Starting with the 42nd allotment period (19 Oct., 1942) Jews will not receive the following provisions anymore:
Meat, meat products [Fleisehwaren] eggs, wheat-products (cake, white-bread, wheat-cookies, wheat-flour, etc.), milk, fresh skimmed milk; likewise those foods which are not listed on the standard ration cards of the Reich but which are sold on local purchasing permits or through special decrees of the Food-Offices on free ration card coupons. Jewish children and youths over 10 years of age receive the bread ration of the standard consumer [Normalverbraucher]. Jewish children and youth over 6 years of age receive the fat ration of the standard consumer; no synthetic honey, no cocoa-powder, and likewise none of the additional marmelade to which children from 6-14 are entitled.

3. Ruling for Invalids, etc.
The regulations for sick people, frail persons, pregnant and nursing mothers and women in childbed do not apply in the case of Jews. The rulings of this decree also affect Jewish inmates of hospitals.

TO. Food Gift Packages for Jews.
The Food-Offices [Ernaehrungsaemter] are to deduct in full from the rations of the recipient all food gift packages sent to Jews from abroad. If it is a matter of products which are limited in purchase but are not allotted regularly (for example coffee-beans, cocoa, tea, etc.), the whole shipment—or, in case of a belated report of the arrival, that part of the package which has not yet been used—is to be disposed of in favor of large-scale consumers as for example, military hospitals and to be charged to the latter's quota of supplies.
