S - 3 - Retaliation weapon, also fake food stamps were discarded. Two persons from the district of Tepl, who had attempted to redeem these food stamps, were sentenced to prison sentences in a trial before the special court at the Landgericht in Eger. According to the experiences made in the district of Mies on the Reichsbahn line Stutt-gart-Prag, the references to the provisions on crossing the border after the Protectorate, which have been repeated in the press, have not yet been successful.
