VV - 21 - which is already available to them or is sent to them on the basis of the provisions of this circular. The branches of the German People's List may make subsequent surveys in individual cases, in particular supplementary questionnaires. Procedures of this kind must be carried out as soon as possible in order to reach a final conclusion of these cases. (25) The Germans entered into the German People's List must be shown on this page an identification card according to the attached model (Appendix b). The persons entered in the Abt. 1 or 2 receive a blue one, the persons entered into Section 3 receive a green one, and the persons registered in Section 4 receive a red identification card. The identification cards are to be obtained from the Reichsdruckerei. The identification of blue passports, which indicates whether the holder is registered in Division 1 or Division 2, shall not take place in any porm. Since the Reichsführer 4, Reichskommissar für die Festigung deutschen Volkstums, as a foreign national who can be described as a single German, also receive an ID, it is necessary to refrain from the general issue of nationality cards in future in order to avoid unnecessary administrative work. Nationality cards or home documents must be issued only on application in accordance with the general regulations, after a corresponding identification of the German People's List or of the Reichsführer W, Reichskommissar for the consolidation of German ethnicity, has been taught. In the cases in which the places of the German People's List deny German ethnicity, although it has been recognised so far, previously issued nationality cards are to be recovered from the exhibition authorities. The exhibition authorities have to inform the Reichsssicherheitshauptamt of this. (26) If persons who are admitted to the German People's List carry non-German names, they will have to accept a German name on a regular basis.
