T/3 961/40 M Prague, 31 May 1940 Minutes on the regulation of the use of forest workers in Füret Schwarzenberg's administration were published on 30 May 1940 in the district management in Budweis by Landforstmeister F r a n e k e , as head of the group Forest and Wood Industry and Hunting, Oberforstmaster I ä p l e r , the responsible consultant Kreisleiter Westen, Zentralforstdir. Dr. Duschek, Forstseessor Whistling , as secretary of the board of directors, forst officer Drexler, as commissioner of the committee of section VI of the Landw.Ministry discussed the following. I. l. Landforetmeister F r a n e k e discusses the development of the conditions and points out that in many private administrations, especially in the Prince Schwarzenberg's administration, the staff is not in line with the requirements that are now being applied to forestry; both the use of additional cover to meet the war needs of the German people and the clearing up of the snowfall woods force an intensification also in the field of the deployment of forest officials. 2. Landforetmeister P r a n c k e has examined and confirmed the finding already made by the German Kommiesar at the regional authority of Prague, Oberforstmeister Kä p l e r, that it is by no means a question of somehow housing surplus Czech beantes. In addition, it is a temporary measure, as has been expressly stated in the decree of the Land authority. 3. If the Prince Schwarzenberg's administration claims that Czech officials should be recruited, this does not correspond to the wording of the order.
