NAZI ATTACK

DISSOLUTION OF REICHSTAG.

WILL ESTABLISH DICTATORSHIP

(Times Service)

BERLIN, Aug. 30

Trie -Nazi organ “Volkisclier Blobachter,” bitterly attacks Chancellor Von Papen. It says that if his Cabinet dissolves the Reichstag, in order to enable it to continue governing, it will establish a pure military dictatorship, based on bayonets, without the support of the smallest section of the people.

Tlie correspondent says that the GovqrnmentV economic programme has caused a lively rise in prices on the Berlin Bourse. The bigness and boldness of the scheme by which the Von Papen Government, as with a wave of the hand, proposes to produce over two milliard marks, and to demobilise onethird of *he army of the unemployed appeals to the public imagination, which would sooner see a gallant gamble than inaction. Tlie Government believes that the turn in the tide of the crisis has come, and it considers that the psychological moment has arrived for a bold effort to revive confidence, stimulate industry, and combat unemployment.
