English Translation

1a 150 The individual applicant, apart from the cases in which, according to the decree of the Minister of Neichs- des Jnnern of 21 December 1939 — Id 66/39 — 5506 gen. — he is to be naturalized by his German name, must be mentioned in principle by the name form in the naturalisation certificate which he was entitled to lead in Jtalien. Therefore, nobility predicates are to be included in the naturalisation certificate only if the proof is provided that the applicant was entitled to lead the nobility Predicate in Jtalien. Jm Jnterefse of a simplified execution is considered to have been provided if the applicant is mentioned in official documents (military documents and other state documents) with a fine nobility predicate. In the case of the abolition of the nobility and the ban on the leadership of the aristocracy, there is no obstacle to naturalization with the nodary predicate. Insofar as an applicant without a nodular predicate has to be naturalized afterwards, he has the possibility to apply for the resumption of his old nodral predicate after the end of the war in the form of a name amendment. Academic degrees are not included in the naturalisation certificate in the interest of a simplified and accelerated completion of the naturalization procedures, since they are not directly part of the name. It would be of no practical importance, since the individual would have to submit the proof of eligibility for an academic degree separately even if it were included in the naturalisation certificate. It would therefore be an unnecessary burden on the civil procedure if such a review had to be carried out in the nationalisation procedure.

As a result of the exchange of refugees between Germany and Russia, the area belonging to the former Polish state is treated equally with the resettlement population. Equality has the effect that the resettles, their personal suitability, are granted natural food in the integrated eastern areas for the leftover basic food. Whether they also receive an asset compensation in the form of cash for other assets left behind is, for example, the subject of discussions.
