BERLIN, July 4 0.NS0.-Vice
Chancellor Franz Won Papen, ar

when firing squads were moving
down alleged conspirators against
the Hitler government, dramati-

and demanded a police investiga-

Won Bose was killed by the spe-

well satisfied that the country
had returned to normalcy that he

his vacation plans.
In some quarters it was re-
