Publications:

The Intematlonal Newsletter Is Circulated each month to all the sections. Written by the In­ternational secretary General it provides current or forthcoming information regarding IPA wond events, for publication in the National journals. Also the News­letter informs the sections of any amendments or additions to names, addresses. telephone and fox numbers of National Executive Committees In order that all sections may be kept up to date.

INTRODUCTION

The 'Information Guide - World Edition' of the international Po­lice AssoCiation has now been in use for a year. This Information Guide was an attempt of the PEa to provide the sectlons with im· portant information for the daity work. As we have had no com· plaints about the first Guide, we assume that it has been of some value to you in your IPA work. It has always been the intention of the PEa to assist you with the important work in the sections, because without well·functioning sections there would not be any IPA at all. The PEB therefore herewith presents you with the second edition of this Information Guide. We are aware of the fact that It is not yet perfect, but we need your assistance 10 im· prove it.

We therefore would like to request you again: please, let us know your ideas and your wishes concerning the contents of this book­let. Any remarks you might have are Important to us. We also ask you to inform our International Secretary General regarding all the changes within the sections without delay, 10 enable him to keep the Guide up-to-date. With your help we can still Improve this Information Guide.

I wish you a happy and succesfu11989 and I am looking forward to your reactions to this new edition of our informallon Guide.

Vor dClll Zweiten Wellkrieg. als ich ein sc hr jungcr Mann war, hattc ich cille Rei hc van Brieffrcunden in anderen Uindern. !ch kam 1936 zur Poliz.ei, und nls der Krieg aus­brauch, gingen meine europiiischen Kontakte verlorcn. Als sich die Dinge nnch dem Krieg wieder nor­mnlisierten, nahm ieh Kontakt zu Polizislen in andercn Undern nuf, IIlcist in Holland , Belgien, Norwe­gen, Dfinemark, Deutschland und Frankre ich. Das fUhrte recht bald loll cillcm Sch neebn lleffek t, und ich bekam sogar einen Brieffreund in G h'lIla, dllS gCflldc seine Unabhiln­gikeit erhallen lmlte. Es zeigle :oich schne ll, dal3 das BedUrfnis nach ei­ner Organisation bcstand, die siclt auswachsen kBnnte zu etwas, das zumindest im Nachk riegs·Europa wi rklich gebraucht wurde. Anderc Freunde auf dem Festiand, vor a l­lem in Holland und Bclgien, stimm­ten meinem Vorschlag ZU, wollten jedoch, daB ich die Initi<l tivc ergrif· fe. Ich hatle Briefe und Artikel ge­schrieben, die in Pol izeizei tschrif· ten publiziert worden: waren, die :Iber andere Thelllen behandelten. Darum sehrieb ieh inl Simmer 1949 e iuen Artikc l, der in der "Police Review" vnm 12. August 1949 vcr· 6rfen tlicht wurdc, mit dcm Titel .. Internntionale Polizei-Freund­seltaft". Da ich an e ine r, positiven Aufnahme zwcifelte, sch rieb ich unter dem Pseudonym "A YTEE". Die Rea ktion war erstaunlieh, KOr­be von Briefen wurden vom I-I er­ausgeber an mich weitergelcitet. Nachdcm ieh al1es eingehend ge· lesen hntte, schrieb ich cinen Brief an den Herausgcber der "Police Review", der am 2. September 1949 puhliziert wurde, aber diesmal mit meinem e igcncn Nnmen und mei­ner Adrcsse und mit der Bitle urn wcitcre Kontaktc, wobei ieh auch die positiven Renklionen aul mei· nen Artikel erwl1 hnte.

Es wu rde besehlossen, im Ok­lober 1949 in' Bishopsgate in Lon­don ein Treffen zu organisieren. Ungefl1hr 20 Leute ersch iencn,

aber die mcisten kamcn aus der Umgebung von London. Zwei der Anwcsendcn schicne n das ga nloe Konzept abzulchncn, und ich ent­deckle ba ld, daB sie die "Police Federat ion" vertraten , unsere Briti· sche Polizeigewerkschafl. Sie woll­ten nicht helfen und wurden gebc· len, die Zusammenkunft zu verlas­sen, damit dicjenigcn, die sell r wohl interessiert waren, fortfahren konn· ten. Wir kamen iiberei n, daB am I. Januar 1950 die Ak liviUiten an­fangcn und die Aufnll hmc von Mit­gtiedern beginnen sollte.

Es war rncine Rollc, UHS W,Ichs\U1ll ucr IPA nicht nu r in meinem eigenen Land , sondern auch in anderen Uindern voranzu­treiben. !ch gesta ltete das Emblem und entwa rf die erste Satzung und die GcschMlsordnung der IPA. Mit der fina nziellen UnlerstUlzung eini­ger der ersten wen igen Mitglieder wurdcn Handloellel und Anmelde­formularc gcdruckt und vc rtci lt. Die IPA wuchs langsam, es gingen mehr als 2'12 Jahre vorbei, bis die erstclI 100 Mitgl ieder beigetreten waren. Wir c rdaclHen e in System, bei dem interessierte Leule in an­deren Utndern als assoziierte Mit­gliedcr der Brilischen Sektion bei· treten konn ten, bis es genUgend

Mitglieder in ihrem e igenen Land gab, um einc eigenc Nationale Sek­lion bilden zu kOnncn. Einige der e rsten Mitglieder vom Festla nd kamen aUs Holland; B"e·lgier,Nor­wegen, Frank re ich, Irland und Deutschtand. In den ersten Gr(in­dungstage n gab es keinen gcwllht­ten Vorsland, und es war not wen­dig, Organisatoren in vCl'schicdc­nen Teilen GroBbri tanniens e inzu­selzen.

Ich erinnere mieh, daB ich eine groBe Wandkarle kaufte und sic· in sieben Regionen aufteil le: Schott· land war Nr. I, Nord irland Nr. 2. Nordengland Nr. 3, Wales Nr. 4, Midlands Nr. 5, London und die Home Counties Nr. 6, SlId-West­England Nr. 7. Kune Zeit sp!lter besuchte icll, manchmal allcin, manchmal mil einer I-Iandvoll an­derer Mitglieder verschiedene Zentren, wie z. B. York, Binn ing­ham, Cardiff, Edingbu rgh, Sout­hamp ton, London usw., um loka le Komitees zu organ isieren. Diese frUhen Tage waren krilisch, aber wir hallen das G llIck, einige der be­Slen Mftnner zu wilhlen, die wir Oberhaupt hiillen aussuchcn kBn­nen - Pioniere, die Teams Zllsam­mcnstelltcn unu <IUS dcr Britischcn Sektion eine dynamische Organi­sation machten .

Zu I-Iause haHe ich meine ci­gcnen Sorgen - mein t hief Con­slabel beorderte mich ins Hnupt­quartier und versueh te alles mOg­liehe, mieh van weiteren Sehritten abzuhahen -, er drohte mir sogar mit Disziplinarstrafen. Die Sllche lag mir zu sehr am Herzen, als daB ich hatte nachgebcn kOnnen, und ich wurde mit Argusaugen beob­lichte t - und mul3te auf e inem schr dUnnen Sei l balanciere'n. Es ka m noch schlimmcr. Das Inhen ministe­rium lieB unter den Chief Consta­bles eine "Top-secre l"·Anweisung zirkulieren, um die IPA·Enlwiek­lung zu e rschweren un~ Senior Of­ficers daran zu hindern, der IPA beizutreten. Ein bekannles Londo-

ner Abendblatt verOffentlichte so­gar einen kurzen Arlikel Uber die IPA, wodn suggeriert wurde, daB, weil das Wort "International" im Namen unserer Organisation VOT­

kam, sic von Kommun isten inspi­riert sein mUBte. N,IlUrlich verloren wir ein paar Milglieder, aber wi r gewannen noch yid mehr, und bald konnten wir eine nationale Tagung einberuren, um dne Konstitution anzunehmen und einen Nntionnlen Vorstand zu wtlhlen. Wir tr<lfen uns im DienSlraum eines l3ahnpolizi­sten unler dem Waterloo I3llhn hof und wtlhlten unseren erstcn Priisi· denlen: Leslie Gordon Baker, ein Chief Superintendent bei der Poli­zei in Kent. Er war schon :tlter und sehr gebildet. undo er gab uns Selbstvcrttaucn. Ich erinnere mich an seine Wone, £l Is er die Tagung abschloB: "Dies ist unser erstes Trdfen . es muBte jedoch im Unter­grund staltfinden - das nlichste Mal wird es in einem Polizciprasidium sein." So geschah es dann auch. und zwar in einem Metropolitan Section Haus. PrHsident Baker hat­le spiHer bei unscrem ersten Welt­kongreB den Vorsitz.

Wir slclltcn cine Akte auf, die wir unscre Satzung und unsere Ge­schiiftsordnung nannten. und sie wurden Modelt fUT die nachfolgen. den Sektionen. In dieser Akte W<lr festge tegt, d<lB bis zu eincm inter· n<ltionaten Trenen die Britische Sektion £lIs filh rendes Organ fun· gieren wU rdc, und dem stimmten die Mitglieder vom Festland brief· lich zu.

So weit, so gut. Jelzt muBlen wir wie Missionare in die Wett hin· aus. 1952 ging eine Gruppe von bri­tischen IPA·Mitgliedern nach Holland und trafsich dort mil IPA­Mitgliedern in Den Hang, und wir verbrachten eine wunderbare Zeit, wurden bei Pionieren unlerge· bracht und zu Besichtigungen und AusnUgen milgenommen. Wir Ira· fen den Chef der Polizei, der damil einverSlanden war, daB wir in sei· nem Polizeiprasidium zusnmmen· kamen. Dort umriB ich Zweck und Ziele der IPA. und ich bnl um Handzeichen, urn beurteilen zu kannen, wer fUr die Bildung einer HolHindischen Sektion war - das waren lOO Prozent. !ch schlug vor. dn vorltlufiges Komilee zu wll.h]en, urn eine eigenc Seklion zu grUnden. und tals!lchlich leilele icll die Wah!. Anfang Januar 1953 war die HoU!lndische Sektion arbeitsflthig.

Einen Monnt spiitcr ging eine Gruppe lion hollandischen IPA· Mitgliedern nach Antwerpen, urn slch mit einer belgischen Gruppe zu tTeffen. und so wurde die 3. Natio­nale Sektion gegriindet. Inzwischen singen nndere britische IPA-Mil­gl icdeT nach Norwegen. Frankreich und Deulschln nd und verbreileten so die SiJat unter den IPA-Mitglie­dern jener Ulnder'. Es war allge· mein beschlossen worden, daB die Britische Sektion £lIs exekutive Karperschaft fungieren wUrde, bis sieben Sektionen gegriindct wilren. Die Britische Sektion bereilete die Organisation des erslen internatio· nalen Kongresses vor. aber wir

wurden von Frankreich geschlagen. das im September 1953 die 4. Na­tionale Seklion gegrOndet hatte -dort gab es grtlBcren Komf.ort und vor !lUem die offizielle Urherstut­zung der Autori@en. Es wJrde be­sch lossen, den ersten WeltkongrcB in Paris im September 1955 abzu­halten. Norwegen hatle sich im

. April 1954 angesch losscn, die Schweiz im Mai 1954, Deutschland im Mfirz 1955. !

Der erste WellkOngreB!rand in der Prafektur in Paris im Seplem­ber 1955 statt, und sieben ISeklio­nen wnren vertreten, w1ihrend eine neue Sekli'oh 'sich uns· gerade""'an:­schloB - nllmlich Irland. Der Prlisi­denl der Britischen Sektion, Leslie Gordon Baker, hatte den Vorsitz bei den Arbeitssitzungen, und wir hatten das GIUck, daB ei ner der Pioniere der Deutschen Sektion, Teddy Mommsen, als Dolmetscher auflrat. Die schwersle Artki l war der Entwurf und die An nahme der ersten I nlernationalen Statuten. Seh r zum Erstaunen der FranzO­sischen Scktion halte P{lIsident Baker sich an den Generaldirek tor deT Municipal Police, An4r6 Ro­ches, hinsicht lich einer Nomin ic­rung als Internalionaler P}lisidcnt gewandt.

Die Organisation wuchs jetzt, und ieh arbeitele immer noch so­wohl als Generalsekreliir der Briti­sehen Scktion, wie aueh lIls Inter­nationalcr GeneralsehcWr. !ch ar­beilcte immer bci mir zu Huuse, in meiner eigenen Zeit und mil mei­ner eigenen trflgbflTen Schreibma­schine. leh besaB eine Basis-Bilra­ausstauung: ein pllflr Aklenordner, Gummistcmpcl und eine billigc EinriehlUng.

Jeder Delegation wurde ein per. {ekt die Sprache beherrschender Polizeischii ler beigegeben. Den Hohepunkt bildete die EnthiilJung eines DenkmaJs fur die IPA vor der Polizeidirektion in Brasov. Beim Galaabend nahmen nicht nur der Internationale Prisident Michael Odysseos, son. dern auch hOchstrangige Beamten der rumanischen Polizei und weitere 400 Gaste teil. Mit Verwunderung nahmen wir zur Kenntnis, class die rumanische Sektion zwischenzeidich 38.000 Mitglieder Uhlen soil. was bedeuten wiirde, class nicht mehr Osterreich, sondem Ruminien die zweitmeisten Mitglieder hat.

A PERSONAL HISTORY

by ARTHUR TROOP. REM.

(FOUNDER OF I.P.A.)

My sincere thanks to all the pioneers who gave me their help In the early days. Sadly, many are no longer with us.

To Alan Carter, for his continued encouragement, and to the P.E.B. members for their loyalty over the years.

Most especially, to Marjorie, for her love and support over the course of nearly sixty years of marriage and fifty years of The International Police Association.
