The new Federal Council was sworn in on 17 December 1959 in Bern; from the left: German President Dr. Max Petitpierre (FDP, Political Department, to date), Paul Chaudet (FDP, Military, to date), Prof. Dr. Fritz T. Wahlen (BGB, Economics, to date), Dr. Jean Bourgknecht (KCVP, Finance and Customs, new), Dr. Willy Spuehler (SP, Post and Railway, new), Ludwig von Moos (KCVP, Justice and Police, new), Prof. Dr. Hans-Peter Tschudi (SPS, Internal Affairs, new) and Federal Chancellor Dr. Charles Oser. With the entry into government of a second SP representative, the government is composed of social democrats, conservatives, libertarians and peasants in a ratio of 2:2:2:1; the “magic formula” was invented.
