3. The remarks made by General .zudenko show clearly that the
,;:a in yarlshorut has been instructed by ;oscow to strive '
for quality rather than quantity production in wire weaving
(10,C00 mesh per square coati:Later, maXimun warp thread to-
lerance 190 microns, wirmdiameter 0.038 to 0.042 n) FOr
this reason control agencies and laboratories will be estab-
lished in all plants to supervise rigidly production accord-
ing to the prescribed standards. The 4eiss rim in Jena
vas ordered to develop appropriate test instruilents (micro-.
scoPe-oduler-micrometer) and to supply, then to the plants.
The fl. is also ready to renovate completely machinery
(looms, etc) in the plants and to procure immediately,
throush the assistance of General Audenko, all those needed
Items which can only be purchased in the ::?est. All these
measures clearly indicate :joscowas keen interest in these
?coviet Lone deliveries of nickel wire weavings.
