Clhshes in ...many districts resulted in eight hekilled, one in an aeroplahe, which ...was distributing pamphlets, w;hile there are numbers of wounded. .-..There Were 257 arrests. Herr Hitler, who has concluded a fiight arourid Germany, addressed a torch light meeting, guarded by picked storm troops. a Government manifesto appeals to everyone to vote. The six vital parties are the Socialists, the Nazis, the Communists, the Centrals, the Nationals and the People's party. The opinion is growing that the election will end in a stalemate. Dr. Bruening, in a final election

speech, declared that Herr von Papen's use of dietatorship class of eonstitution was a danger to the German people, who would not tolerate it for long. Disturbances have been numerous, btit have been soon checked as the cities are patrolled by police cars, armed with machine guns. Every public building is strOngly guarded. The latest estimate is that the Nazis will obtain 22 seats compared with 110 last Reich, the Nationalists, 45 against 42, other Reich parties, 25 against 106, the Socialists 140 against 136, the Centre Party, 72 against 69, the State Party, 10 against 16, and the Communists 72 against 78.
