i GERMAN PRESIDENT ISSUES DE-
j CREE TO SUPPRESS UPRIS-

Associated Press
Berlin, Aug. 30.—After a meeting of
the German cabinet Monday, President
Kbert issued a decree prohibiting
meetings, processions, demonstrations
and the publication of periodicals and
pamphlets likely to encourage sedi-
tious movements. The government
has proclaimed its intention to sup-
press with an iron hand and unre-
lenting severity all insurrections or at-
tempts to subvert public order.
t The proclamation admits that the
government has become gravely con-
cerned owing to the disintegration of
public morals in Germany, which fact,
it declares, threatens to ‘“undermine
the foundations of state and empire."
“In a time whan the nation's vital-
ity should be devoted to repairing the
moral, social and economic injuries
by war,” the proclamation

Chicago, Aug. 30.—Censorship of the

iidly in Chicago the past year and a

jinnis, acting chief censor of the Chi-

through the ordinance, Chicago’s act-
ing chief censor said. »
“That was quite a trick in some of
the downtown shows,” Miss McGinnis
observed. “Managers liked to make
it appear they had a very savory pic-
ture inside, and there the public
Hocked and were bitten. Poster adver-
tising of such picture houses is now
much better. Just a little while ago,
to illustrate, we passed a harmless
picture, featuring a well known star,
without a cut. .A little later people
began writing in to the censor board
asking why it allowed such a dreadful
