69-22a 4 As a result, the waste material collector can still have little interest in scrap metals. In peacetime, the recording of waste materials has mainly covered the tyres of motor vehicles and bicycles. Due to the restriction of motor vehicle traffic and the need to repair old tyres again and again until their complete suspension, the seizure of waste rubber has reduced to a vanishingly low degree. The prospects of the survey with the continuation of the current war recording measures. The decline in the amount of waste and waste material has led to a loss of interest in the industry at its lowest level, namely the collector, because the waste material collectors do not find their way into the collection of the material. Until now the collection of the rags for the collector was the best business, which in the course of the compulsory collection offered him a compensation for the other old= and waste materials, whose profit margin is less significant. The rag business came after the introduction of the Reichskleiderkarte as well as in the future. In the waste paper business, the use of labour is not in proportion to the earnings. In this context alone, it suffices to indicate that for mixed paper= and cardboard waste, which the collector holds together in kilos, packed in sacks and delivered to the middle trade, only a remuneration of RMM 1 50 per 100 kilos is consistently paid. In the scrap business the collector did not find his livelihood, since the proceeds from this material in small quantities hardly brings a nut to the collector. In the old metal store the collector is innate by the quantity regulation of § 9 of the order No. 48 of the Reichstelle für Metalle, while the waste rubber trade no longer plays a role. The effect of this situation leads to the gradual cessation of the activities of collectors and to the transfer of their activities to another occupation after the cancellation of their trade. The fact that a single collector is no longer available to one or the other firm must also be damaged by this catastrophic development by the middle-trade and wholesale trade, so that the fear is not obvious. The need for an immediate fundamental change in the collection of data has already led many manufacturing industries to suffer from difficulties and to be forced to switch to production restrictions, and some paper manufacturing plants have already planned to close down their operations. In clear recognition of the coming development, a total conversion of the control organization is required. It must not be altered under any circumstances with the immediate Umstelluma of the recording. Because this could lead to the most serious consequences for the Wehr=wirtschaft For the duration of the war, therefore, a deviation from all existing assumptions is required, because also the party with its members and attached nervägen is not in the lane. to ensure the current Alestofferfassuna to the Daver. The party's possession can be limited to once-in-a-lifetime shock actions, but it can never extend to the ongoing inventory of waste materials. Today, the party has to deal with oversized tasks at its most original stage of work, while on the other hand, the human material required for shock collection is no longer available. The risk ratios have reduced the SA's stock to 40 %, while the SS has special tasks
