Foreword: Foreword Findbuch HHS I: Behörden- und Bestandsgeschichtliche Einleitung History of the Registraturbilders: The Handelshochschule Berlin is a foundation of the elders of the Berlin merchant community. It was opened in October 1906 and initially had the following tasks: ""To provide young merchants with in-depth general and commercial education, taking constant account of practical circumstances; "to give prospective commercial school teachers the opportunity to acquire the necessary theoretical and practical specialist training; "to provide judicial, administrative, consular and chamber of commerce officials, etc., with the opportunity to work in the field of business administration. (1) The training should not, however, serve exclusively practical purposes, but the scientific character of the new institution should occupy an important place in the effectiveness of the new university. This condition had also been imposed by the Ministers for Trade and Commerce and for Spiritual, Teaching and Medical Matters in the approval of the Order of 27.12.1903, whereby special reference was made to "keeping the Handelshochschule at the same level as the other Berlin universities"(2) At the time of the opening, the teaching staff consisted of 8 lecturers in the main office 30 lecturers in the secondary office 13 private lecturers 4 assistants Students, guest students and listeners were admitted to study. The admission requirements stipulated that, in addition to merchants entitled to "one-year voluntary service" and having completed their apprenticeship, high school graduates and teachers could also be admitted to the 2nd teacher training examination. The curriculum provided for the following subjects: Economics: banking, stock exchange, monetary and credit affairs, cooperatives, transportation, trade, commerce, agricultural, colonial and social policy, statistics, finance, insurance, commercial history, economic geography Legal studies: civil law, commercial law, commercial law, bill of exchange and maritime law, insurance law, social legislation, industrial property law, prosecution (international transport), state, administrative and international law, criminal law Commodities science:Physics, Chemistry, Mechanical Technology, Chemical Technology, Industrial Health Commercial Engineering: Accounting, Commercial Accounting, Correspondence Methodology of Commercial Education Languages: English, French, Spanish, Italian, Russian, German (for foreigners) General Humanities: History, History of Art, History of Literature, Philosophy The duration of the studies was 2 years. After completing their studies, students had the opportunity to take both an examination for practical business people and a diploma examination. (3) In the years 1912, 1920, 1924, 1927 and 1937, the examination regulations were amended several times in accordance with the changed conditions and requirements for graduates of the Handelshochschule or were completely revised. Apart from the diploma examination, the commercial teacher examination could also be taken. (4) In addition, diploma commercial teachers had the opportunity to take an additional examination in the writing subjects and office economics. (5) The examination regulations from 1937, which applied until 1945, also provided for the possibility of a diploma examination as an economist, which, however, could only be taken since 1944 at the Berlin School of Economics. (6) The constitution of the Handelshochschule of 15.11.1923 made admission to studies dependent on the acquisition of a school leaving certificate and set the duration of studies at 4 years. Since 1928, it had been possible to take the special matriculation examination in order to obtain a university entrance qualification, which was prepared by so-called "private matriculation examination courses". The number of students in the years 1906-1933 rose from 213 in the winter semester 1906/1907 to 1184 in the winter semester 1919/20, 1234 in the winter semester 1928/29 and reached the highest number of 1260 in the summer semester 1932. In the years 1933-1945 the number of students including guest students and visitors ranged between 500 and 1700. (7) The first official course catalogue of the summer semester 1907 announced lectures in the following fields of knowledge: Economics Economics Law Economic Geography and Economic History Pure and Applied Natural Sciences, Commodities Technology Languages Theory and Practice of Commercial Education General Scientific Education Skills (short writing) It should be particularly emphasized that lectures on colonial politics and colonial economics occupied a large space within economics. (8) Apart from some changes and additions, the structure of the curriculum remained constant. In addition, the curriculum was included in the following years: Insurance Cooperative Studies Physics and Chemistry were reported as separate courses. Lectures on "Russian economic conditions" and "Eastern Europe" were also announced in the SS 1914. In the winter semester of 1917/18 the lecturer Dr. lic. Rohrbach said in his lecture "German World Politics" that he still had to talk about the "struggle for the rise of the Germans to a world people". After the November Revolution, which, according to the report of the then rector, Prof. Leitner, was a consequence of "the violent end of the world war by the superiority of matter and the internal enemies of the people" (10), many lectures dealt with economic and general political problems of the post-war period. (So e.g. "Development of the political parties a Germany - L. Bergsträsser - Lessons of the World War - Wegener -) Germany's geographical, political and economic world position (The encirclement as a result of our geographical disadvantages - Liberation from the predicament - Rohrbach-) (11) Lectures for the Berlin teaching staff in which the following topics were dealt with were new: "The Foundations of Socialism" (The Doctrine of Class Struggle, Socialist Value Doctrine, Socialism of Action, socialist theories of state) "The economic theories and their Connection with the intellectual movement of modern times" (12) As of SS 1923, the term "business administration" was introduced instead of "private economics". The structure of the syllabus and curriculum remained essentially the same until 1935. In May 1935, the Reich Minister for Science, Education and Popular Education issued "Guidelines for the Study of Economics", which corresponded entirely to the aims of fascist university policy: Orientation of the teaching staff and students towards the unscientific theories of National Socialism that are hostile to the people and people. Thus the following lecture topics appeared in the lecture timetables of the years 1935/36-1945: "Germanistic Prehistory" "People, especially People Becoming a People as the Sense of the National Revolution "The German Abroad and its Schools" "People and Race" "States", especially Workers and Entrepreneurs for the Sociology of the Operating Community) "State", especially Economy and Space "National Economy", especially Daily Questions of National Socialist Economic Policy, Military Science, Military Science "Business Administration", especially Human Management in Companies, Foreign Trade Businesses under the Influence of the New Plan, Warfare and Transport Routes, The establishment of the Handelshochschule is part of the period of the development of capitalism, free competition with imperialism, and the establishment of the Handelshochschule is part of the period of the development of capitalism. German imperialism, which was neglected in the division of the world between the imperialist great powers, also put the educational institutions at the service of its economic expansion policy. The cadres needed to cope with these tasks had to have a higher level of training than the business people trained at technical colleges. In this sense, the then rector of the Handelshochschule, Prof. Leitner, in a memorandum written in December 1919 to obtain the right to award doctorates, also spoke of the fact that "the development of Germany from an agricultural state to an industrial state, the emergence of large and giant industrial enterprises, the expansion of national trade to international and world trade, finally the concentration and expansion in the German banking industry towards the end of the last century had necessitated the establishment of special technical colleges for merchants and higher commercial officials. (13) Thus the commercial college objectively served to strengthen and consolidate the imperialist system. The connection with commercial, industrial and bank capital was particularly close because the Handelshochschule had been part of the business division of the Berlin Chamber of Industry and Commerce since July 1920. Franz von Mendelssohn: Banker, former President of the Berlin Chamber of Industry and Commerce Philipp Vielmetter: General Director of Knorr-Bremse AG, Vice President of the Berlin Chamber of Industry and Commerce, Treasurer of the Gesellschaft der Freunde der Handelshochschule Karl Gelpcke: Director of Hypothekenbank Hamburg, President of the Berlin Chamber of Industry and Commerce Friedrich Reinhart: Prussian State Councillor, President of the Berlin Chamber of Construction Economics, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Commerz- und Privatbank AG The administration of the Handelshochschule was initially carried out by the eldest members of the Berlin business community. The so-called "Grand Council of the College of Commerce", to which the members belonged, existed as an advisory body: "The President of the College of Elders, two representatives of the State Government, the Rector of the Handelshochschule, one representative of the Berlin University, one representative of the Technische Hochschule Berlin, six delegates of the College of Elders, two members of the Finance Commission, three lecturers employed in the main office and to be elected by the teaching staff, a member of the Berlin City Council, a member of the Berlin City Assembly, a member of the Chamber of Commerce, the General Counsel of the School of Management, five other outstanding personalities appointed by the elders of the commercial team who have confirmed their interest in the School of Management." (15) The Rector of the College of Commerce was elected for 3 years, later for 2 years by the College of Lecturers and had to be confirmed by the Minister of Commerce and Industry, who was entrusted with the supervision of the school by the Prussian State Government. The supervision was initially carried out by a representative in the Grand Council, later by a so-called "State Commissioner". There were 7 institutes and seminars when the university was founded. From winter term 1918/19 the 1st syndic of the corporation was appointed as curator of the university. With effect from 1.7.1920, the corporation of the merchants was incorporated into the Berlin Chamber of Industry and Commerce and thus the commercial college was subordinated to the Berlin Chamber of Industry and Commerce. In addition to the "Grand Council", a college of commerce administration commission was formed, the majority of which consisted of representatives of commercial, industrial and bank capital. The Administrative Commission had the task of taking care of the administrative affairs of the university. The university counted at that time 8 Ordinarien 33 lecturers in the Nebenamt 1 Privatdozenten 37 lecturers and 7 Lektors it existed at that time now 14 institutes and seminars. The constitution of the commercial college of 22.10.1923, which replaced the order of 21.12.1903, reorganised the constitutional status of the college. (16) The names of the members of the teaching staff have been brought into line with those of the university. So there were only professors, lecturers, private lecturers, assistant lecturers and lecturers at the university. As a representative of the teaching staff, the "Dozentenkollegium" was created, to which only the professors belonged with seat and vote, and 2 representatives of the remaining teaching staff. Without voting rights 2 further members were admitted. The teaching staff had the task of monitoring the completeness of the teaching, submitting proposals for appointments and deciding on the admission of private lecturers. In addition, the board of lecturers elected the rector, whose term of office was 2 years. The professors were appointed by the Chamber of Commerce and Industry subject to confirmation by the Ministers of Commerce and Industry and Science, Arts and Popular Education. The so-called State Treaty, which was concluded between the Minister for Trade and Commerce and the President of the Chamber of Industry and Commerce on 16.7.1926, granted the Handelshochschule Berlin the rights of a university according to the provisions of the General Land Law. In this respect, the Handelshochschule was placed on an equal footing with the other universities and colleges. (17) The right to award doctorates, which has been demanded by all members of the teaching staff for years, has also been conferred on the university. (18) The right of habilitation had already been held by the Handelshochschule since 22.5.1915. (19) A board of trustees was appointed for the administration of the Handelshochschule. In addition, it was stipulated that the bodies otherwise existing at universities should also be formed, e.g. a senate which had not existed until then. The Board of Trustees consisted of the following members: the President of the Chamber of Industry and Commerce or his deputy, a second executive chairman appointed by the President after hearing the Chamber of Industry and Commerce, 7 members elected by the Chamber of Commerce, the Rector and Prorector of the School of Commerce or their deputies, and the corresponding full-time professors with an advisory vote in matters relating to individual areas of teaching. The appointment of these members took place for 3 years. In detail, the Board of Trustees had the following tasks: Decision on the purchase and sale of real property Employment of the civil servants and employees required for the administration Provision of expert opinions on the organisation of university teaching and suggestions in this respect Management of other university business, insofar as they have not been transferred to other bodies and do not relate to teaching and research State supervision was exercised by a State Commissioner appointed by the Minister for Trade and Industry. By the II. Ordinance of 29 October 1932 on the Simplification and Reduction of the Price of Administration (Pr. G.S., p. 333), the state supervision of the Handelshochschule Berlin was transferred to the then Prussian Minister of Science, Art and Popular Education, who fulfilled his duties and rights in the same manner as before. By decision of the Prussian State Ministry of 1 Nov. 1935, the Handelshochschule was given the new name "Wirtschaftshochschule Berlin". At the same time, the right to award doctorates was extended to include "Dr.rer.Pol.". The economics lessons at the University of Berlin and the former Berlin School of Economics were merged. (20) This form of organisation was maintained until 1945. In winter semester 1943/44 the teaching staff consisted of 14 full professors 1 extraordinary professor 5 honorary professors 4 lecturers 53 assistant lecturers 7 lecturers (21) There were 12 institutes and seminars. Institute of Finance Economics Seminar Insurance Science Seminar Institute of Industrial Business Administration Business Economics Seminars Legal Seminars Archive for Trade and Business Law Political Seminar Geographical Seminar Physical-Chemical Seminar Business Education Seminar British-American Seminar Outside the Association of the University, the following academic institutions were also available: 1st Berlin Institute of Higher Education for Insurance Science, which, in addition to the Business School, was also available to the University and the Technical University 2nd Institute for Office Economics 3rd Berlin Institute of Higher Education for Insurance Science, which was also available to the University and the Technical University 2nd Institute for Office Economics 3rd Institute of Business Administration, which was available to the University and the Technical University of BerlinResearch Centre for Trade at the Reichskuratorium für Wirtschaftlichkeit 4.From the very beginning, the members of the teaching staff included well-known bourgeois scholars who had trained a completely different generation of executives in business and administration, such as Professors Bernhard: (Georg) Volkswirtschaft Binz: Chemie Bonn: Economics Eltzbacher: Law Eulenburg: Economics Heilfron: Law Hellauer: Commercial Science Jastrow: Political Science Marten: Physics Mellerowicz: Business Administration Nicklisch: Business Administration Preuß: Law Schücking: Law Sombart: Political Science Tiessen: Geography Valentin: Politics Wegener: Geography During the years 1933-1945 also typical representatives of the fascist ideology and representatives of the German monopoly capital worked, like the professors Weber: Jurisprudence (today leading member of the NPD, professor in Göttingen, in the brown book of the GDR registers) Hettlage: (today professor in Mainz, state secretary, member of the high authority of the European community for coal and steel, in the brown book of the GDR registers) v. Arnim: Rector of the Technische Hochschule Berlin, SA-Gruppenführer Reithinger: Head of the Economics Department of IG-Farben, Berlin NW 7 Registratur- und Bestandsgeschichte Registraturverhältnisse: In the course of organizing and recording the holdings, it was established that the existing file units must have been kept in a central registry. There is a continuous signing of the hand-stitched files (Roman numerals I - XIX), whereby small Latin letters were used in addition to the subdivision. A registration scheme was not available, so that it was not possible to determine which criteria formed the basis for the formation of the individual groups. In the course of the office reform, the conversion to a file registration system took place early (approx. 1920). New signatures - also Roman numerals I - XVII - with subdivision (Arabic numerals), e.g. II I - were used. There are file directories from the years 1933 and 1936. Subsequently, 17 main groups had been formed, subdivided according to need with Arabic numerals. It can be seen from the remaining parts of the registry that from 1940 onwards only Arabic numerals were used to identify the file units. Registry directories could not be determined. It must be assumed that most of these files were destroyed by the effects of war. Access, completeness, cassation: The transfer of the holdings, which were located in the building of the former business school, since 1946 Faculty of Economics of the Humboldt University, took place in 2 stages. The part stored on the floor was added to the archive in 1964, the one in the cellar in 1967. In March 1970 a remainder of approx. 2 running metres was found in a cellar of the building. The collection also included about 7000 student personal files, which were stored alphabetically. With regard to the completeness of the holdings, it should be noted that, following a comparison with the list of files from 1936 on the standing file registry of 635 files established since 1920, only 170 files remain. However, it should be noted that the files formed after 1 October 1936 do not appear in the register, so that an exact determination is not possible. There are also no directories of the previous files kept since 1906. The student personnel files seem to have been almost completely handed down. It is assumed that a large proportion of the files were destroyed as a result of the building damage caused by an air raid in February 1945. With the takeover of the files of the business school, at the same time about 200 files of the board of trustees of the business school were added to the archive, which were handed over to the city archive of Greater Berlin for reasons of responsibility. The only thing that was collected for the purpose of researching the history of the business school was completely worthless file units, such as vouchers, lists, announcements and manuscripts of the lecture timetables, which can only be regarded as preparation material for the printed lecture timetables. Archival processing: The traditional registry order could not be used as a basis for organizing the holdings. The majority of the file titles have also been reformulated. 12 main groups with the corresponding subgroups were formed and the file units were classified accordingly. 1.Constitution and management of the university 2.Teaching and training 3.Award of academic degrees 4.Teaching staff 5.Relations with domestic and foreign universities, colleges and other scientific institutions 6.Public activities of the commercial college (business school) 7.Associations and associations 8.Disciplinary matters 9.Social support for students 10.Libraries 11.Household and finance 12.Assets of the business school A subject and name register facilitate the user's work on the holdings. The order and the distortion of the inventory took place in the years 1968 - 1970 by the undersigned.

The history of the Franck company ranges from the foundation of the chicory factory in Vaihingen in 1828 to the transition to Nestlé Deutschland AG, Frankfurt in 1987. A description of the company history was omitted in favour of a chronicle in tabular form. The files recorded in this finding aid book originate from a file delivery from 1978, which took place on the occasion of the firmation with Nestlé Gruppe Deutschland GmbH, Frankfurt (since 1987 Nestlé Gruppe Deutschland AG) and the transfer of the management of Unifranck Lebensmittelwerke GmbH to Munich. The printed company chronicles were taken from the previously unrecorded library records in the Ludwigsburg State Archives, which were also handed over in 1978, to complete the unprinted company chronicles of inventory PL 5. The structure of the records was based on the organisational plan of the Heinrich Franck Sons Central Administration of 1919 (PL 5 Bü. 145) and the existing old signatures. The registry order to be derived from the organizational plan and the old signatures, which was arranged according to the type of products manufactured, the central connection to Ludwigsburg or Berlin and the location of the branch, was reduced to the location and departmental responsibility according to the organizational plan of 1919 due to the incomplete nature of the archive records (some registry signatures were missing completely) and easier access. The products manufactured were not taken into account as distinguishing features. Little can be said about the history of the company archive. The central offices in Ludwigsburg and Berlin had the main significance. In 1935 the trademarks were transferred "for security reasons" from the registries in Ludwigsburg and Linz to Berlin (StAL PL 5 Bü. 145). From 1943 to 1947, a large-scale transfer of files and advertising material to Ludwigsburg took place (StAL PL 5 Bü. 1). To what extent and according to which criteria cassations were carried out until the files were delivered to the Ludwigsburg State Archives in 1978/1981 must remain open. The fact that they took place can be concluded from the incomplete registry signatures. Dr. Ruth Kappel was responsible for organising and indexing the finds as part of her practical training as a business archivist from October to December 1991. Dr. Günter Cordes took over the indexing and completion of the finding aid in 1992. The inventory was packaged by Bruno Wagner. The data acquisition was done by Hildegard Aufderklamm.Ludwigsburg, January 1992Ruth Kappel Company chronicle: 1827First attempts at chicory coffee production by Johann Franck, owner of a confectionery and speciality shop in Vaihingen/Enz1828Establishment of the chicory factory in Vaihingen/Enz by Johann Heinrich FranckEstablishment of chain stores for the production of intermediate products:- 1832 Darre in Steinbach (today Wernau, district of Esslingen)- 1844 Darre in Großgartach (today Leingarten, district of Heilbronn)- 1851 Darre with roasting plant and mill in the Rieter valley near Enzweihingen (today Vaihingen, district of Ludwigsburg)- 1855 Darre in Meimsheim (today Brackenheim, district of Heilbronn)Later foundations with freight railway connection:- 1855 Darre in Bretten (Baden)- 1880 Darre in Eppingen (Baden)- 1880 Darre in Marbach/Neckar1867 Death of company founder Johann Heinrich Franck1868 Relocation from Vaihingen to Ludwigsburg (direct railway connection)1871 Firmation to Heinrich Franck Söhne OHG, LudwigsburgFoundation of branches:- 1879 Linz/Donau- 1883 Komotau (today CR)- 1883 Milan 1883 Basel- 1887 Bucharest H.

History of the inventor: Under the chairmanship of the factory owner and war-disabled reserve officer Franz Seldte, the Stahlhelm was founded in Magdeburg on 25 December 1918. In particular, former soldiers and officers of the Infantry Regiment 66 quartered in Magdeburg, to which Franz Seldte also belonged, were among the first members. The primary purpose was to "maintain peace and order," i.e., to protect oneself and the police against revolutionary unrest, to "foster comradeship founded in the field," to represent the interests of former front-line soldiers and their relatives (1), and to promote entry into the Free Corps. Almost a year after its foundation, on 21 September 1919, the Stahlhelm with its already existing local groups and other similar groups constituted itself as the Reichsbund der Frontsoldaten (Reich League of Front Soldiers). Magdeburg (2) initially became the administrative centre. The 1st Reichsfrontsoldatentag took place there on 14 March 1920, in the course of which Franz Seldte was elected the 1st Federal Leader of the steel helmet and replaced the previous chairman Dr. Gustav Bünger (3). Seldte maintained this position until the dissolution of the Confederation in 1935. In the following two years, the Federation succeeded in gradually expanding its organization beyond Central Germany, including in Berlin, Brandenburg, Lower Saxony, Pomerania, Silesia and Westphalia. If the steel helmet confessed itself to the new republican form of government when it was founded and as standing above the parties, this gradually changed. He approached the political right, including the German National People's Party (DNVP), and oriented himself "German-racial". The local group in Halle under its leader, the DNVP functionary Kurt Werner, played a major role in this (4). This development was temporarily halted by the prohibition of the steel helmet in Prussia on 2 July 1922, which was effective until 26 January 1923, following the assassination attempt on Reich Foreign Minister Walther Rathenau. In the turbulent year 1923, which was characterized by domestic political conflicts, occupation of the Ruhr, inflation, famine, separatist and communist uprisings and the climax of which was the Hitler-Ludendorff Putsch, which took place in Munich on November 8-9, the anti-democratic orientation of the steel helmet took on more and more form. Again the radical part of the alliance, the Gau Halle, in particular its new leader Theodor Duesterberg, was leading the way (5). If a national dictatorship was now advocated for the stabilization of conditions, coup d'état - at least in its official announcements - was rejected (6). On 9 March 1924 Theodor Duesterberg was appointed the 2nd Federal Leader alongside Franz Seldte. In the official presentation as a milestone in the history of steel helmets, in reality the mutual relationship was marked by repeated differences. With the increasing establishment of parliamentary democracy in the German Reich, the top management of the Stahlhelm was now thinking about the future. The Front Fighters Association wanted to be more than just a pure veteran association. He wanted to "implant" the propagated "spirit of front comradeship" to the entire German people (7). Under the motto "Über die Organisation zur Macht" (8), since the spring of 1924 its activities were extended to include young people (Jungstahlhelm and Scharnhorst) and the generation of over 24-year-olds (Stahlhelm-Landsturm, later Ringstahlhelm) who had no longer been able to participate in the First World War. Here above all the pre-military training stood in the foreground, the steel helmet understood itself nevertheless also as reservoir of the Reichswehr. In 1929, the steel helmet student association "Langemarck" was founded, which brought together the student youth. The steady growth of the covenant exerted an attraction on other federations, which led to them joining the steel helmet (9). In addition to the organizational expansion, the steel helmet also attempted to influence the politics of the Weimar Republic in other ways, albeit with strict emphasis on its "non-partisanship". To achieve this goal, in addition to mass events, propaganda campaigns and appeals to the patriotic sense of duty, personalities with political influence close to the steel helmet also served. The Reich President of Hindenburg was appointed honorary member. The transformation from an original self-protection organization to a political defense organization took on concrete forms. In the mid-twenties, however, it soon became clear that the Frontkämpferbund was often at odds with its principle of "standing above the parties" and its claim to political leadership. One had to leave the extra-parliamentary level in order to gain weight in politics. "Into the state" was now the slogan (10). Although they avoided founding their own party, they formed alliances with others, such as the DVP and the German nationalists, to whom close personal ties had always existed. In the Reich and Prussian state elections of 1928, for example, Stahlhelm members were placed on DNVP lists (11). However, these remained fruitless attempts, which only led to conflicts, which finally prompted the federal leadership to conduct politics on its own initiative (12). First the Federation specified its antirepublican oriented program in the first and second "Steel Helmet Embassies" as well as the "Fürstenwalder Hassbotschaft" (13). According to its self-image, the Federation saw itself as the spearhead of a freedom movement whose goals were "the external and internal liberation of Germany" (14). At the Front Soldier Days in Berlin and Hamburg in 1927 and 1928, as well as at several other propaganda demonstrations, the steel helmet publicly displayed its aversion to the Republic. However, a series of unfortunate decisions, including the 1928 referendum to amend the constitution and the 1929 referendum against the Young Plan, combined with disagreements in federal leadership and political inexperience, showed that the activities of the Stahlhelm in this area were limited. Subsequently, disputes arose, especially with the growing National Socialists, over who should take the lead in the right-wing camp. During the Reichstag elections in September 1930, it became clear that the NSDAP played the leading role. Increasingly, members of the steel helmet, in part even entire local groups, joined this party and the organizations belonging to it (above all SA and SS). The meeting of the leading right-wing parties and associations held in Bad Harzburg in October 1931 and the merger to form the "Harzburger Front" were unable to bridge the existing gap. In the 1932 Reich presidential elections, the competition between the NSDAP and the steel helmet again came to light, with both of their own candidates entering the race: Adolf Hitler stood for the National Socialists, Theodor Duesterberg for the front soldiers (15). After the disastrous outcome of the Reich presidential elections for the Federation, disillusionment spread. The steel helmet put its political ambitions on ice and now turned its attention again increasingly to military sports activities and voluntary work, which was regarded as a substitute for compulsory military service (16). The assumption of political power by the NSDAP in January 1933 was welcomed despite all differences. Among other things, several steel helmets participated in the auxiliary police founded by Hermann Göring in February of the same year together with SA and SS in equalization measures (17). Franz Seldte received the post of Reich Labour Minister (18) in Adolf Hitler's cabinet. In June 1933 the gradual dissolution of the Frontsoldatenbund began. The Scharnhorst-Bund for youths up to the age of 18 was integrated into the Hitler Youth, while the over-18 to 35-year-olds were subordinated to the SA as "Wehrstahlhelm". As a result of the enormous increase in members, a reorganisation of the SA was ordered at the end of 1933. In the course of this now also the core steel helmet (members over 35 years) came as a SA reserve under their command (19). In March 1934 it came to the reestablishment into the National Socialist German Frontkämpferbund (steel helmet). On 7 November 1935 the Frontsoldatenbund was finally dissolved, after it had led only a shadowy existence since the beginning of the "Third Reich". In 1951 a new organization was founded in Cologne under the name of Stahlhelm, Bund der Frontsoldaten (Steel Helmet, Federation of Front Soldiers). In 1952 the former Field Marshal Albert Kesselring was elected as its federal leader. Notes (1) See Graff, Siegmund: Foundation and Development of the Federal Government, in: Der Stahlhelm.

Inventory Description: History of the Inventory With the dissolution of the steel helmet in 1935, the files of the Federal Government reached the Reichsarchiv in Potsdam. The stock was removed around 1944/45 and thus escaped destruction - the Reichsarchiv was bombed on 14 April 1945. The files remained in Potsdam after the Second World War, now in the area of the Soviet occupation zone, and were taken over by the German Central Archive (DZA; later: Central State Archive of the GDR), which was founded there in 1946. They were archived there under the inventory signature 61 Sta 1. In the course of the reunification of the German states in 1990, the documents finally reached the Federal Archives through the integration of the Central State Archives of the GDR. To date, the Federal Archives themselves had preserved only minor remains of the steel helmet under the signature R 72, which had been acquired from private sources (see Gerhard Granier: Das Bundesarchiv und seine Bestände, 3. Aufl., Boppard 1977, p. 437). Archival evaluation and processing The first verifiable processing of the disordered holdings kept in the German Central Archives took place in the years 1957-1960. The work was made more difficult by the fact that the archives did not have any organisational documents or file directories of the steel helmet. In 1967, through the mediation of V.R. Berghahn (author of the book "Der Stahlhelm Bund der Frontsoldaten 1918-1935, Düsseldorf 1966"), the DZA was able to acquire a copy of a list of contributions from the Stahlhelm-Bundesamt from 1935. This list originally came from the possession of Dr. Heinz Brauweiler, last head of the political department of the Stahlhelm-Bundesamt, and was intended to list all files to be handed over to the Reichsarchiv. With the help of this directory, the indexing according to the principles of order and indexing for the state archives of the GDR was completed in 1970. A revision in 1967 of the files of the classification groups 1 (correspondence of the Federal Government), 2 (printed publications) and 4 (pictures) with the help of the above-mentioned list of duties produced the following picture: Classification groups 1: Available: 193 volumes Missing: 28 volumes = approx. 12 classification groups 2: Available: 117 volumes Missing: 55 volumes = approx. 47Classification groups 4: Available: 70 volumes Missing: 33 volumes = approx. 32The particularly high losses in groups 2 and 4 in particular can be explained by a presumably incomplete transfer to the Reich Archives as well as losses during the war-related relocation of the Reich Archives' holdings. In 2003 the steel helmet was re-signed from its former location in the Koblenz office of the Federal Archives and merged with the old Potsdam part under the stock signature R 72. Subsequently, the data from the finding aids were converted into electronic form and transferred to the Basys database. Since the indexing data from the finding aids did not comply with the modern indexing guidelines of the Federal Archives, a revision of the data was necessary, which was carried out in the years 2007-2011. The main focus was on the creation of volume and series sequences, streamlining of the contained notes by highlighting the essential content, review and adjustment, partial modification of the classification. From the collection "NS-Archive of the Ministry for State Security of the GDR" files of the provenance steel helmet were extracted and integrated into the stock R 72. Classification groups 1-3 were particularly affected by this work. Characterization of the contents: The collection provides a good insight into the organizational development of the steel helmet and its affiliated associations, especially at the level of the federal leadership and the regional associations or Gaue, as well as into its activities of various kinds, especially from the beginning of the twenties until its dissolution in 1935. The files of the classification groups 1 and 3 represent the largest part of the transmission of the steel helmet. While in classification group 1 the correspondence of the federal leadership with the regional steel helmet associations as well as other associations, organisations and private persons on the one hand, and on the other hand the files on the Front Soldier Days form the focus of content, in group 3 primarily domestic and foreign policy questions as well as events during the Weimar Republic or at the beginning of the Third Reich are documented. Personal documents are only available on a larger scale to the extent that they concern higher-ranking members of the steel helmet or persons from contemporary history or public life. Membership lists or local group passes are only part of the stock in extremely small quantities.

History of the Inventory Designer: 1872 Establishment of the Imperial Statistical Office by the Imperial Chancellor with the issue of a business instruction by the Imperial Chancellor, first subordinated to the Imperial Chancellery, since 1879 to the Imperial Office of the Interior and since 1918 with simultaneous renaming into the Imperial Statistical Office to the Imperial Ministry of Economics, 1934 Merger with the Prussian Statistical Office The task of the Office was the collection of material for Imperial Statistics, its technical and scientific examination, processing and publication, expert reporting on statistical issues. Inventory description: Inventory history Due to the effects of war and the collapse of the German Reich, the records of the Reich Statistical Office suffered heavy losses. At the Berlin headquarters in the Neue Königstraße, parts of the statistical material were destroyed during bomb attacks in May 1945. During the demolition of the building in 1945, the central registry was completely destroyed and approximately 10 of the 200,000 volumes of the library were lost. In the years 1943/44 several departments or departments with their written material had been moved to alternative locations. Much of the material that remained in the territories later occupied by Soviet troops was destroyed, while others were sent to the then Central State Archive in Potsdam. In April, the Dargun and Weimar branches were able to bring important material to Schwerin, from where the staff of the Reich Statistical Office there were able to flee to Hamburg at the end of April with parts of the documents in Schwerin. In Schwerin the original material of industrial production statistics and the mass of price statistics documents fell into Russian hands. The parts of the tax statistics that had been moved to Wernigerode were transported to Derenburg in Hesse before the retreat of the American troops. The stocks brought to Würzburg suffered losses due to bomb damage; the remaining documents were preserved. After 1945, the stock that had been relocated to the western occupation zones and the fragments of the traditions rescued from the Soviet occupation zone were concentrated in three places: 1. in the British occupation zone in the Statistical Office in Hamburg and Minden 2. and in the American occupation zone in the Ministerial Collecting Center in Fürstenhagen near Kassel; from there larger parts were brought to the USA 3. in the French occupation zone in the Office for Statistics and Economic Development in Baden-Baden. Essentially, the documents that fell into the hands of the Western occupying powers at the time were sent to the Federal Archives via the American Document Center in Berlin, the Federal Statistical Office or the USA. Archival evaluation and processing The successive transfer of parts of the collection from the Reich Statistical Office to the Federal Archives has led to a gradual recording of the holdings. The documents on the excise tax statistics, which came to the Federal Archives in 1952 with written documents from other American departments, were indexed in a finding aid book. The material returned from Alexandria in 1958 was provisionally developed in 1959. After a return of the files from the Berlin Document Center in 1962 and further splinter deliveries, a provisional completion of the indexing could be achieved in 1968. All the documents of the Statistical Office of the Reich that had entered the Federal Archives were indexed by a index of finds, whereby parts of the material recorded in the index of consumption statistics were re-signed. The publications of the Statistisches Reichsamt available in the Budnesarchiv at that time were recorded in a second index. Later, the Federal Statistical Office, in particular, was able to adopt further documents from agricultural statistics, industrial production statistics and the Reich Office for Defense Economic Planning and social statistics. Further exhibitor provenances were incorporated from the traditions of the Reichsnährstand and the Reichsstelle für Raumordnung which had been passed on to the Federal Archives. In addition, the Imperial War Museum in London handed over to the Federal Archives some relevant documents of small volume. In the winter of 1975, these additions were also incorporated into the inventory.
