from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Walther Brecht

Ernst Walther Brecht (born November 8, 1841 in Aschersleben , † November 10, 1909 in Arosa ) was a German lawyer and director of the Lübeck-Büchener railway company .

Life

origin

Walther came from a long-established family on his father's side, his grandfather - master saddler Johann Heinrich Brecht (1766–1825) - already worked here in Gröningen and the youngest of four sons. His father, Christoph Heinrich Brecht (born October 22, 1789 in Gröningen; † December 29, 1872 in Rudolstadt ), had several children with Ida, née Schobelt, (born April 14, 1806 in Kroppenstedt ; † March 23, 1876 in Berlin ) . As a pastor , he was supposed to lead his family into the middle classes and finally work in Ochtmersleben .

career

His father noticed his great eagerness to learn during his lessons . Brecht's extraordinary memory suggested a tale that his eldest brother loved to tell. According to this, Walther was able to recite long passages from the Frithjofs saga at an age when he could hardly speak . After the lessons from his father, he sent him to the high school in Magdeburg in 1853 . In 1861 he moved to the university in Jena , where he belonged to the “Arminia” fraternity , then Zurich and Berlin . After five semesters of studying philology , he turned to law and political science . His historical sense and his linguistic talent, especially his predilection for the old classics , were essentially due to those studies. He passed his legal clerkship exam in 1867 and served as a one-year volunteer . Then he took up his assessor studies . This was interrupted in 1870 by the Franco-German War to which he was drafted and fought in the ranks of the V Corps . In the battle of Weissenburg he excelled by suggesting an assault from a covered rifle position . For this he was awarded the Iron Cross . The wound he suffered in battle , however, was so severe that it made him permanently unfit for service. After recovering and completing the interrupted assessor examination , he first had to work as an auditor in Poznan until the end of the war and then became a district judge in Perleberg .

His later father-in-law , Theodor Weishaupt , who was still distant from him at the time , had said to his brother Brechts about his application: "I'll send him to Maybach , when he finishes, I can use him."

Sun joined Brecht in 1872 as a government assessor in the service of the administration of Prussian Railroad in the railway management Hanover in Hanover then Bremen under the presidency of the late Minister of Public Works .

In 1874 he went as a research assistant to the railway department of the Prussian Ministry of Commerce in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs , before joining the Directorate of the Upper Silesian Railway in Breslau became active.

As the second salaried director ( technical director ), Brecht joined the five-man management of the Lübeck-Büchener Eisenbahngesellschaft (LBE) on July 1, 1878, replacing Hugo Klotz, who had retired at his own request . During its activity the LBE went through a continuous upward movement. For the introduction of an express train service to Copenhagen , Brecht and Chief Operations Inspector Blumenthal were appointed Knights of the Order of Dannebrog by the King of Denmark in 1883 . For those to Stettin he received the Ernestine House Order and was awarded the Cross of Honor of the Order of the Griffin of Mecklenburg-Schwerin by Friedrich Franz IV on the 50th anniversary of the Lübeck-Büchener Railway Company .

When the chairman of the board, Anton Ferdinand Benda , retired, on January 1, 1888, Brecht also succeeded him as chairman of the operations director. The government and building advisor Hermann Textor , until then Railway Directorate Erfurt , completed the management as a technical member. In addition to Textor, the directors Carl Christensen , August Butterweck and the extensive initiative- rich work of Udo von Alvensleben were supposed to support the upward trend of society. Under the primitive conditions of the operating resources , which lasted until 1906 , they achieved extraordinary results and the company grew into a financially stable and operationally flawless institute . For example, the Lübeck-Travemünder Railway was established in 1881/82 or the connection from Lübeck to Schlutup from 1901/02 .

At the 41st ordinary general assembly of the LBE on May 28, 1890, Emil Wolpmann resigned voluntarily from its board and was replaced almost unanimously by Friedrich Heinrich Bertling . The capital was increased, whereby the shareholders were entitled to 16: 1 new shares at a preferential price.

The non-profit building association elected Brecht on April 26, 1895 as a substitute for its arbitration board .

Site plan of the facilities (1908)

At the meeting of the Father City Association on April 29, 1896 , Johann Heinrich Evers gave a lecture on the station question . Only two of the planned projects were considered:

  1. the so-called Rethteichprojekt however, should not head station near the Linde place , but a way station near the Protect court received
  2. an elevation of the railway on the Wall Peninsula, whereby the passenger station would come after the cat bastion , while the freight station would remain in its current location

But Brecht's work was not only extremely significant for the Lübeck railway system . He had had an equally great, if not considerably greater, influence on the promotion of the German railway system in general through his work in the Association of German Railway Administrations. This part of his work was hidden from the public and was only known in specialist circles. Brecht received influence over the further development of the entire German railway industry. In 1890, as one could see in the German Reichs-Anzeiger and Königlich Prussischen Staats-Anzeiger on June 6th of that year, the King of Prussia awarded him the 3rd Class Red Eagle Order . In 1895, as chairman, he was commissioned to revise a technical committee that was revising a wagon agreement to determine the wagon routing between the respective railway administrations and presented this in 1896. In recognition of this, the King of Prussia appointed him to the secret government council on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the association .

On June 30, 1903, the director of the LBE was offered a torchlight procession by around 1400 officials on the occasion of his 25 years of service . This was followed by a meeting in the concert hall. The next day he was congratulated by many members of the Senate and the Chamber of Commerce .

Under Brecht, the line to Hamburg from the station to the new main station was expanded to two tracks. For his redesign of the LBE railway system , he was awarded the Order of the Red Eagle 2nd Class at the opening of the station and the Royal Crown Order 2nd Class at the Coronation and Order Festival on January 18, 1907 .

When the Lübeck main station , built according to the designs of Fritz Klingholzes , opened in the following year , Brecht was once again awarded the Commander's Cross of the Order of the Griffin by the Grand Duke of Mecklenburg-Schwerin .

Heinrich Mahn, at that time the architecture critic of the Hanseatic City of Lübeck, published his reviews in the Lübeckische Blätter and devoted himself to the station complex in two successive editions. The new administration building of the LBE opposite the train station is related in its forms, but looks much more noble and elegant. He did not fare like many other designs that have won competitions. When these were then built, the architect lacked the discipline to only work towards the overall effect. Often he becomes petty, creates drawing board architecture and thereby deprives himself of the best effect of the design, which is flawless in itself. Often something inorganic, alien to the architectural concept, is imposed on him . The railway station or the town hall are examples of this in Lübeck .

former administration building of the LBE

The building front , broken at an obtuse angle , is made of brick with sparse sandstone facing , as is the case with the train station , and is structured in a representative manner by pilasters in the simplest, taut and rhythmic manner. The work through of the architectural details was free of excesses and appropriate to the material. The only point of contention was the corner tower , which at the time was apparently not yet to be exterminated , without which the building would have been even better according to the critic. The large, clear roof solution with red tiles , a material that avoids reflections from the black and blue roof of the reception building , contributes to the effect. The architect's task of reconciling the two factors, economy and aesthetics , was achieved in an architecturally outstanding achievement.

As on May 29, 1908 with two locomotives , locomotive 2 and Lok 8-covered 118 axes strong freight train (59 loaded freight cars ) of Eutin-Lübeck Railway on the morning the train yard leaving transited the main train station, derailed the under full steam locomotives and the seven first wagons behind the pedestrian bridge over Fackenburger Allee at the level of the signal box . Four other wagons, which were pushed into one another at the level of the railway post office and thus out of the track, did not overturn. Below the bridge, locomotive 2 driving at the top cut open the locked switch that had broken when it was driven over . While their front wheels followed the Eutin track , everything else drove into the harbor track . Here they were off the tracks forced out . The driver's car following the locomotives was thrown off the rails to the left, overturned and almost came to rest next to locomotive 8, which was digging into the ground. The six following wagons pushed into and over one another. The track was torn from the ground over a length of 30 meters. People were not injured in the accident, but the damage to property was considerable.

Analogous to Brecht's structural reorganization of the company's railway facilities in Wandsbek and Oldesloe , their stations were also modernized . As a result of Brecht's great versatility in the field of administration and finance, he knew how to combine the acquisitions of the corporation he led with the interests of the general public. He succeeded in negotiating the efforts of the Prussian railway policy towards the private railway companies and in securing new values ​​for the LBE by maintaining freight transport .

From the spring of 1909, Brecht suffered from severe lung disease and his health deteriorated dramatically. In search of healing, he was first sent to Wiesbaden and later on a cure in the Plessur Alps in the Swiss mountains . He died there one morning as a result of a hemorrhage .

Public life

Brecht first appeared in public in Lübeck when the director announced at the meeting of the Society for the Promotion of Charitable Activities on January 19, 1881 that Brecht had been accepted as a member of the Society.

politics

Brecht also took part in the imperial and local political life of the Hanseatic city. Politically he belonged to the National Liberal Party and to its local and central executive committee. For a long time he was the spiritual leader of the national liberal cause in Lübeck and at times in its entire executive committee. Since 1885 he was a valued member of the citizenry. Here he was repeatedly a member of the citizens 'committee as well as very often in commissions of the citizenship and the citizens' committee. There he was not a man of quick action but of careful consideration.

The application for the expansion of the central station for electrical lighting at a cost of 153,700 marks was referred to the commission consisting of Brecht, Siegfried Mühsam , Theodor Schorer , Otto Blunck and Heinrich Heickendorf.

The senate motions for the construction of a bascule bridge for pedestrians over the city moat near the swing bridge of the Eutin Railway , as well as the creation of storage spaces at the Rodenkoppel and expansion of the excavations of the so-called Chimborassowall and additional approval for the already approved earthworks on the Wall peninsula , as well as the creation of a fire pit - and loading space for the suburb of St. Lorenz in connection with the slaughterhouse and a cattle yard to be built soon and the application for hydraulic facilities on the Wall Peninsula for the new part of the harbor were sent to one from Brecht, Friedrich Heinrich Bertling , Friedrich Wilhelm Schwartzkopf, Emil Possehl , Blunck and Burmester with Schulz, Hermann Rittscher and Heinrich Görtz as substitutes.

As early as May 22, 1891, a meeting of members of the Father City Association in the Marien Quartier and the suburb of St. Lorenz dealt with the upcoming new elections for the citizens. Under Heickendorf's leadership, JAC Busson, JH Th. Peters and Schwartzkopf were nominated for the traders, Brecht, Otto Gusmann, C. Hartung and Possehl for the merchants , and Ferdinand Fehling and Franz Louis Georg Wichmann as scholars. 30 representatives were selected from the four constituencies of the city. In the election carried out on June 22nd in electoral district III, all candidates of the Father City Association , with the exception of Hartung, were recognized as correct by the majority of those entitled to vote and were voted for them.

An extraordinary meeting of the Citizens 'Committee was scheduled for November 23, 1892, to continue the deliberations on the civil servants' salary budget. The Senate previously stated , taking into account the salary standardization proposed by the committee , that it considered it necessary to also allow this to stand up for senior legal officials and judges . The committee then decided to refer this matter to one of its seven commissions - Brecht, Görtz, Johann Heinrich Evers , Harms, Pries, Johannes Nicolaus Heinrich Rahtgens and Alfred Stooß .

A commission made up of Johannes Daniel Benda , Wilhelm Brehmer , Brecht, Hermann Wilhelm Fehling , Görtz, Blunck and Rathgens was set up on November 30, 1892 to give preliminary advice on the state budget .

In April 1893, new electoral boards were elected for the upcoming township elections. For electoral district III, Blunck was elected chairman and Brecht his deputy. HW Behn, JJH Blank, Joachim Heinrich Johann Brüning, C. Hartung, Ed. Jappe, Heinrich Thiel , Deputy Eduard Friedrich Ewers , R. Fromm, Hermann Genzken, EGF Mielenz, Consul Rehder and P. Steen.

Approved by the citizens' committee of a 6 m wide road to the railway administration, which met on May 17, 1893. The senate motion regarding forest theft and the field and forest police was referred to a commission consisting of Georg Heinrich Thöl , Stooß, Kahl, Brecht and Friedrich Eduard Schacht with Marty and Rittscher as substitutes. In the same year was the adoption of a revised Law on the tax on the sale of land at one of Dr. Sommer, Brecht and Schacht with Georg Adam Schickedanz as a substitute for the existing commission.

The budget of the charities for the year 1894 was recommended to the citizens for approval on November 29, 1893 , which transferred the state treasury to a commission consisting of Bertling, Brecht, Schön, Sommer, Schorer, Stooß and Schickedanz with the substitutes Lange, Mühsam and Gusmann .

The enactment of a mining law requested at the meeting of the citizens' committee was referred to a commission consisting of Brecht, Stooß, Schacht, Evers and Max Jenne .

In the township elections on June 21, 1897, 907 (74.3%) of the 1221 voters in electoral district III had voted. Of these, 343 voted unanimously for the candidates of the Father City Association , 142 for the Association for the Promotion of the Acquisition of Citizenship and 140 for the list of Social Democrats. Brecht received 440 votes.

At the neighborhood assembly held by the father city association in the citizens' association on May 28, 1903, the following were proposed for the upcoming citizenship elections: Johannes Becker , Hofstaeter, August Leverkühn , Wichmann, Behn, Brecht, Gusmann, Mangels, Strack, Borgwardt, Bussen, Hübner, Miesner, Schwartzkopf and Captain Steffen.

Reichsverein

In the constitution of the kingdom club by moderately liberal voters from urban and rural Hermann Lange (President of the Chamber of Commerce) as Chairman, Mr Gotth was. Joach. Georg Schwartzkopf and the headmaster Max Hoffmann elected as his deputy. By free choice among those present, the following were elected to the board in accordance with the statutes : CH Th. Blech, Jürgen Peter Bade- Schlutup , Brecht, Emil Ferdinand Fehling , JHE Fust, Johs. Krüger, HH Ch. Krützmann- Poggensee , Robert Peacock (doctor) and August Siemsen. Johann Wilhelm Plessing was elected secretary. At the end of the tournament , Brecht was repeatedly re- elected by acclamation .

At the general assembly in the casino on March 28, 1890, Brecht was elected deputy chairman . The general assembly on March 18, 1892 re-elected him to its board.

In his celebratory lecture at the Commers of the Reichsverein, which took place on January 26, 1893 in the Lübeck Kaisersaal on the eve of the imperial birthday , Brecht spoke about the well-being of the Hanseatic city. According to him, the Elbe-Trave Canal will bring it to a new size and bloom on new lines. In his celebratory speech in response to the emperor at the pre-celebration next year, he pointed out that, like his father and grandfather , he was the embodiment of the imperial idea and impartially upheld the equal rights of the major branches of economic activity.

At the meeting on October 24, 1894 Brecht reported on the national liberal Delegiertentag in Frankfurt broader resolutions :

  • Fight against the overturning movements through legal measures while at the same time improving the lot of the lower classes
  • the Poland question
  • Strengthening of the imperial income by increasing imperial taxes and opening new sources of finance
  • Preservation and promotion of the middle class , especially the rural as well as the commercial by supporting the guild system and the establishment of technical schools and chambers of commerce
  • stronger and more purposeful representation of German interests in colonial politics

Following on from the recent social-democratic dispute and the question “whether the same extends to more than purely tactical questions of the party ”, Brecht gave an overview of the development of the social-democratic party program on December 12, 1894 . Here he raised particularly the opposition of the state socialism inclining Lassallean direction with respect to the internationally-revolutionary doctrine of on the floor of the Communist Manifesto standing Marx - Engels' out school.

Professional association of the German private railways

The administration of the professional association of the German private railways was in Lübeck. Brecht, who was a member of the board of directors , became chairman of this trade association in 1885 .

Hanseatic Insurance Company for Disability and Old Age Insurance

As compensation for the loss of the Higher Appeal Court , Lübeck received the headquarters of the Hanseatic Insurance Institute for Invalidity and Old Age Insurance for employees in the three Hanseatic cities of Hamburg and Bremen in 1890 due to the commitment of Senator Karl Peter Klügmann (NLP) after the last major social insurance law was passed under Bismarck and Lübeck. Hermann Gebhard (NLP), a member of the Bremen citizenship and also a member of the Reichstag until 1891 , was appointed its head. He and Brecht were to be close friends.

In August 1890, the organization was to be completed by the election of further committee members . The board of directors should consist of at least 5 employer representatives and as many representatives of the insured persons. For each of the representatives a first and second substitute was to be set up. The election was made by health insurance boards for a period of five years. The steam mill owner Henry Martens was elected as another employer representative of Lübeck, Brecht as his first deputy and the architect and master bricklayer Carl Blunck as the second deputy. Lübeck was electoral district III and provided eleven representatives each.

On November 16, 1909, the funeral procession set in motion on the square between the building that Brecht helped create for the LBE's main railway station and the railways that ended in Lübeck and the new administration building. The large number of wreaths and flower arrangements that had been received were carried forward to the first part of the procession .
