Political Leaders in Free State of Danzig?

#1

Based on my sketchy knowledge about the Free State of Danzig, it was a League of Nations trust (or something like that) during 1919-1939. I was wondering who, if anyone, was in charge of government in Danzig, or was it just a Polish regional government.

The government was elected within the Free City. It ended up under the control of the Nazi party. It was more Nazi and anti-semitic than Germany,
