II A 4 - 535. To the state governments (Landesnährungsamt) the Preußische Oberpräsidenten (Provincial Nutrition Offices) inform the government presidents and corresponding authorities. Subject: Feed for riding horses. With regard to the serious feed supply situation, feed can only be issued from 1 May 19942 for such riding horses, which are to be seen as particularly Sertvolle tournament horses, whose preservation is in the interest of the entire German riding sport. Older horses with best tournament performances and younger horses that are suitable to achieve success in tournament sports are eligible. The daily feed rate for these horses is not 5 kg as before, but only 4 kg. For horses that fail, substitute horses may not be used. Whereas it is necessary to select the horses still eligible for the feed allocation (tourniquet horses) by the competent Commission for the tests of warm blood horses; whereas the Commission's confirmation that a horse is a particularly valuable horse for competition is the basis for the further feed allocation; The certificate must show the name, age, colour, gender and owner of the horse. Until 1 April 1962, the Lanles and Provincial Food Offices have to provide me with a list of the horses selected by the commissions for inspection. I assume that on average the number of horses eligible for the veteran supply does not exceed 6° - 8 % of the riding horses so far provided.
