Schmelter: I should like to ask that it should only be done for manufacture and not construction.
Milch: Agreed! We must write a letter to Keitel of the OKW and a letter to Sauckel saying: Requests are to be made only directly to the Jaegerstab.

Wegener: I have a question for Schmelter: Has the question of the transfer of western Europeans been clarified?
Werner: On this subject I can say that it is especially difficult for BMW [Bavarian Motor Works], because we can only transfer Russians and concentration camp inmates, and the guards for these are mainly Belgians and French.
