3, Until December 1953, all USIA retail stores were directly subordinate to the
Retail Trade Division in Vienna. They submitted their orders and financih:l
accountings to the Division and received deliveries directly from the Vienna.
Central Warehouse (O.R.T. Zentrallager). This procedure was found unsatis'
factory since the retail stores had no storage facilities and consequently
had to order goods in small quantities and at frequent intervals. This
placed a heavy accounting burden on the Retail Trade Division in Vienna and
also caused inefficiency in delivery.

4. On 1 December 1953, regional offices (O.R.T. Hauptlager) were set up through-
out the Soviet Zone of Austria.., Each regional office, which is comprised of a
bookkeeping section and a warehouse, submits a consolidated order to the Retail
Trade Division in Vienna for all of the 10 to 15 retail stores assigned to it.
Delivery is made to the regional offices who in turn distribute the goods
among the retail stores under their jurisdiction. The retail stores submit
their accounts to the regional office who turns in a monthly accounting to the
Retail Trade Division in Vienna.
