English Translation

105a - 2 - threshing of cereals. From 1 October 1940 a financial compensation allowance will be introduced for the German employees of the Pro- tektorate (for employees of German nationality) with effect from 1 July, according to which these employees will be equal to the employees of Reichsdeutsche. The difference between the salary paid to the protectorate offices and the new salary is covered by the Reich. It is understandable that this injunction will cause some excitement among Czech national protectorates, but it is also certain that it will be necessary to adjust to some extent the salaries of Czech national guardians, which will be achieved by releasing the surplus forces. It is likely that this order will be made primarily by the former legionaries. In order to compensate for the salaries, it will also come about because the abolition of the customs border is to be expected shortly (presumably from 1 October 1st) On 1 October there will be a reorganization of a number of higher-level offices. The offices of the upper-level councils in Melnik and Deutsch-Brod will be abolished. The political district of Horschitz comes into the area of the Oberlandrat in Königgrätz. . F.d.R.D.
