INTRODUCTION
The Guides to German Records Microfilmed at Alexandria, VA, constitute a series of finding aids to the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) microfilm publications of seized records of German central, regional, and local government agencies and of military commands and units, as well as of the Nazi Party, its component formations, affiliated associations, and supervised organizations. For the most part, these records were created during the period 1920-1945.
The guide series was initiated as a microfilming project of the Committee for the Study of War Documents of the American Historical Association (AHA) in cooperation with the National Archives and the Department of the Army. With the termination of AHA participation in July 1963, the National Archives assumed sole responsibility for the reproduction of records and the preparation of guides.
Guide No. 93, Records of Private German Enterprises and Individuals, Part HI, describes records reproduced on 15 rolls of NARA Microfilm Publications T70, T82, and T83, arranged as follows:
T70: Records of the Reich Press Association, rolls 127-133 T82: Records of the Academy for German Law, roll 551
T83: Deck Logs of the Northern German Lloyd SS Europa, rolls 104-110
German Guides Nos. 9 and 88 are Parts I and II of the descriptive series for Records of Private German Enterprises and Individuals.
The Reich Press Association (Reichsverband der Deutschen Presse, RDP) was organized as a public corporation by the Schriftleitergesetz of October 4, 1933. During the Nazi period, the RDP served as the cenUal organization of German editors, with headquarters in Berlin and regional offices in Germany and German-occupied territories. Dr. Wilhelm Weiss was its Director. The RDP was subordinated to the Reich Ministry for Public Enlightenment and Propaganda (Reichsministerium fiir VolksaufklLrung und Propaganda). RDP records described in this guide include general correspondence between headquarters and regional offices and with other German agencies; membership lists; annual reports and financial statements; laws and instructions governing the German press; and miscellaneous judicial opinions and verdicts involving press matters.
The Academy for German Law (Akademie fiir Deutsches Recht, ADR) was founded on June 26, 1933, by Hans Frank, then Reich Minister for Justice and also Bavarian Minister of Jlastice. The ADP maintained an office in Berlin and a "House of German Law" in Munich. Its staff, consisting of government and Nazi Party officials, judges, attorneys, law-enforcement officers, and university professors, was divided into a number of committees dealing with specific legal questions and research topics. ADR functions included assisting in the drafting ef a new German code of justice and collaboration with other Reich authorities in the formulation and enactment of laws designed to foster National Socialism. Specifically, the ADR critiqued and reviewed proposed legislation, reorganized legal and political training at German educational institutions, published legal papers, coordinated the exchange of information on legal matters, and maintained liaison with legal organizations in other countries. ADR records described in this guide include minutes of ADR committee meetings, legal publications, and legislative proposals.

logs (vols. 2, 4, 5, 7-10, 12-27, 29, 32-36, and 38-47) covering the period June 24, 1930, to February 20, 1945. The original records described in this guide were returned after filming to the Federal Republic of Germany and deposited at the Bundesarchiv in Koblenz. The master negatives of Microfilm Publications T70, T82, and T83 have been retained by the National Archives, and copies of specific rolls may be purchased from the Publication Sales Branch, National Archives and Records Administration, Washington, DC 20408.
