Julius Versé

Julius Versé (* 1881 ; † 1966 ) was a German geologist and mining engineer .

In 1911 he passed the state examination as a mountain trainee in the Bonn district . In 1916 he was a mountain assessor in Cologne and a battery leader and first lieutenant in the First World War. He had the title of professor.

From 1936 to 1939 he was the last president of the Prussian State Geological Institute . He succeeded Wilfried von Seidlitz in office. His term of office ended when the state institute, like the other German and Austrian state geological offices, was dissolved under National Socialist rule and incorporated into the Reich Office for Soil Research . Versé and the long-established officials in the Ministry of Economics were unable to counteract this restructuring by the National Socialist rulers (especially Hermann Görings ).
