The decree, one OF the most

property and prohibited socialist
newspapers or socialist meetings.
The socialists hold 121 seats in the
Reichstag and many in state diets

The decree charged the socialists
with preparing for. "high treason"

leaders who fled to Prague, Czecho-

Chancellor Adolf Hitler.
Public employees and workers in
public plaffts were forbidden to
