Answer:

Chancellor Hitler Acquires Emergency Powers

Chancellor Hitler complained that his government did not have majority support in parliament, and he won from President Hindenburg approval for another round of parliamentary elections. Hitler's lieutenant, Herman Goering, was put in charge of the police, and in late February came the fire at the parliament building set by Hitler's men but attributed to a Communist plot to make revolution. A good portion of the German people bought the story. Communists were arrested and taken away to prison. The new elections were held in the crisis atmosphere created by the parliament building fire, and the National Socialists won 43.9 percent of the vote.
