The Public Prosecutor has appeal against the verdict of the Magd burg Court given on December sentencing the editor of a provi cial newspaper to three months prisonment for libelling Presidex: t Chert, owing to the finding of the Court' that President Chert did urge munition workers to hold out dari the 1918 strike and therefore juridically should be committed for high treason.
The Nationalist and anti-Reput jean papers are making politic out of the verdict and de-ug that Herr Chert resign the Presidency.
A significant sequel occurred ti Jday when the Vice-Chancellor, JJarres, Dr. Stresemann and' six other members of the Cabinet called upon the President and handed him a resolution expressing complete confidence in him.—Reuter.
