STATE SECRETARY FOR THE RUSSIAN PROTECTOR IN THINGS AND IN MORAVA, PRAGUE, inv. 425, sig. 109-4/170
English Translation
It is clear from the above that the Commission has not been able to accept the amendments tabled by the Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Consumer Protection. Certainly some people had died in the concentration camps and it could well be that the indication of the 20 persons in Moravian-Ostrava would be correct. These dead were the victims of the stain fever epidemic, which had been dragged in by Cuzsian prisoners and which would have also fallen victim to guarding teams. Other deaths also occurred due to a lack of circulation in the heavy work to be carried out by the condemned. In any case, the death cases had nothing to do with food problems, because the prisoners involved in heavy work even received a certain allowance. Therefore, it would be superfluous to deal with measures of assistance for the consumption of the persons concerned.
