RETAILERS ARE READY TO BUY, KLEIN ASSERTS Large Scale Purchasing to Replenish Stocks Seen in Near Future. By United Frees WASHINGTON, .March 30. Large .scale buying by retailers In the near future to replenish stocks depleted during the depression is foreseen by Dr. Juliuß Klein, astistant secretary of commerce. This buying will tend to speed up business recovery by reviving production all along the line. Millions of dollars are expected to be thrown into the market by retail merchants of all classes. Klein, forrnery head of the departments bureau of foreign and domestic commerce, and long recognized as one of the country’s leading economists, outlined the present situation today. He pointed out, among other factors, that figures indicate lower store inventories now than at any time since the early part of 1922. There is one major difference in the situation then and now, however, while stocks were low at that time, the country’s previous period of depression, sales also were low. The sale index now, however, is very high. Buying to replenish stocks already is being noted in several lines, among them the shoe industry.

FIGHT DECREE BY HINDENBURG FOR DICTATOR Fascists and Reds Loud in Outcry Against Move to ‘Prevent Civil War.’ By United Frees BERLIN, March 30.—Belief that President Paul Von Hindenburg’s dictatorial decree for suppression of political violence was ‘‘the only means of avoiding open civil war” in Germany was expressed today in certain sections of the press. Opinion was sharply divided as to the wisdom of the government’s action in taking dictatorial measures against the recent increase of fighting and murders due to political issues, but both extremist parties— Fascists and Communists— at whom the action was directed were loud in expressions of disapproval. Communist members of the reichstag petitioned Speaker Paul Loebe today to reconvene parliament immediately for the purpose of rescinding the dictatorial decree. The Fascists and Nationalists likewise have expressed their desire for reconvocation of the reichstag in an effort to force withdrawal of the decree, which enforces drastic penalties and regulations to prevent disturbances. The fascists also voted to ask President Von Hindenburg to dismiss his present advisers and to reconvene the reichstag, which is not scheduled to meet until next autumn, at once. They charged the decree was directed against the Steel Helmet, semi-military organization of Nationalists, as well as the Fascists, Aged Man Jailed By Times Rpecial FT. WAYNE, Ind., March 30.
