In 1928 the " Büro Wilhelmstrasse " ( Wilhelmstrasse Office ) was created with the instrumental support of Alfred Wiener . It documented Nazi activities and issued anti-Nazi materials until 1933 , when Hitler came to power . During the Nazi era , the CV was forced to change its name several times . From 1936 onwards it was called " Jüdischer Central Verein " ( Jewish Central Association ) . After the Kristallnacht ( Night of Broken Glass or November Pogrom ) in 1938 the CV had to stop publishing its newspaper and the association was prohibited a short time later
