at an angle of 45°. The Schreidig soil samples are ready for
dispatch. The connecting spur line is to be laid on road A; it has reached the
factory site in the East.
Many more foundation plans might be required
for the construction site in order that the progress of construction work might
be accelerated. Owing to existing conditions, the number of inmates employed on
this work cannot be increased. The erection of fences around the plant has been
begun; its completion is, however, a prerequisite for the employment of
additional inmates. The inmates working for the Schulz company are only used
6½ hours. They arrive at the construction site too late and depart too
early. Guarding them during foggy weather presents difficulties. On an average,
2 cubic meters of ground per man per day are moved. Equipment is not used to
best advantage. |

Ground Plan
Plans are drafted by Faust for building
materials, warehouse, carpentry workshops, depot for railroad equipment, and
whitewash shop Ludwigshafen will deal with these items.
Cantonment
The following solutions are recommended:
1. The apprentices’ camp is to be established to the west of the
works’ boundary.
2. Besides the settlement to accommodate 5,000
men, which is under construction, another carne to house 5,000 men is to be set
up to the west of the works’ boundary, between the works and the future
standby settlement to the east of the highway.
3. Another camp to
accommodate 5,000 men will be established between the standby settlement and
the future southeastern boundary of the town of Auschwitz, to the south of the
Auschwitz-Zator road.
4. The bachelors’ camp will be set up to the
north of this road. (The plans for this camp were discussed with Faust and
Anders on 10 October at the site. Anders will continue to work on the
project.) |

Housing facilities
Anders is to submit to Berlin
final plans and, for purposes of comparison, the first draft showing the more
pleasant and spacious design.
The Village of Babitz
Since there still is a number of serviceable houses in Babitz, an
agreement should be concluded with the concentration camp authorities whereby
the houses which can still be used are, for the time being to be neither
demolished nor blown up, but made into habitable apartments. |
