MADE
GERMAN DICTATOR
Reich Passes Measure De-
signed to Give Cabinet
Sweeping Powers.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN, October 13.-The reichs-
tag this afternoon adopted Chancellor
Stresemanns authorization bill CIV
ing him wide authority in debating
measures for economic reform
The bill was passed by a vote of 316
to "a, with seven members abstaining
from voting.
The coalition parties turned out in
their full strength for the bill, the
socialist party board having made
support of the bill obligatory upon
each of its reichstag members.
The German peoples party also
came to Chancellor Stresemanns sup
port with an almost full vote. A
number of the industrial leaders cast
affirmative ballots, but Hugo SHINES
abstained by casting blank ballot.
With only the nationalists and the
communists opposing the measure it
is believed now that the chancellor
VIII not encounter difficulties of an
obstructive nature among the coaIi-
t1on parties in opposition to his die
tatorial measures.
President Ebert on Thursday gave
Chancellor Stresemann authority to
dissolve the reichstag if the authori-
Zation bill did not pass, and to carry
out rehabilitation measures by decree
Independent of the parliament. The
bill required two-thirds majority. 1t
gives the government of the reich
authority to take, lin financial. eco
nomic and social spheres, the meas
ures which il deems necessary and
urgent, regardless of the rights spec
ified in the constitution of the reich" /"
The authorization, however, does not
extend to the regulations governing
the hours of labor or to decreases in
pensions allowances. The bill be-
comes law upon it's promulgation and
expires with the present cabinet, or
in any event by March 81 next.
