"Hitler, the Government Councilor, Swears on the Weimar
Constitution of Dr. Hugo Preuss" (March 1932)
On February 25, 1932, Hitler was appointed councilor [Regierungsrat] in the state government of Braunschweig. It was
a minor post, but the appointment involved the conferral of German citizenship, which made him eligible to run for
president. This satire shows Hitler taking the citizenship oath and swearing to uphold the Weimar Constitution. Drawing
by Andreas Paul Weber, from Widerstand (March 1932).

"First a German, then a Civil Servant" (July 31, 1933)
The race laws of April 7, 1933, were part of the National Socialist "coordination" [Gleichschaltung] of all public
authorities. They signaled the end of legal equality for German Jews. From that point on, all employees in the civil
service, the administration, and the judicial system would have to present a so-called certification of Aryan ancestry
[Ariernachweis]. Subsequent decrees forced Jews out of more and more branches of professional activity. Whereas a
large part of the German population reacted with aversion or passivity to the SA's "rabble-rousing" or "hooligan" anti-
Semitism [Radau-Antisemitismus], many Germans welcomed the exclusion of Jews from particular professions and
hoped to benefit from it economically. The photograph shows an event organized by the Reich Union of German Civil
Servants in Hamburg. The banner suspended from the balcony reads: "First a German, then a Civil Servant." Photo by
Joseph Schorer.
