Trials of German Major War Criminals: Volume 22 The question is whether a Blockleiter is affected by the circumstance that on the basis of secret instructions human beings were removed by mercy deaths. That Zellen- and Blockleiter are still included in the proceedings, whereas members of the staffs of the Ortsgruppen who held a similar or even higher rank are not included, is due to the fact that in the organization manual they have been described as "functionaries" ("Hoheitstrager"). This proves that Zellen- and Blockleiter were excepted from the political instruction which was meant to be achieved by these leadership hints, and that they had no, or very small tasks of a leadership nature, and that it was not considered essential to aid them by means of these leadership hints. www.vex.net /~nizkor/hweb/imt/tgmwc/tgmwc-22/tgmwc-22-210-02.shtml   (2467 words)

Blockleiter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A Blockleiter (block leader) was the lowest official of the NSDAP, responsible for the political supervision of a neighbourhood or city block and formed the link between the NSDAP and the general population. Also colloquially known as a Blockwart (block attendant or warden), he was charged with planning, spreading propaganda and developing an acceptance to the policies of the NSDAP among the households (typically 40 to 60) in his area. It was also the duty of the Blockleiter to spy on the population and report any anti-Nazi activities to the local office. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Blockleiter   (195 words)

The Avalon Project : Nuremberg Trial Proceedings Volume 42 The Blockleiters and Zellenleiters were greatly inferior in authority and political responsibility to the members of the staff of the Ortsgruppenleiter. One Blockleiter was of the opinion that the maintenance of their families and performance of their tasks as Blockleiters absorbed all their time so that they could not have terrorized the population. It was denied that any Blockleiters were aware of the existence of the SD, although on cross-examination this transpired to mean that they were uninformed as to the scope of its activities. www.yale.edu /lawweb/avalon/imt/proc/naeve.htm   (21289 words)

The Mazal Library   (Site not responding.

Shofar FTP Archives: imt/tgmwc/tgmwc-21/tgmwc-21-205.07 The Gauleiter, Kreisleiter and Ortsgruppenleiter also had staffs, people working in their offices who are also political Leaders but not Hoheitstrager; and the prosecution excluded the staff officers end the Ortsgruppen staffs, leaving in: all Hoheitstrager, from the Gauleiter down to the Blockleiter, and the staff political Leiter, or the Gau staff officers. The document is of importance, because it states what applicants must afford proof of their political reliability before being able to expect a grant. This means that the Blockleiter and Zellenleiter who must first prove their political reliability cannot therefore be Hoheitstrager in the true sense of the word. www.vex.net /~nizkor/ftp.cgi/imt/ftp.py?imt/tgmwc/tgmwc-21/tgmwc-21-205.07   (2312 words)
