2 he Head of Division II Prague, 16 September 1942. -782- Goes Mr. 8/0u St a t s e k r e t e t a r e r About my business trip to Berlin at l4.ds.Mts. I would like to report that with M-Brigadeführer O h l e n a o r f I had a very in-depth debate on general economic policy issues and, in particular, on the future development of consumer associations in Bohemia and Moravia. Ohlendorf warmly welcomes the fact that the consumer associations in the Protector Council are not to be transferred to the collective work of the German Labourrent. In Prague, however, he believes that consumer associations need to be directed more strongly and will propose suitable personalities for the designated "Reichsprotektor's representative" in this field.The commissioner would be appointed to the Protectorate at regular intervals for the exercise of his supervisory function. A permanent presence in Prague does not seem necessary and would probably not be acceptable in the 4th year of the war. If the so-called Muller plan is not to be incorporated, the consumer associations should not be involved in any way for the regulation after the war
