Anti-Semitic excesses have broken out in all German universities in Czecho-Slovakia. The situation is particularly acute in the Medicine Faculty and the Technicum. Incited by the German People’s Party, the students fell upon the Jewish students, beating them and wounding many. A number of the anti-Semitic attackers were also wounded. Police intervention was required to disperse the rioters.

The authorities have closed the Universities where the excesses occurred.
