istration (SMV) in Austria and many Of its top Soviet officials. The information 25X1
is taken from a number of sources; the actual charts themselves, however, were
prepared by coordinating the information and arragging it in accordance with that
is known generally about Soviet economic organizations in Austria. It is believed
that the main outlines of the SW organization are correct. Furthermore, the
actual personalities and job titles do exist. The detailed layout of the organ- 25X1
