Emile Wetterlé

Emile Wetterlé (born April 2, 1861 in Colmar , † July 24, 1931 in Ouchy ) was a Catholic clergyman, editor and member of the German Reichstag .

Life

Wetterlé attended the Collège libre in Colmar, the Collège Lachapelle-sous-Rougemont and the universities in Salamanca and Innsbruck . In 1885 he was ordained a priest. In 1889 he was private tutor and in 1893 vicar in Mulhouse . He was editor-in-chief of the Journal de Colmar and later of the Nouvelliste Alsace-Lorraine .

He was also a member of the District Assembly for Upper Alsace, the Alsace-Lorraine State Committee and the Alsace-Lorraine Second Chamber . From 1898 to 1915 he was a member of the German Reichstag for the constituency of Alsace-Lorraine 5 ( Rappoltsweiler ).

During the First World War he became active in propaganda on the French side, so his mandates were declared closed in March 1915 and he was expelled from his parliamentary group. Due to the events of the war in Alsace, a replacement election was postponed several times, and ultimately no replacement representative was elected to replace Wetterlé before the end of the war. From 1919 to 1924 he was a member of the French Chamber of Deputies and from 1924 until his death employee of the French embassy to the Holy See .
