Re: New film factory Landsberg/Warthe
From your
repeated verbal statements, particularly during the conference of 9 September
1938 in my Ministry, about the purposes and aims you have for the construction
of a new film factory, I have gathered that the construction of this plant is
to be carried out for the following reasons:
1. In order to enable the
Luftwaffe to cover its requirements of aerial film in accordance with the
demands of the Reich Air Ministry, this film is to be produced at another I.G.
Farbenindustrie plant apart from the film factory Wolfen.
2. The
increased demand for equipment, which is necessitated by the introduction of
color film production, is to be fulfilled without decreasing the present amount
of business in the field of regular black and white film, particularly in
foreign markets.
3. The labor situation in Wolfen is to be relieved in
favor of the other plants there which have been greatly expanded in the
interests of the Four Year Plan, particularly those producing rayon staple; and
this is to be done by moving the film production, which requires a great deal
of manual labor, to Landsberg/ Warthe, where settlements are needed for
political reasons |
