Tetens, Friedrich Tete Harens, 1899-1976.

Biographical note: German emigre political journalist and pamphleteer.

Tetens was born in Berlin and lived in nearby Caputh. In 1927 as editor of "Deutschen Tabak-Zeitung" (a trade publication for the German tobacco industry) in Eberswalde, Tetens accused the Reemtsma Zigarettenfabriken (based in Hamburg-Altona) and its proprietor Philipp F. Reemtsma of political corruption. He fell into political difficulty with the Nazi regime in 1933 on account of continued charges against the "tobacco trust", a case that he pursued until into the 1950s. After being held in the Oranienburg concentration camp and in prison in Potsdam, he fled to Switzerland in 1934.
