Hitler Over All
German Socialists Proscribed MEMBERS OF REICHSTAG EXPELLED United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright. BERLIN, June 22. The Government lias prohibited the Socialist Party in a precisely similar manner to the banning of the Nazis iu Austria. Two hundred and twenty Socialist members of tho Reichstag, who polled soven million votes in March, and also members of the Federal parliaments and municipal councils, are forbidden to sit and Uieir salaries aro stopped. Party meetings aro prohibited. Newspapers and other publications arc barrod, and party funds aro confiscated. State employees are forbidden to belong to the Socialist party.
The Government alleges that the Socialists have committed high treason. Its leaders have been organising the fight against Hitlerism from Prague and the Party therefore deserves no better treatment than the Communists. “Revolution Has Not Yet Ended’’ Received Friday, 9.5 p.m. BERLIN, Juno 23.

It will take measures against black Catholic reactions the samo as other typos of reaction.” As an example of tho desperation to which the constant night raids arc driving the Socialists, when six storm troopers entered the house of the trade uniou leader, Johann Seiausse, his son Anton, with tho desperate idea of protecting his parents, fired down the stairs, killing two storm troopers.

Anton was later hunted down and arrested. His mother was also arrosted and his father was found hanged. A Warning- From Rome Received Friday, 9.50 p.m. BERLIN, June 22.
