DECREES CANCELLED
IMPROVED POSITION IN GERMANY CHANCELLOR'S PACIFIC METHODS Press Asseeiation —By Telegraph—Copyright. BERLIN, December 21. (Received December 22, at 11 a.m.) General Von Schleicher’s effort to inaugurate a milder regime in Germany has begun by the publication of a Presidential decree cancelling most of the Von Papen Government’s repressive political measures. It is officially explained that the cancellation is due to the visible quietening of political passions, and the public are recommended to settle their political differences in a manner worthy of civilised people. PRISONERS RELEASED Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. BERLIN, December 21. (Received December 22, at noon.) About 15,000 political and other prisoners will be released at Christmas lime, under an amnesty Bill, which passed the Reichstag on a single vote. Any attempt to keep Nazi, Socialist, and Communist prisoners in the cells over the holidays would have Jed to a meeting of the Reichstag and a Christmas crisis.
