Deutsche Emigrationspresse (Auch Eine Geschichte Des ,,Ausschusses Zur Vorbereitung Einer Deutschen Volksfront" in Paris)
URSULA LANGKAU-ALEX DEUTSCHE EMIGRATIONSPRESSE (AUCH EINE GESCHICHTE DES ,,AUSSCHUSSES ZUR VORBEREITUNG EINER DEUTSCHEN VOLKSFRONT" IN PARIS) Hitlers Ernennung zum deutschen Reichskanzler am 30. Januar 1933; der Brand des Reichstages in Berlin am 27. Februar und die einen Tag spater erlassene ,,Notverordnung des Reichsprasidenten zum Schutz von Volk und Staat"; der erste Boykott jiidischer Ge- schafte am 1. April; die Auflosung der Gewerkschaften am 2. Mai und die Biicherverbrennung vom 10. Mai, mit der ein Grossteil der lite- rarischen und wissenschaftlichen Produktion der Weimarer Periode als ,,geistiger Unflat" und ,,jiidische Entartung" verdammt wurde; schliesslich das Verbot der SPD am 22. Juni und das ,,Gesetz gegen die Neubildung von Parteien" vom 14. Juli 1933 - diese und eine Reihe anderer Ereignisse1 fiihrten dazu, dass schlagartig Tausende Deutsch- land verliessen: fiihrende politische Personlichkeiten der Weimarer Republik, Wissenschaftler, Kunstler, Schriftsteller, Journalist en und viele Angehorige des jiidischen Biirgertums.2 Der Emigrantenstrom aus Deutschland verteilte sich zunachst rund 1 Die innenpolitischen Ereignisse, die mit Terror, Inhaftierungen in Gefang- nissen, Zuchthausern, Konzentrationslagern; mit Folterungen und Mord gepaart gingen, fiihrt Karl Dietrich Bracher eingehend auf in Die nationalsozialistische Machtergreifung, Koln, Opladen 1960, S. 75-219. 2 Die Angaben iiber die Gesamtemigration gehen weit auseinander. Die Quellen- lage ist immer noch unzureichend, sowohl binsichtlich der Statistiken der ver- schiedensten Emigrantengruppen und -organisationen, als auch der der National- sozialisten. Die Volkerbunds-Zahlen sind meist nur grobe Schatzungen, und die offiziellen Erhebungen der Emigrationslander selbst sind — soweit sie iiberhaupt bestehen — kaum erforscht. Zu diesem Problem s.

Prince Sithiporn was born on 11 April 1883, the fourth son of His Royal Highness Prince Krisdapiniharn, Krom Phra Nares Voraridb. He was thus a grandson of King Mongkut and a nephew of King Chulalongkorn. He was educated at Harrow and the City and Guild's Technical College, now a part of London University. Returning to Siam in 1901, he joined the Ministry of Foreign Affairs as one of the Secretaries to the General Adviser. Four years later, he was transferred to the Ministry of Finance's Opium Department of which he rose to become Director-General. He resigned in 1921 to live in the country and to start an experi mental farm as Bangberd, 400 kilometres south of Bangkok. There, he experimented with may new crops hitherto unknown to Siam. To UBITUAHIES stimuiate new ways of thinking about agriculture, he co-founded a monthly agricultural journal called Kasikorn or The Fanner in 1927. In 1931, he was recalled to become Director-General of the Agricultural Inspection Department. Prince Sithiporn at once established three agricultural experimental stations in the North, the Northeast and the South. These stations were later expanded to become agricultural schools, demonstrations farms and extension agencies. This second period of government service was terminated by the 1932 Revolution which brought in its train more than 0 a decade of great misfortune for Prince Sithiporn. In 1944 Prince Sithiporn went back to Bangberd to rehabilitate hi s farm. He was recalled to be Minister of Agriculture in the Kbuang Abhaiwong cabinet of 1947-1948. -

Berlin Period Reports on Albert Einstein's Einstein's FBI File –
Appendix Einstein’s FBI file – reports on Albert Einstein’s Berlin period 322 Appendix German archives are not the only place where Einstein dossiers can be found. Leaving aside other countries, at least one personal dossier exists in the USA: the Einstein File of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).1036 This file holds 1,427 pages. In our context the numerous reports about Ein- stein’s “Berlin period” are of particular interest. Taking a closer look at them does not lead us beyond the scope of this book. On the contrary, these reports give a complex picture of Einstein’s political activities during his Berlin period – albeit from a very specific point of view: the view of the American CIC (Counter Intelligence Corps) and the FBI of the first half of the 1950s. The core of these reports is the allegation that Einstein had cooperated with the communists and that his address (or “office”) had been used from 1929 to 1932 as a relay point for messages by the CPG (Communist Party of Germany, KPD), the Communist International and the Soviet Secret Service. The ultimate aim of these investigations was, reportedly, to revoke Einstein’s United States citizenship and banish him. Space constraints prevent a complete review of the individual reports here. Sounderthegivencircumstancesasurveyofthecontentsofthetwomost im- portant reports will have to suffice for our purposes along with some additional information. These reports are dated 13 March 1950 and 25 January 1951. 13 March 1950 The first comprehensive report by the CIC (Hq. 66th CIC Detachment)1037 about Einstein’s complicity in activities by the CPG and the Soviet Secret Service be- tween 1929 and 1932 is dated 13 March 1950.1038 Army General Staff only submit- ted this letter to the FBI on 7 September 1950. -

Toast by PM Lee Hsien Loong at the Official Dinner Hosted in Honour of His Serene Highness Hereditary Prince Alois Von Und Zu Li
TOAST BY PM LEE HSIEN LOONG AT THE OFFICIAL DINNER HOSTED IN HONOUR OF HIS SERENE HIGHNESS HEREDITARY PRINCE ALOIS VON UND ZU LIECHTENSTEIN, CROWN PRINCE OF THE PRINCIPALITY OF LIECHTENSTEIN Your Serene Highness Prince Alois of Liechtenstein Distinguished Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen 1. It is my pleasure to welcome Your Serene Highness and your delegation back to Singapore. We are honoured that Your Serene Highness is visiting Singapore again less than three years since your last visit. 2. Singapore and Liechtenstein share many similarities. We are both small countries, surrounded by much larger neighbours. We have limited natural resources, but have developed vibrant economies and financial services sectors by creating pro-business environments. Because of our strategic situations, we both strongly support open economies and free trade. We are thus natural partners in multilateral forums, such as the UN, the Forum of Small States and the Global Governance Group (3G). In fact, Liechtenstein’s Foreign Minister Dr Aurelia Frick, who is with us tonight, coined the name “Global Governance Group”. The 3G has been a useful platform for us to engage the G20 and the broader UN membership. 3. Our bilateral cooperation is strong, even though we only established diplomatic relations in 2010. Earlier, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance Tharman Shanmugaratnam and Minister Frick signed an Avoidance of Double Taxation Agreement. This will boost trade and investment between our countries. I am also glad that you have brought a business delegation to Singapore. I hope they are excited about the opportunities in Asia, and see value in using Singapore as a springboard to the region.
