The Neichsprotector 77 in Bohemia and Moravia Prague, 1 April 1940 Economic Group Mr. II/1 - 6363/40 It is requested to indicate the Bieses Geschäfiszeichen unbenden subject-matter in further letters. The information that German iron industry's medium-sized enterprises in Brno are facing closure as a result of the iron quota according to the 1937 key does not correspond to the facts. Adolf and the Association of German Industrialists discussed already at the beginning of the quota system, so that the German enterprises should be compensated for the reference period which they have not yet agreed on, by allocating a so-called special political quota, which favours them in front of the Czech enterprises. The documents have already been submitted by most establishments and are currently being examined, and bridging measures have also been introduced in the most urgent cases, so there is no shortage of information.
