mentary activity, on May 27, 1924, introduced the motion "to place all members of the Jewish race under special laws."
On 25 August, 1924, the National-Socialist freedom movement made the first motion in the Reichstag to "exclude members of the Jewish race from all public offices in Reich, countries, and autonomous bodies and to cause their immediate removal from office."
Soon afterwards Dr. Frick personally voiced his opinion on matters pertaining to civil service officials. On July 17, 1925, he declared: "Never before have the rights of the civil service officials been violated more than in this republic. The best proof for this is the 'Reduction of Personnel Decree'. We, however, demand that a beginning be made particularly in the reduction of two civil service categories. The first we refer to are the so-called officials of the Revolution. The other category consists of the members of the Jewish Race. We deem it below our dignity to be governed by people of that race."
