I recently purchased this press photo of Joseph Goebbels and Dr. Robert Ley. Can anyone translate what the writing is on the back.

Thanks,

Translation reads

"Reichs minister Dr Goebbels recieves workers, delegations and the winners of the Reichs Jobs score" (Some sort of point scoring accumaltion)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the Hotel Kaiserhof on the 30th April Reichs Minister Dr Goebbels recieved together with the Riechs organisation leader Dr Ley and Reichs Youth leader Baldur V. Schirach the representative of the Workers delegation from the Reich and 35 winners of the Reichs Job Score.

Reichs minister Dr.Goebbels greeted a Worker"

Reich = Empire

Not 100% sure what the Reichsberufwettkampfes is perhaps someone could elaborate?

From Wikipedia:
The Reichsberufswettkampf (English: National Vocational Competition) was an annual vocational competition held in Nazi Germany as part of the Gleichschaltung of German society.
The competition was organised by the German Labor front with the aid of the Hitler Youth and the National Socialist German Students' League. It was held at the local, (Kreis), Gau and national (Reich) level, and was subdivided into numerous vocational and academic branches. Competitors were tested in the theory and practice of their profession, as well as in their adherence to Nazi ideology. Women were also tested in housekeeping . The winners were presented to Labour Front head Robert Ley and to Hitler in person, and could expect substantial professional advancement.
The number of competitors grew from some 500,000 in 1934 at the first competition to 3,500,000 in 1939. Students were admitted in 1935 and adults in 1938. The competition was suspended at the outbreak of World War II in 1939, with the exception of a wartime competition (Kriegsreichs-berufswettkampf) in 1944.

You probably already figured it out, but that's not Dr. Robert Ley, but "representative of the Workers delegation from the Reich" as indicated in the translation provided.

Thanks for all the help guys. I saw his name on the back and just assumed that it was him. I appreciate the information and translation.

I should have been more clear about this being a "press photo" I meant that this was a photo taken by the press given the description on the back. Not a press conference.
