BERLIN. December 2
'President Hindenhurg has signed a, decree promulgating the finance measures for which Chancellor Bruening found the impossibilty to obtain a Parliamentary majority. The Chancellor’s opponents regard the action as being dictatorial though legal. The Republication Constitution, however, provides that the President’s decree must be tabled in the Reichstag, and that it cannot be modified, but must be either accepted or rejected. If the decree is rejected the President must; withdraw it, which is out of the question, or the Reichstag must dissolve. President Hindenhurg and Chancellor Bruening, in risking a hostile Reichstag vote, relv upon the political parties fear of the Hitlerites. and also their realisation of the defeat of, the decree will endanger Parliamentary Government, and will render Fascist dictatorship possible. The Bremen Cabinet sat for eleven hours before coming to the decison to appeal to President Hindenhurg.
The decree covers twenty-six laws, forming a three years’ programme of financial and economic reforms.
