	his_2 (The Secret State Police)
		Separated from the general police force and re-established as an independent agency, the Secret State Police was soon removed from the Ministry for Home Affairs and made directly answerable to the Prime Minister.
		Having gradually taken charge of almost all of the political police forces in the non-Prussian states, in April 1934, Heinrich Himmler became "Inspector" and thus the de facto head of the Secret State Police.
		In the late summer of 1933, a prison was established at Prinz-Albrecht-Strasse 8, in the cellar of the Secret State Police Office.

	International Policing in 19th-Century Europe (by Mathieu Deflem)
		Modern police institutions were introduced in the German territories in the 15th century with the function of administering all matters concerning the "politeia", the constitution of town or state.
		Police and press were both crucial and related institutions during the early development of capitalism, specifically because a "good police" (in the cameralist sense of policy or administration) concerned the public market, whereas the press concerned public opinion (Habermas 1962:77-79).
		International criminal police conferences were held in Buenos Aires in 1905, in Madrid in 1909, in San Paolo in 1912, in Washington in 1913, in Monaco in 1914, in Buenos Aires in 1920, and in New York in 1922 and 1923 (Dressler 1933:361; Hagemann 1933; Marabuto 1935:22-27).

	Ten Years Security Police and SD, Published in Die Deutsche Polizei, 1 February 1943
		The State Police Bureaus were separated from their organizational connection with the District Government or the police administrations of the State and appointed as independent authorities of the Secret State Police, in the spring of 1934 by a circular decree of the Prime Minister and the Chief of the Secret State Police.

		The Chiefs of the State Police Bureaus assumed the functions of the political executive with the current "Oberpraesident" (later on also with the Reich Governor), that is the president of the Government, according to the decree of the Reich and Prussian Ministers of the Interior, dated 20 Sept 1936.

		In the late 1850s, a secret ban was placed on all German written materials emanating from America, judged by the secret police in Berlin as a fountainhead spreading "'democratic tendencies' which might lead 'to undermine monarchic foundations and Christianity and ethics'".14 The Police Union also shadowed figures in America associated with the German democratic movement.

		But the traditional fl Vulcan fiber shako continued to be worn in some police precincts as late as 1940, but, of course, the Prussian shield had to be replaced by the NS national eagle and swastika.
