Assuming that the sugar surplus of the protectorate will move in a size S Co C C t and 60,000 t of export), from Berlin to around 130,000 t, the question of a reduction in fat ration in the protectorates was discussed at the same time, since it is not clear that the efforts will follow. Dr Schmidt pointed out that the reduction in ration in the protectorate would have to be about 57% if the total shortfall of 38,000 tonnes in the next marketing year was not covered, but that such a reduction was not acceptable under any circumstances, both in terms of nutrition and politics. In view of the strong armaments potential, under all circumstances, it was necessary not to carry out significantly drastic measures in the Protectorate compared to the Reich. It was envisaged that this item on the agenda would be renegotiated in about four weeks' time, as soon as it could be reasonably assessed whether the planned purchase negotiations promise or not fat : sugar success and whether the fat and feed supply situation in the Protectorate and the Reich can be better overlooked. Schmidt, as in the previous day, again made the statement that it could be expected that in the fourth year of the war, without subsidies from the Reich. In the case of meat, the reservation regarding imports from the south-east was made again. With regard to the units of the Wehrmacht, the weapons-if and the police of the order, which are housed in the Protectorate, the representatives of the REM wished that they should be largely fed from this area, in particular the order police. The exact information requested by the REM concerning the possible application of oats, hay and straw in the coming marketing year has not yet been provided. Moreover, the REm still lacks the final figures on the deliveries of the protectorate in the current marketing year for oat, hay, and straw. These are to be reported in writing to the Ministerial Councillor Dr. Dietrich.
