Abstract
Description
Enclosed with No. 188. Wienbeck was asked about possibility of a comprehensive Middle Class law forecast by press; he replied that Ministry of Economics would make no single law covering all questions affecting Middle Classes but a number of individual laws would be enacted; one law prohibits premiums and another prohibits opening of new retail stores; leaders of the Kampfbund plan no drastic action against department stores or unit price stores; they realize too rapid elimination of these branches of trade would endanger economic system; when questioned about role of middle class in the National Socialist "Staendestaat" (organic state) Wienbeck stated question had no significance; workmen interested in wages, not ideology; thinks the "Fuehrer" idea in business may be carried too far.
