>Copy to Camp Commandants
>In the inclosed a compilation of the current arrivals and departures **in all the concentration camps** is sent to you for your information. It discloses that **out of the 136,000 arrivals about 70,000 died.** With such a high rate of death the number of the prisoners can never be brought up to the figure as has been ordered by the Reichsführer of the SS. The 1. **camp doctors must use all means at their disposal to reduce essentially this death rate in the various camps.** The best doctor in a concentration camp is not the one, who believes that he must stand out for uncalled severity, but the one who by his supervision and exchange keeps the working capacity at the various labor commands at the highest possible level. **The camp doctors must supervise more often than in the past the food of the prisoners** and, with approval of the administration, submit improvement proposals to the camp commandants. These, however, must not only appear on paper, but must be controlled regularly by the camp doctors. Furthermore, the camp doctors are to see to it that the working conditions at the various labor places are improved as much as possible. To this purpose it will be necessary that the camp doctors inspect the labor places on the ground and convince themselves about the conditions of work.
>**The SS Reichsführer has ordered that the death rate absolutely must be reduced.** For this reason the aforementioned has been ordered and a monthly report on this matter is to be submitted to the Chief of the Department D III. The first report to be submitted on 1 February 1943.
