English Translation

hbo0e administration and economy. In the field of labour and wage policy, I have considerably strengthened German influence in the autonomous social ministry.The management of both sections of this ministry is now in the hands of Germans who are seconded by my authorities there and have a sufficient German staff.In addition, the heads of the Departments of Labour and Social Affairs at the Upper Land Councils have been appointed as directors of the autononen Arbeitsamt (autononen Verarbeitsamt) in the interests of the Reich for the purpose of streamlined management of the work assignment in the Protectorate.This means that the heavy weight of labor and wage policies has been shifted to the autonomous administration under the direction of German civil servants. tmianiy riag e yUZ
