DICTATOR!
Franz von Papen and hit
"monocle" cabinet are now ruling
Germany by meant of a dictator
ship maintained through control of
the army and the police forces of
the nation. Military law has been
established to keep the people In
line but serious trouble i& expect-
ed momentarily.
Franz Bracht Takes Over
Duties As Dictator
Of German State
BERLIN. July 21. CP) Prus
sia's new dictatorship moved smooth
ly into action today, but under the
surface calm there was considerable
resentment at the imposition of mar
tial law by yesterday's presidential
decree.
Franz Bracht selected bv Chancel
lor von Papen to govern Primula dur
ing the period of the emergency, took
over his new duties and gave the re
main. nc Prussian ministers their
choice of methods by which the fed
eral government will remove them
from office.
As n result of the obstanacy of
Karl Severing, who refused to relin
ouish his tost as Prussian minister
of the- interior until threatened with
arrest, the entire Prussian cabinet is
to be deposed and the federal govern
ment will appoint office holders in
their places.
Formal proceedings were begun to
day against Albert. Urzesinski. social
ist head of the Prussian police, and
bin two assistants, liernhard Weiss
and Albert Heimansberg, who were
arrested yesterday after refusing to
submit to a federal order displacing
them. They are charged with resist
ing military authority.
Meantime the sentiment of the rest
of the country was lined up.
Bavaria has ioined Prussia's appeal
to the supreme court against the dic
tatorship. Saxony declined to join. In
the Essen municipal council the so
cial democratic bloc refused to sanc
tion leave of absence for Herr Bracht,
who is lord mayor of Essen, on the
grounds that he is indispensible to the
city and cannot be spared to serve
asdictator for Prussia.
The minreme court announced that
a hearing on the appeal had been set
for Saturday.
Desnitn martial law. however, two
men were- killed nnd a number were
injured in political riots last nignr. in
southwestern Berlin police fired on a
iv.iTimiin.Rt cm nn. killing one and
wounding several. In Saxony another
communist was killed wnen ponce
broke up a riot between communists
nd national socialists.
This afternoon General fierd von
Rnndstedt. in charge of the execu
tion of martial law, issued a warning
that imprisonment awaited those sus
pected of any crime committed with
Ltlinl itMnnni. rnrrvins arms without
a permit, or concealing arms when be
ing searched. The order forbade a
numler of communist meetings sched
uled for today and tomorrow.

Snapping Story
HOSKINS. Neb., July 21. (U.R
William Brucke, farmer living near
here, has a turtle story that puts all
fish stories in the snade.
Brucke had a flock of prize chick
ens and two hound dogs. Snapping
turtles from a nearby creek have been
raiding his chicken yard and dragging
oft the chickens, so tne uogs were
tan Hit to euard the nens.
The oldest dog waylaid a snapping
turtle. There was a tierce tignt,
Brucke came upon the scene just in
time to save the dog's life. The turtle
had clamped onto the hound's nose.
The farmer cut off the turtle's head.
Brucke started to tbe field again,
only to be stopped by a renewed howl
ing of one of his hounds. He found the
head of the slain turtle had clamped
the ear of his second hound. Again he
sided in with bis dog and started for
the field.
A chicken's squawk brought him
to the scene. A curious hen had ven
tured too close to the head of the
snapping turtle- and the same turtle
head had caught the chicken at the
throat.
