Smuggling began at the very moment that the Jewish area of residence
was established; its inhabitants were forced to live on 180 grams of
bread a day, 220 grams of sugar a month, 1 kg. of jam and 1 kg. of
honey, etc. It was calculated that the officially supplied rations did not
cover even 10 percent of the normal requirements. If one had wanted
really to restrict oneself to the official rations then the entire population
of the ghetto would have had to die of hunger in a very short time.... The
German authorities did everything to seal off the ghetto hermetically and
not to allow in a single gram of food. A wall was put up around the
ghetto on all sides that did not leave a single millimeter of open space....
They fixed barbed wire and broken glass to the top of the wall.
