English Translation

The Oberlandrat inspector is therefore not "intermediate", so he does not disturb the regular business path, but in his district he sucks into his field of view everything, like a magnet, that would escape the top of the top in the normal bureaucratic business path and yet seem to her decisive and interesting. According to this idea, the Oberlandrat is indeed the "eye and ear and extended arm" of the top German tip, its immediate exponent outside the room, the completely unbureaucratic securing of the supremacy of leadership towards the bureaucracy, in other words the "decentralized centre point". The diagram in Appendix 2 is intended to visually illustrate this construction. 5.) Oberlandrat inspectors and central authorities. It is clear that this idea of a centralist organisation of public authorities is disturbing and damaging. This fact alone proves precisely their necessity, because in order to prevent centralist excesses, they are there for that. Berlin's central offices are also severely affected and disturbed by the establishment of the German State Ministry and strive by all means for its elimination or yet for the restriction of its independence, but no human being in the Protectorate will come to the conclusion that it is the superfluidity of the Deutsche Staatsministerium. But what is right up must be flexible down. And if some protectorate central positions feel disturbed by the existence of the Oberlandrats, then all such attitudes bear the stamp of local partiality from the outset. 6.) Crisis - 9 -
