STATE SECRETARY FOR THE RUSSIAN PROTECTOR IN THINGS AND IN MORAVA, PRAGUE, inv. 1793, sig. 109-5/21
English Translation
- 5 - 82 people who do not have the money to hoard supplies have been welcomed. Serpent standing has declined and the sale of goods has been directed in a quieter way. However, as a result of the shortage of goods in some articles, many shops have opened only a few hours a day. This inevitably means that the dismissal of commercial staff must be expected; in part, the dismissal has already taken place. The price increases, which are reported consistently from all areas, cause great dissatisfaction in the population and are a fertile ground for incitement and whisper propaganda, especially since wages and salaries have not increased and are not in any way at the prices of the most important food and necessities. The reports on labour performance in the Reich are therefore increasing. Various complaints have been made about the fact that the vehicles now registered for transport do not meet the requirements. Public transport is therefore used much more than usual, and the tramway in Brno is even 50% more than in the same month of last year. For the Commander: Chief of Staff: I.V. F.d.R. TMI.
