National Socialist Party Correspondence
National Socialist Party Correspondence, or NSK for short, was the name of a press service that was set up in 1932 to deliver news about the NSDAP to the party press . After the seizure of power in 1933, all German newspapers were obliged to subscribe to the NSK.
Following an order from Adolf Hitler from August 1931, the messages from the Reich Press Office of the NSDAP were replaced by the NSK from January 15, 1932. According to this order, the editor was Captain a. D. and SA group leader Wilhelm Weiß , who had also published the previous communications.
The main editor was the Reichsamtsleiter Helmut Sündermann , his deputy was the main office manager Wilhelm Ritgen . Gert Sachs took over the representation in Munich. The NSK provided the only press official service for the NSDAP. Its task was to present the statements of the NSDAP as party opinion in all economic, political and cultural positions.
The article and news service published by the NSK should continue to inform the public about essential work and processes within the NSDAP. The NSK was published by Franz-Eher-Verlag in Berlin SW 68 in Zimmerstrasse 88 to 91.
The NSK published the following services once a week:
- German law , special service of the National Socialist Lawyers' Association
- People and farmers , official organ of the Reich Office for Agricultural Policy of the NSDAP
- The German Woman , official press service of the Nazi women's union and the German women's organization
- Newsreel of the NSV , special service of the Reich leadership of the NSDAP, the main office for people's welfare, people and family
By order of the Reich Press Chief of the NSDAP it was further ordered that all press services published by the NSDAP's offices or called National Socialist were placed under the control of the NSK's chief editor. This also included all the NS-Gaudienste published by the NSDAP's Gaupresse offices.
