Emil Loew

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Emil Löw (born February 29, 1892 in Munich , † after 1937) was a German politician ( Völkischer Block , NSDAP ). Among other things, he was a member of the Bavarian State Parliament from 1924 to 1928 .

Live and act

After attending primary school, Löw was trained as a craftsman. After the end of the First World War , Löw gradually began to excel politically at the local level: after the establishment of the first local NSDAP group in Bayreuth in January 1923, Löw became its first local group leader. After the NSDAP was banned after the failed Hitler coup in November 1923, he became involved in various rescue organizations.

In the election to the Bavarian state parliament in April 1924 , Löw was elected as a candidate for the Völkisch block in the Bavarian state parliament. In 1925 he joined the at that time newly constituted NSDAP parliamentary group in the state parliament, to which he still belonged until 1928, but in which, according to Franz Kühnel, from 1925 he “hardly appeared”. Robert Probst counts Löw, Georg Zipfel and Wilhelm Holzwarth among the NSDAP MPs who lacked the “demagogic agitation talent” and who “through their clumsy statements [often] encouraged the state parliament to salmon volleys”. Löw's lack of oratorical talent was already known when the Landtag candidates were drawn up in 1924; that he was nevertheless preferred to Hans Schemm in Bayreuth is seen as an indication that previous contributions to the Nazi movement played an essential role in the selection of candidates. In the party, Löw was one of Julius Streicher ' opponents .

Löw finally joined the NSDAP, which was newly founded in 1925, on June 26, 1926 ( membership number 29,727). In early 1928 he resigned from the NSDAP faction. On June 20, 1928, he also left the party because he had not been nominated for the 1928 state election . On June 5, 1939, he was again admitted to the party retroactively to May 1, 1937.
