1. Effective 1 January 1952 the import of industrial diamonds to East Germany
ceased to be the responsibility of Deutscher?Innen- and Aussenhandel (DIA)
and was transferred to the Deutsche Warenvertriebegesellachaft (DWV). The
reason for this move was the fact that it was becoming increasingly difficult
to buy industrial diamonds through legal channels. So, in order to channel

Feinmechanik-0ptik were also transferred to the DWV..
2. The last deliveries via DIA Feinmechanik-0ptik in November and December 1951
were as follows,
