Note 149 — IV. GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF GERMAN LAW DURING THE NAZI PERIOD (continued 2)
Reading edition
Article 48, paragraph 2, reads—“Where public security and order are seriously disturbed or endangered within the Reich, the President of the Reich may take the measures necessary for their restoration, intervening in case of need with the help of armed forces. For this purpose he is permitted, for the time being, to abrogate either wholly or partially the fundamental rights laid down in articles 114, 115, 117, 118, 123, 124, and 153.”
The articles subject to temporary suspension are quoted in the footnote to the decree of 28 February 1933, the first decree reproduced in section B, above.
