Emil Lederer · 1920
This recorded commission speaking turn consists of a single sentence. Lederer identifies the extent of possible oversight as the important issue:
Lederer: Wichtig ist, wieweit man das kontrollieren kann.
English translation: Lederer: What matters is the extent to which that can be monitored.
His intervention makes the feasibility of monitoring a criterion for assessing the matter under discussion. The pronoun “das” leaves its object unspecified; the extract supplies neither the preceding proposal nor a subsequent explanation. Its significance therefore lies in this practical question, not in a developed position on coal-mining policy.
