A hero’s welcome was given at the Berlin railway station today to Heinrich Zersaff, a Nazi student stabbed in a brawl in Czernowitz, Rumania, while cooperating with the anti-Semitic Iron Guard there as a Nazi agent.

Prince Schaumburg Lippe headed a Propaganda Ministry delegation of welcome. Speeches described Zersaff’s assailants as “Jewish Bolshevik elements” and the student was called a “victim of the fight for Nazi principles.”
