Wain for the year 1939, recently published, stated that the output of the engine works was 145,760 h.p., against some 220,000 h.p. in 1938, In addition to marine diesel engines supplied for ships built in the firm's own yard, 20 engines of 100,000 h.p, were delivered for ships built in other yards, The report also stated that about 71 per cent. of the total output in 1939 was work for export, and this represented over one-eighth of the country's total industrial exports. The orders invoiced during the year totalled over 70 million kroner, B. & W. diesel engines are also built at Elsinote, and Danish engineering works as a whole have a high reputation for the quality of their products, It is to be expected that the Germans will lose no time in utilizing the technical skill of the Danes, who, like the Czechs, must work in' order to live, even though they may hate their masters, and who will no doubt find that failure to do as they are ordered will lead to the concentration camp or worse—if worse there be.
