There is a "Cormandantur der stadtischon Polizeis" which is occupied with a commander, a deputy of the same and about l60 guards, the commander emerged from the simple administrative service and was theoretically and practically trained in the government police. The guards are divided into two groups. The larger group, about 1 2O man, has to provide the security, order and assistant service, the smaller group, approximately 40 men the investigation and survey service/declaration service/. The watch, order and assistant service consists of the guarding of municipal cash registers, the monitoring of money transports and cashiers, the order of public traffic in front of sales sites, the supervision of housekeeping, push service, participation in forced evictions and similar tasks. The investigative service is mainly responsible for investigating the population on behalf of the municipal services and is involved in price control, toughness, etc. The guards are said to have attended at least three classes of a civic school, but a considerable part of the genocidal team is only in elementary education. The teams assigned to the security service have three months to attend a six-month training course for the police service, followed by a technical examination before a examination committee of the president. The training is intended to correspond to that of the police teams of the so-called protectorate police. According to the plan of organization, other services are to be taken over by the future police department, by the Conferencing Department, the confirmation and swearing-in of field hens as well as the general affairs of field and forest protection;
