(SeaU j6-3w Von Hindenburg Becomes Virtual German Dictator Dissolves Reichstag with Apparent Support of Hitler Election to Ee Held Soon. Berlin, June 3. President I'aul von Hindenburg became virtual dic tator of Germany today with the apparent approval of Adolf IlitTCr and his stormy Nazis.

The dissolution, however, means that a general election will be man datory within 00 days. It was indi cated that emergency the date would be set by decree lor sometime late.to decide the matter. in July. (Such an election would give Hit ler his chance to make good the claim that the "fasc ists could contrnl the reichstag if a general election were held The last general election was in 1930 and the next normally would not come until 1934. but in recent state elections the Nazis prov ed they had a plurality in Prussia and elsewhere.) Face Eitter Campaigns. It is certain that when elections come. Germany, where the "sky's the limit" in such tests, will face one of the most bitter campaigns of her short republican history. It will mean life or death for many small parties and test the Nazi-communist counter claims. Meanwhile, the cabinet, which will never reach the present reich stag. continued its functions with the tacit approval of the Nazis, who have no member on it. Hitler told a political crowd last night he is ready to offer a coali tion with the powers behind the present cabinet on certain condi tions. Pleads for New Power.

General von Schleicher, new min ister of defense, hinted today that the recent ban of the Brut-ning gov ernment against the Hitler storm troops would soon be lifted. World Herald.
