The Diet was dissolved by a Reich Government decree.
I was member of the Diet as long as it existed, until May 1933.
I was elected to the Diet in the same way as at every parliamentary election.
I joined the Party definitely in 1923 after having already been in sympathy with it before.
Although as a sailor I despised politics - for I loved my sailor's life and still love it today - conditions forced me to take up a definite attitude towards political problems.
