Bracci in charge. Berlin, July 3 (INS) Chancellor Adolf Hitler closed the books today on the "rebellion" which he crushed Saturday with an iron hand. The Chancellor ordered cessation of all future reprisals against those who opposed his rule in an outbreak of violence and death that held Germany in terror for 48 hours. This was interpreted to mean that there would be no more executions. How many already have been executed was still not definitely known.

It was also taken to mean that Vice Chancellor Franz Von Papen would not be further molested or punished for his reputed opposition to Nazi policies. It was interpreted by some as an olive branch of mercy held out 'iy the Chancellor after his ruthless punishment of thc men of hi3 own ranks, the storm troopers, including his one-time closest friend Capt. Ernst Roehni, who plotted to overthrow his regime. Thc intervention of President Von Ilindenburg was regarded as having saved Von Papen from the cabinet, if not more drastic punishment. Von Papen, a former Chancellor, long has been an intimate friend of thc warrior President.

Although denied in government circles, it was authentically reported that Ilindenburg yesterday had demanded that Von Papen be protected and had made the Reich-swehr, or government troops, responsible for his safety. After three days under "protective surveillance" Von Papen was given hi3 l. Coroner W. J.

A short time after the stick-up, Chief of Police George Morlet, of New Eagle, arrested Tony Rcnny as the highway robber and lodged him in the New Eagle jail. At a hearing before Justice of thc Peace Paul Berry, Rcnny was ordered held for court on a charge of highway robbery. He is now in thc county jail. Renny is alleged to have held up the Courtney man at about 11:30, along Route 22, just outside the borough.

His loot was one dollar, all the man had on his person at the time. When picked up by Chief Morlet the youth explained that it wa3 his first offense and that he needed the money to help him reach his home in the cast. Cov.
