what german word meaning Administrative district leader, in english, was a title under hitler

[Postie]

Gauleiter

[IndieSinger]

Postie is absolutely correct. The word Gauleiter is very specific and still to this day refers only to "The head of a Nazi district". (Although on odd occasions it has been used in the English language as a rather cruel term for jobs-worthy and overbearing local authoritarian figures - http://www.rense.com/general28/heil.htm - ).
