English Translation

Twenty-five other misdemeanours, which had crept into the central authority, were resolved. The parliamentary system was wrong that the respective party minister, as soon as he took up his most short-lived office, wanted to perpetuate himself in the hearts of his voters and party bookkeepers, mostly not quite clean machinations. He was therefore anxious to be able to carry out, as far as possible, the small-scale work at the lowest administrative levels in his mini- sterium; for he would have risked a voter and thus perhaps his ministerial chair if, despite objective reasons, he had refused his fellow-citizens X the granting of a concession or otherwise amicableness, for example. The result of this excessive centralism was an immense bloating of the ministries and their referral to the courts, which normally has a mayor or, at most, a district head. The measures mentioned, which have not yet been fully completed, aim to ensure that the ministries of this often also legally established them on the real foot of a healthy administration of the highest intensity is handling of the inces. - 26 -
