| Third Regulation
under the Reich Citizenship Law, 14 June 1938, 1938 Reichsgesetzblatt, Part I, Page 627 |
|
| On the basis of section 3 of the Reich Citizenship Law of 15 September 1935* (Reichsgesetzblatt, p. 1, p. 1146), the following is decreed: | |
| Article I
Section 1 |
|
| (1) An industrial enterprise is
deemed to be Jewish if the owner is a Jew (sec. 5 of the Reich Citizenship Law
of 14 Nov. 1935, Reichsgesetzblatt, pt. 1, p. 1333). (2) The industrial enterprise of a private partnership or a limited partnership is considered to be Jewish if one or more of the personally liable partners are Jews. (3) The industrial enterprise of a legal person is considered as Jewish — (a) if one or more of the persons appointed as legal representatives or one or more of the members of the supervisory board of directors are Jews; (b) if Jews have a decisive interest in the concern by capital or by votes. Decisive interest by capital is obtained if more than one-fourth of the capital belongs to Jews; decisive interest by votes is obtained if the votes of Jews attain one-half of all votes. (4) The provisions of (3) apply equally to companies operating under the mining, laws but having no legal personality. |
|
| Section 2 | |
| If, in the case of a limited liability company or a joint stock company in which at least one holder is personally liable, no Jew was a member of the Vorstand or of the Aufsichtsrat on 1 January 1938, it is assumed that Jews are not decisively interested by capital or votes (sec. 1, 3b). The opposite is assumed if | |
* The Reich Citizenship Law and the Law for the Protection of German Blood and honor, both announced and signed at Nuernberg on 15 September 1935, were the original so-called Nuernberg Laws. Various aspects of the history, development and application of these laws were of particular importance in the "Justice Case" and the "Ministries case," and the volumes of this series devoted to those two trials contain considerable materials on this subject.. See, in volume III, section V D, "The Making and Application of Special Measures concerning Nationals of Occupied Territories, Minority Groups and Races, and Alleged ‘Asocials’." and In Volume XIII, section IX B. "Treatment of Nationals of Various Countries. Racial Policy. ‘The Final Solution of the Jewish Question’."
