33 -5- In the course of the planning of the inner calm, order and security, the state now issues general or individual orders by its administrative authorities. Now he must monitor their observance. But to this Zwekc ømuss he has the means of power which, if necessary, also help against the will of the individual of the order. He needs here to executive bodies. In the area of internal administration these are the gendarmerie and the uniformed protectorate police. It is therefore clear that what happened in the rich only after the takeover of power in the area of the police administration existed in the countries of Bohemia and Moravia because of the special structure of the general administration for many decades, and indeed the police management is in the strict sense such an essential component in the organism of the public administration that the separation of police from the administration here would mean the amputation of a healthy member in order to attach a prosthesis to the organism, because such an administration deprived of police administration in the form of a new enforcement corps would necessarily have to be preserved if it was to fulfil its function. The fact that the police are involved in numerous administrative tasks in the Old Reich is also not decisive. Instead, this peculiar development has to be investigated: By decree of the chief of the German police of 26.6.1936 the organizational structure of the imperial police into order police and security police was carried out, whereby the order police among other things. Protection police, traffic police, gendarmerie, community police, and the security police include political police, criminal police, press law, arms law, passports, foreign affairs. Since independent executive bodies are unthinkable without any authority, but the cohesion of the police with the general administration had been blocked in this respect, the newly-incorporated police began to make themselves an orderly and executive sovereign body by withdrawing police duties from the general government. The individual police divisions were not only separated at the highest level by the creation of a main office, but also developed largely independent governmental organisations, with the secret state police, the criminal police and the security service in particular being given their own services with a business area which was withdrawn from the general administration. But this development is absolutely unnecessary in the protectorate, if not geine personal interests intended the expansion of a certain power-pousitions, but for which at least now in the future war year is not the appropriate time. How is it now at the present unsustainable state?
