English Translation

198al 9 qualified miners wanted. Occupational group 4 Stones and earths: A mirror image of active economic development offers the industry of stones and earth. Quarries, gravel works and bricks stand here in the foreground. Almost from all.Districts are reported a good employment level. Thus, Pilsen has conveyed to the brickyards of its district 40. Pardubitz 120 workers; 54 of them alone to a company in Vraclav. Apart from this, 40 workers could be assigned limestone quarries and lime kilns of the district Chrudim. The limestone and granite quarries in the Kladno area, establishments in the districts of Königgrätz, Moravian Ostrava and Klattau (Strakonitz) have a still unreliable need. Difficulty is caused once by the lack of fuel, on the other hand, as reported from Kremsier and Jitschin, the insufficient allocation of wagons for the removal of the material. The West Bohemian Kaolin factories in the district of Pilsen hired 50 people. Bad is the employment situation in the Bohemian glass industry, which has to struggle with sales difficulties, A larger number of applicants can therefore not be accommodated at the moment. 43211 Occupational group of metal industry: As was expected, the metal industry, which is fully dedicated to the war economy, has taken a generally rather favourable development, and this is also true of the iron- and iron-working metal industry.
