By decree of the Fuehrer of April 21, 1933, the Deputy of the Fuehrer received full power "to decide in the name of the Fuehrer in all matters concerning the Party leadership". Thus the Deputy of the Fuehrer is the representative of the Fuehrer with full power over the entire leadership of the National Socialist German Workers' Party. The office of the Deputy of the Fuehrer is therefore an office of the Fuehrer.
In essence, it is the duty of the Deputy of the Fuehrer to direct the basic policies of Party work, to give directives and to take care that all Party work be done according to National Socialist principles.
All the threads of the Party work are gathered together by the Deputy of the Fuehrer. He gives the final Party word on all intra-Party plans and all questions vital for the existence of the German people. The Deputy of the Fuehrer gives the directives required for all the Party work, in order to maintain the unity, determination and striking power of the National Socialist German Workers' Party as the bearer of the National Socialist philosophy.
In addition to the duties of Party leadership, the Deputy of the Fuehrer has far reaching powers in the field of the State; these are:
1. Participation in national and state legislation (laws and decrees) including the preparation of Fuehrer orders. The Deputy of the Fuehrer in this way validates the conception of the Party as the guarder of the National Socialist philosophy. (Fuehrer orders of July 27, 1934, and April 6, 1935.)
2. Approval of the Deputy of the Fuehrer of proposed appointments for (government) officials and Labor Service leaders. (De-

crees of the Fuehrer of September 24, 1935, July 10, 1937 and April 3, 1936.)
3. Securing the influence of the Party over the self-government of the municipal units. (Section 18 of the German Municipality Decree; Section 3, paragraph 5 of the First Decree for the Execution of the Ostmark Law of June 10, 1939 and Section 2, paragraph 5 of the First Decree for the Execution of the Sudeten Gau Law of June 10, 1939.)
