Looking first at the law against theft of state property, only in 1947, the actual famine year, did collective farmers outnumber workers among its victims. Thereafter the number of workers represented a larger share of convictions, although after the end of rationing in 1948 and the growing importance of graft and embezzlement, clerical employees became even more prominent than workers.
