Von Papen Dissolves Body
But not Until Lack of
Confidence! Voted
Confusing Situation has no
Parallel; Courts Must
Decide Rights
By LOUIS P. LOCHNER
Associated Press Staff
Correspondent
BERLIN, Sept. 12 (AP) A
defiant reichstag overwhelmingly
Toted non-confidence in the min
istry of Chancellor Franz Von
Papen today and thereby preci
pitated a confusing situation un
precedented in German parlia
mentary history.
Just before the vote was tak
en the chancellor tried to fore
stall it by deereelng dissolution
of the legislature. He was
thwarted by Hermann Wilbelm
Goering, reichstag speaker, and,
as a member of Adolf Hitler's na
tional socialist party, one of the
bitterest enemies of the Von Pa
pen regime.
After the members tha.d ex
pressed their lack of confidence
in the ministry 513 to 32, the
nazi speaker read the dissolution
decree. But he declared afterward
it was invalid because it was
signed by a defeated govern
ment. The ministry contended the
legislature was legally dissolved.
The courts must decide who Is
right.: The Von Papen ministry
will continue to function.
New Elections to be
Called in 60 Days
Interior Minister Baron Wil-
helm Von Gayl announced the
government intended to call new
elections within 60 days the
constitutionally specified time
and added this plan would be
carried out "unless serious dis
turbances of the public render
elections Inadvisable."
After one of the most exciting
days in recent German history one
fact outstanding; the Von Papen
cabinet, despite the vote of non-
confidence, held command of the
army and of the police.
The upset In the Reichstag
came before Chancellor Von Pa
pen had an opportunity to an
nounce the government's program
and policies. So the chancellor
went on the air to lay that pro
gram before the people.

the action of the army in routing

order prevailed in the bonus
camps and laws were being en
forced when the army took con

two lives have been taken," Sec
retary Hurley declared, "when
the police and civil authorities of

CONDEMNED BY
President Handled Situation
In "Regrettable" Manner,
Veterans Assert
Anti-bonus Forces Promise
Determined Fight on
Cash Payment
AUDITORIUM, Portland, Ore..
Sept. 12 )AP) A resolution
sharply condemning the president
for the use of troops in ousting
the bonus expeditionary forces
from Washington, D. C will be
fought through to the floor of the
American Legion c o n ve n 1 1 on,
members of the Pennsylvania del
egation asserted today.
Regardless of the action of the
Legion resolutions committee, the
Pennsylvania Legionnaires will
insist that the matter is opened
for discussion at a general conven
tion session.
Although both proponents and
opponents of resolutions which
would place the American Legion
on record in favor of immediate
payment of the bonus believe that
the organization will reverse its
stand of last year, a determined
fight is expected from the minor
ity, or anti-bonus, forces.
Omaha Commander
Leads Opposition
Leader of the anti-bonus senti
ment Is Sam Reynolds, a candi

past commander of the Omaha
Legion post.
Our attitude is best expressed

Reynolds reckons as his allies
the Missouri delegation, whleb is

NEW YORK, Sept. 12 (AP)
New York's new mayor, Joseph

today to retain tor 1C months the
toga which fell onto his shoulders
as a result of James J. Walker's
resignation.
Through a taxpayers suit
brought at McKee's suggestion, a
supreme court order was obtained
requiring the board of elections
to show cause why it should not
be restrained from holding a spe
cial mayoralty election November

The suit was filed In the name

is one subject on which I did not

"He told you that the soldiers
set fire to the humble homes of
these men," the secretary contin
ued, speaking of the bonus march
ers. "That Is not the fact. The
fires were set by the men them'
selves. No members of the army
would do that. All the fatalities
that occurred on the day of which

Gibbons a few minutes before
had referred to the "rough treat
