The building of research laboratories, as well as cx7sta1 and physics
laboratories, will be pushed. In 1950, the manufacture of crystals from common
salt, Rochelle salt, fluorspar any qri vtz will be undertaken, while the
physics laboratory must work on ru~se.tr%;o orders in the field of ultrasonics
and electron microscopy,
40 At the present time, the financial situat'.on is very strained. Because of
a shortage of money, investments cannot b~ carried out according to plan0
There is a shortage of astern as well as )f Western currency, although
for 1950 about 6.5 million (marks) will be needed to pay for the most urgent
purchases from the West0
