The advent of Hitler, however, spelled the end of the Ullstein enterprise. In 1934 the family was forced to sell the colossal empire to a Nazi-backed consortium for one-fifth of its value and the company became known as the Deutscher Verlag. In 1938 Franz and Hermann immigrated to the U.S.; Rudolf went to England in 1939 and to the U.S. in 1943.
Another step in the "gleichsgeschaltung" or coordination of the German press was taken here today with the withdrawal of the Ullstein family control from the Ullstein Publishing Company, the largest publishing concern in Germany. The Ullstein firm not only published four daily papers, a number of weekly papers and a group of monthly magazines, but also published books, including the works of Feuchtwanger and Remarque, and ran a travel bureau besides. Franz Ullstein remains on the governing board of the concern with eight Aryan colleagues and Karl Ullstein will be one of the five executive directors of the concern, the other four being Aryans.
