Preliminary remarks History of the authorities The Welfare Office for civil servants from the border areas was established at the same time as the Supreme Welfare Office for civil servants from the border areas (GStA PK, I. HA Rep. 206) with the law on the accommodation of indirect civil servants and teachers from the areas ceded by the Versailles Treaties (Accommodation Act) on 30 March 1920 (GS. p. 63). The law concerned indirect state officials who lost their office as a result of the assignment or occupation of Prussian parts of the country or gave up their office because, according to the circumstances, they could not be expected to continue their work under foreign rule. It also applied to the former Alsace-Lorraine indirect civil servants and teachers and to teachers who had had to give up their jobs in the foreign or colonial school service (the welfare office for teachers was responsible for this; its file stock is not handed down). The Welfare Office was the decision-making authority of the Ministry of Finance. His court of appeal was the Supreme Welfare Office. The 1920 law was amended by the law of 21 May 1935 (p. 69). The president of the Prussian Building and Finance Directorate was also chairman of the "Welfare Office"; the main fund of the Building and Finance Directorate handled its cash transactions (see also the state handbooks). Inventory Six acts of the authority were transferred to the Secret State Archives in 1941 (Accession 68/1941) and the "I. HA Rep. 180 E" collection was set up for this purpose. These files were outsourced during the war and finally reached the German Central Archive in Merseburg after the war. The other files of the authority listed here were transferred from the building of the Prussian Building and Finance Directorate Berlin (Invalidenstraße 52) to the main archive of Berlin in 1947; the "I. HA Rep. 180 C" collection was formed from them - probably in ignorance of what had already been established earlier. After the merging of the two components, they were combined to form the "I. HA Rep. 180 C Welfare Office for Civil Servants from the Border Regions". The stock is in the magazine Dahlem. The files are to be ordered as: I. HA Rep. 180 C, No. ### The files are to be quoted as: I. HA Rep. 180 C Welfare Office for officials from border areas, No. ### The last number assigned is: signed.
