The
Chief Quartermaster (Chefintendant) of the Wehrmacht
Command in Ostland has lodged a complaint that armament
plants and repair workshops have been deprived of Jewish
skilled workers through their liquidation, and that they
cannot be replaced there at the present time.
I
request most emphatically that the liquidation of Jews
employed as skilled workers in armament plants and repair
workshops of the Wehrmacht who cannot be replaced at present
by local personnel be prevented.
Agreement
on which of the Jewish workers are to be considered
irreplaceable will be reached with the Gebietskommissare
(Department of Social Administration).
Provision
is to be made as quickly as possible for the training of
suitable local personnel as skilled workers.
The
same applies to Jewish workers in enterprises which do not
serve the purpose of the Wehrmacht directly, but have
important tasks to carry out within the framework of the war
economy.
