNGMANNSTRASSE 29 DIRECTORATE-GENERAL PRAG Mr. SS Group Leader K.H. Fr a n k , State Secretary, Prague Czernin-Palais Dear Mr. State Secretary ! I beg you to order that the increase in food rations envisaged for the Reich will also be carried out in the Protectorate at the same time, as otherwise a decline in the performance of our armaments works will be inevitable. As I have already told you orally, the general increase in working time has already been introduced by me in our works before the public order. Apart from a number of operational and transport barriers, which are obvious, the increase in working time has been made in agreement with the follow-up, and I am pleased to note that the general increase in work time and 25% have, after all, led to an overall increase in performance of 2%. I have the effects continuously checked in the individual parts of the company in order to be able to intervene where there are difficulties. Up to now, the increase in work performance does not entirely correspond to that of women.
