“The Berliner Tageblatt” reports that Nazi Auxiliary Troops penetrated the offices of the “Vorwaerts”, where Dr. Hur. the Reichstag Deputy was mishandled, being beaten and almost throttled. It was only on the arrival of the ordinary police that he was released.

The same issue also reports that the thoroughfare, Rathenauplatz in Zwickau, named after Walter Rathenau, was today renamed Wilhelmplatz.

“The Vossische Zeitung” reports from Detmold near Hanover, that Felix Fechenbach, editor of the Socialist “Volksblatt,” and a well-known Poale-Zionist, was dangerously injured by uniformed Nazis who managed to escape. Apart from this, the “Angriff,” published by the Nazis, reports that Nazi Auxiliary police are looking for Bernard Weiss, the ex-vice-president of the Berlin police, against whom the Nazis for so long directed a campaign of incitement. The “Angriff” adds that Weiss cannot be found.
