Papen and taking control of the Prussian police. The efficient Prussian •force and the regular army thus were united utjder the reich administration, and the bulk <>l Germany's armed forces passed into the Von Papen cabinet's hands. The Prussian government viewed the presidential decrees as violating the constitution and was exjiected to appeal to the supreme court. In any event, the governi ment’s move was certain to in--1 c t ease tension between the federal and state governments and strengthen the opposition of the socialist and catholic parties to the government. Von Papen obviously yielded to demands by Adolf Hitler, fascist leader, and Alfred Hugenberg. lead if of the nationalists, that the Prussian administration pass into the reich's hands in order to quell political riots. Riots have claimed ' 100 lives and thousands of injuries within the past month. The socialists and catcholics claimed that the Prussian police were able to control the situation. The riots were caused by the government's removal of the ban on 'uniformed political organizations, .chiefly Hitler's brown shirt army, lthey said. Appointment of the eommission,er was regarded as the most important political event in Germany since the adoption of the republican constitution in August, IBIS. Political’y. appointment of a reich's commissioner means that the junkers and military chiefs of the Von Papen cabinet will control 'every key position in Germany for .the first time since the revolution. The conservative triumph over 'democratic and socialist tendencies 'and the domination of the executive over the legislative branch of 'the government may be-attributed to the success of the fascist moveiment of Adolph Hitler and the inlability of parliaments to form a working majority.

Palermo university, minister of (education; Minister of Colonies de jBono; minister of air. Gen. Balbo; 'minister of war. Senator Gizzera; I minister of marine, Admiral Sirianini.
