History of the Inventory Designer: Before the Second World War, four Kriegsmarinedienststellen (KMD) with headquarters in Hamburg, Bremen, Stettin and Königsberg were responsible for the provision of relief ships and personnel and the execution of troop and supply transports. During the war they were assigned branches on the German coast and in occupied foreign countries. In addition, special maritime transport services have been set up, each with its own head of maritime transport for the Aegean Sea, Norway, Italy and the Black Sea. These maritime transport services were each assigned a number of subordinate maritime transport points. There were other sea transport points in Finland, France and on the eastern Baltic Sea. Inventory description: In 1920, so-called offices of the navy management were formed in Königsberg, Stettin, Lübeck, Hamburg and Bremen, which were directly subordinated to the head of the sea transport department in the navy management. Tasks were the supervision of the coastal intelligence in cooperation with the command offices, as well as connection and switching to local places of the merchant shipping and organizations of the merchant navy. Through these services, the naval leadership was able to make camouflaged preparations for mobilization and influence all nautical issues concerning naval warfare and coastal defense. The tasks of the Lübeck office were taken over by the Hamburg office in 1928. In 1931 the offices were renamed Reichswehrdienststelle Hamburg (subordinated to Wehrkreis II) and Reichsmarinedienststellen Königsberg, Stettin and Bremen. On 4 July 1935 the Reichswehrdienststelle Hamburg and Reichsmarinedienststellen in Königsberg, Stettin and Bremen were renamed Kriegsmarinedienststellen (KMD). At the top of every KMD was a sea officer, in Hamburg in the rank of an admiral, in Bremen, Stettin and Königsberg in the rank of a captain at sea. The Kriegsmarinedienststellen were directly responsible to the Ob.d.M. for all technical and special tasks and in the personal affairs of the officials belonging to their area of command. In the other questions they were subordinated to the station commands of the North Sea (Hamburg and Bremen) and the Baltic Sea (Stettin and Königsberg). The second admirals could give instructions to the KMD for mob work. When the war began in September/October 1939, numerous branch offices were set up at the existing KMD, but they were all closed again by mid-1943. In March 1940 a new KMD was set up in Gdansk and the Navy Plenipotentiary in Gdansk was appointed Admiral of the KMD Gdansk. At the same time, KMD Königsberg was dissolved and converted into a branch of KMD Gdansk. The importance of the KMD Gdansk continued to decline from mid-1944, and from July 1944 the office was no longer headed by a flag officer. Gdansk was taken by the Soviet army on 30.3.1945. The outpost boat group under Oberlt. zur See Thorn controlled the lagoon transports calling at Schwarzort and also carried out the loading and unloading. After the surrender, the KMD Hamburg was renamed "Marinedienstgruppe Hamburg" in 1945.

The chamber's reporting is the result of French legal tradition. Annual reports of the Cologne Chamber of Commerce have been published since 1823. For the first time reporting was made legally binding by the statute of the Chamber of Commerce of Elberfeld and Barmen in 1830. The Prussian decree of 11 February 1848 on the establishment of chambers of commerce made the reporting of the chambers obligatory. Section 24 reads as follows: 'Each year in January, the Chambers of Commerce shall submit a main report to the Minister of Finance on the situation and progress of trade and industry, and shall at the same time submit a copy to the President of the Office of Commerce and the Government. They are obliged to inform the traders and tradesmen of their district of their effectiveness and of the situation and course of trade and trade through the public papers by means of continuous notifications of extracts from the consultation minutes and at the end of each year in a special overview". Further laws of 24 February 1870 and 19 August 1897 expressly emphasised this obligation to submit a report. Since 1897 the reports had to be reproduced in print. Until 1914 the reports were steadily expanded and systematized. This corresponded to the interest of the chambers and the Minister for Trade and Industry, who had the reports published in a supplement of the Prussian Trade Archives until 1872. The Prussian Statistical Bureau, which evaluated the annual reports and based them on comparative overviews of trade and traffic from 1861 onwards, pushed for standardization. The law of 1870, which obliged the chambers to reconcile their interests, did not prevent them from using their annual report as a mouthpiece for their views on economic policy. Free trade and customs were discussed in the annual reports. Although a standardization of the annual reports could not be achieved, the separation of the sections "Views, expert opinions and wishes" (Part A) and "Actual" (Part B) recommended by the Director of the Statistical Bureau, Engel, prevailed. As a rule, Part B contains statistical material which, from today's perspective, provides important data on regional economic and social history. After the First World War, only in exceptional cases did the summary descriptions of the wartime period provided for in the decree of the Prussian Minister of Commerce of 27 October 1914 appear. It was not until 1919 that annual reports were required again. After 1920, many chambers began to produce monthly reports together with neighbouring chambers due to overloading of their scientific officials. The procedure was expressly approved by the Ministry of Commerce, which had been compiling the reports in its magazine "Handel und Gewerbe" since January 1921. Some chambers continued to print annual reports, others presented them in duplicate to the plenary meetings. The monthly reporting of the chambers lasted until 1936. From 1934 to 1939, the Chambers of Commerce produced internal reports every two or three months, some of which were incorporated into their periodicals. With the expansion of official statistics at the Reich, Land and local levels, the Chambers' annual reports lost weight and their character as a decision-making aid for state and municipal administrations. In addition, they were often already outdated when they appeared. Since about 1900 the chambers have countered this development by publishing periodicals, so-called newsletters. After the Second World War, the Law Provisionally Regulating the Law of Chambers of Commerce and Industry did not include a provision on annual reporting, but in practice all chambers publish annual reports and monthly newsletters from 1950 at the latest. The information contained therein is indispensable as a source of regional history. The following overview covers exclusively annual reports from the German-speaking area as well as from Austria-Hungary (before 1918) and the German colonial areas (before 1918). The name of the chamber is preceded by the respective signature in inventory S 6. The annual reports of the DIHT from 1951/52 onwards can be found under the signature S 7 No. 562. Reports of chambers of crafts can also be found in the stock S 7. Reports for the years 1860 to 1872 can also be found in the periodical "Jahresberichte der Handelskammern und kaufmännischen Korporationen des Preußischen Staates" (WWA Library P 11). 76 linear metres I Chambers of Industry and Commerce in today's North Rhine-Westphalia 959 Aachen 1854-1859, 1864, 1868-1870, 1874-1914, 1924-1932, 1949-1996 (1914-1918 "The Aachen Chamber of Commerce and the War") 945 Altena 1853-1854, 1856-1857, 1857-1858, 1859-1861, 1862/1863, 1875-1913 946 Arnsberg 1854-1859, 1873-1908, 1910 ,1911, 1913, 1924-1930, 1937, 1938, 1948, 1950-1956, 1965-1973 960 Barmen (seea.
