The starting point for today's meeting was the question whether the
discussion of mobilization plans now being resumed at Berlin was influenced by
the suggestions of Dr. ter Meer in the meeting of the Dyestuffs Committee of 23
November 1937.*
Irrespective of the result of the Dyestuffs Committee
meeting, mobilization plan policy has to remain unaltered. The Office of the
Technical Committee (Dr. Struss) is to raise (at the discussion of the
Leverkusen plan on 13 December in Berlin), the fundamental question as to
whether plans should be built up from below, or whether planning can be
directed into the right channels from the very beginning by the authorities,
with a few basic schedules. The suggestion of Dr. ter Meer to transfer the
plants should be considered meanwhile; the result should not influence the
present discussion.
It was agreed to take, as terms of reference for
dyestuffs, the production figures of 1936; that is, to express actual
production, deliveries, and sales in tons tel quel (commercial weight) ;
