An administration without a police executive is powerless and there were many proofs of this.
From Hans Frank
First, I was Bavarian State Minister of Justice, and after the ministries of justice in the various states were dissolved I became Reich Minister without portfolio.
I dealt with legal questions in the interest of Adolf Hitler and the NSDAP and its members during the difficult years of struggle for the victory of the Movement.
In 1930 I became a member of the Reichstag.
My aim was to safeguard justice, without doing harm to our war effort.
On 24 August 1939, as an officer in the reserve, I had to join my regiment in Potsdam.
The police officers, so far as discipline, organization, pay, and orders were concerned, came exclusively under the German Reich police system and were in no way connected with the administration of the Government General.
In the main the Academy helped to frame only laws of an economic or social nature, since owing to the development of the totalitarian regime it became more and more impossible to cooperate in other spheres.
Ninety percent of the members of the Academy of German Law were not members of the Party.
War is not a thing one wants.
