Gottfried Feder (1883-1941) was a German engineer who was one of the four original founders of the NSDAP. It was his speech on economics which initially attracted Adolf Hitler to the party, and later he and Hitler drew up the 25 Points which became the abbreviated version of the party's policy. Feder served the NSDAP in parliament and as under-secretary at the ministry of economics until 1936, when he retired to become a professor at the Technische Hochschule in Berlin. He died in 1941.
