The Thuringian Parliament has to-day carried the no-confidence motion in the Hitlerist leader, Dr. Frick, the Minister of the Interior and of Education, thus putting an end to the Coalition Government dominated by Dr. Frick, and to the Hitlerist regime in the State. It is not believed likely that any of the other Parties will again consent to join in a coalition with the Hitlerists.

Hitler himself arrived last night in Weimar, the capital of Thuringia, on a special mission to try to persuade the People’s Party, which had broken away from the Coalition with the Hitlerists, to return to the old arrangement, but the People’s Party refused to alter its decision, and instructed its Deputies to vote in the Diet with the Opposition against Dr. Frick.
