Specifically in the new Cabinet constructed last week there is no minister, excepting Dr. Warmbold, who has ever held a Cabinet portfolio before; no representative of German labor or the trade unions; no member of either the Socialist Party or the Fascist Party, respectively largest and next-largest in the Reichstag. To cap the climax President von Hindenburg appointed as Germany's new Chancellor notorious Lieut.-Colonel Franz von Papen. English editors promptly splashed out the screamer EX-SPY BECOMES GERMAN CHANCELLOR...
