ADOPTS ITALYS PLAN
Germany Is Now in the Grip Of a
Dictator.
New Premier Takes Drastic Measures
in Effort to Save His Country
From Ruin-May Seize
Great Fortunes.

Berlin, Aug. 23-ChanceIlor Strese-
mann called the reichstag party lead
ers to his Office here and announced
that he was taking dictatorial meas
urees to save Germany from ruin :
The party leaders pledged their con-
fidence in him by agreeing to permit
Herr Stresemann to carry out his die
tatorial measures without consulting
the reichstag. This is legal under par
agraph 48 Of the constitution of Wei
mar, which places in the hands Of
the president in the most stringent
times the fullest power necessary for
restoring national order. The presi-
dent and chancellor are authorized to
enforce any measures they may de-
cree without consulting the cabinet or
reichstag Chancellor Stresemann de-
cided on the dictatorship after several
conferences with President Ebert.
"This is the last parliamentary cab
met in Germany" said Herr Strese-
mann to the political leaders. after
us there can be only violence"
Herr Stresemann announced his
first measure will be one designated
to obtain about $1o0,O00,0OO of the i'm
mense sums of foreign money which
German magnates are hiding, through
voluntary contributions" Everybody
will have to take an oath as to his
holdings of foreign currency and false
returns will be punished severely and
by confscation of property.
