Stresemann's Coalition Cabi.
net Resigns-Premier May
Be Dictator.
BY Associated Press.


Berlin, OF. 4.-With the retirement
Of Chancellor Stresemann's coalition
cabinet, there is talk of the establish
ment of a civilian dictator supported
by martial law. DIR. Stresemann him.
self is spoken of in some quarters as
well fitted to take over such an Of
Monies and finances. Meanwhile he
has been invited by President Ebert
to form another ministry.
The resignation Of the cabinet came
last night after the four socialist
members had withdrawn following
posed by the chancellor on the eight
hour law.
The chancellor received the German
editors about midnight. to whom he
reviewed the events leading up to the
retirement of his ministry.
It is noteworthy that although cab.
met members among themselves were
in full accord on all issues. this con-
currence OF opinion was lacking In
the individual parties whom the min
isters represented.
The chancellor proposed that he
have a smaller cabinet, as he is not
longer obliged to consider the par
tisan wishes OF each party, as was the
case in the retiring ministry. This
statement Is construed as indicating
that Herr Stresemann wishes to con-
struct a cabinet that will represent
a closely co.ordnated equipped with
extraordinary powers.

Special Dispatch to The Omaha Bee.
Lincoln, Oct. 4.-Sherfff r. o.
Koenig of Gering. Neb.. has lost his
faith in human nature. Conrad De-
bus. parole violator whom he was
returning from scottsbluff, is the
cause.
Several days ago Koenig set out
with Debus. who is wanted in Lin
coin on a charge of passing bad
checks, to drive to this city. Rains
forced him TO leave his car in Grand
Island and continue the journey by
train. So docile was Debus in his
behavior that Koenlg gave him a
great deal of freedom. even permit
ting him to wander the Grand Island
streets without supervision.
Arrived in Lincoln, Debus ex-
pressed a desire to spend the night
at the home OF relatives. Koenig
acquiessed and made an appoint
ment with the parole violator for the
morning.
At the appointed time Koenig ap-
peared but not with Debus. The
trusting sheriff waited patiently, but
no penitent lawbreaker turned up to
Justify his faith in human nature.
When noon came Grand Island po-
lice notified State Law Enforcement
Officer Carroll that Debus was a re-
cent arrival at jail. where he had
been trying TO collect money wired
him from Scottsbluff by his father.
According to the message. Debus had
"bummed" his way TO Grand Island
TO pick up the automobile which the
sheriff had abandoned.
officers were unable TO state wheth-
er or not Debus had planned TO bring
IL In TO the sheriff at Lincoln. but
they have n pretty firm conviction
that Koenfes ward had other de-
signs on his escorts property.
Debus was paroled some time ago
after spending some time in the pen
itentiary on a charge of auto theft.

American Ambassadors Tender
Resignation to President
Harvey and Child Say ''Press-

mands They Give
Up Posts.
BY Universal Service.

Washington, Oct. 4.-The resigna-
tions of Col. George Harvey, ambas-
sador to Great Britain. and Richard

He also will be given leave of alb
sence until his resignation takes ef-
feet.
Offered to Harding.
Both designations originally were
offered to President Harding just
before his Alaskan trip. Mr.. Hard
ing very reluctantly agreed to ac-
cept them, and President Coolidge is
ratifying the pledge given by ht
predecessor. The reason given ip
each instance was that of pressing
personal business"
Colonel Harvey has been one OF
the most picturesque figures this
country has ever sent as its rep
resentative to the Court of st. James.
His utterances In London from time
to time have made him the center of
controversies and the object of at
tacks by congressman.
Officials who confirmed the Har-
vey resignation today stressed the
fact that the ambassadors relations
with President Coolidge and the State
department have been of the most
harmonious nature.
Ambassador Child, it was stated.
for many months has sought to free
himself from his European duties, az
his personal affairs require much
more attention than he is able to
give them from Rome.

While serving as ambassador to
Italy. Mr.. Child has had a part in
the framing of several postwar
treaties entered into by the nations
of Europe, notably the Lausanne
treaty with Turkey
The successors for Harvey and
Child have not been selected, an ad-
ministration spokesman stated today.
