needed tradesmen who were in many instances indispensable even in the interests

Scooping off the agricultural surplus in the Ukraine for the purpose of feeding the Reich is, therefore, only feasible if traffic in the interior of the Ukraine is diminished to a minimum. The attempt will be made to achieve this — 1. by annihilation of superfluous eaters (Jews, population of the Ukrainian big cities, which like Kiev do not receive any supplies at all); 2. by extreme reduction of the rations allocated to the Ukrainians in the remaining cities; 3. by decrease of the food of the farming population. |
