Carl Neubronner (politician)

Carl Neubronner (born June 5, 1892 in Frankenthal ; † December 21, 1961 in Worms ) was a German politician ( FDP ).

Life

After attending secondary school in Ludwigshafen am Rhein , Neubronner studied law and economics at the universities in Munich and Heidelberg . During his studies, which he interrupted because of his participation in the First World War, he became a member of the Corps Vitruvia in Munich . In 1920 he was promoted to Dr. rer. pole. PhD . From 1920 to 1930 he worked as an employee in the private sector. From 1931 he worked as a tax advisor in Hardenburg and Bad Dürkheim .

After the Second World War , Neubronner was a co-founder of the Democratic Party of Rhineland-Palatinate (DPRP), from which the state association of the FDP Rhineland-Palatinate emerged in 1947 . In the first state election in September 1947 he was elected as a member of the Rhineland-Palatinate state parliament, where he took over the chairmanship of the liberal parliamentary group.

In the state parliament session on June 16, 1948, Neubronner snubbed the French occupying power by comparing the food situation in this zone with that in a German concentration camp . During the meeting, the French Colonel Roger Magniez, head of the “Section Intérieur et Cultes” of the French military government from Neustadt an der Weinstrasse, was present. He interrupted Neubronner with heckling, said to him: "You have never been in a concentration camp!" And asked to speak to Prime Minister Peter Altmeier . The session of the Landtag was then interrupted and the news about it went over the radio that same noon. Neubronner lost the parliamentary group chairmanship and resigned his parliamentary mandate on July 5, 1948 due to an intervention by the French military government.

After his withdrawal from state politics, Neubronner worked as a tax advisor in Worms. In the 1950s he was the first chairman of the Rhineland-Palatinate regional association of tax advisors and tax assistants, as well as a member of the executive committee and deputy president of the federal headquarters of tax advisors and tax assistants . He succeeded in making the association, like the lawyers, a chamber under public law. In addition, he researched the family history of the Neubronner in Kronberg and Frankenthal, especially for the period from 1750 to 1950. In 1960 he organized the 400th anniversary of the Neubronner fountain coat of arms that Emperor Ferdinand I had given the family in Kronberg .

He rarely spoke about religion to his wife Hildegard, who is also a tax advisor. He once said: “I sense a great creative power”. He probably traced this creative power in his very broad historical research.
