An attempt was made by members of the antisemitic Swastika Organisation to cause a disturbance during the annual march which took place to-day to the grave of Theodore Herzl, the founder of the Zionist Organisation on the anniversary of his death. The police intervened in time, however, and prevented any disorder. No arrests were made.

The procession was very large and imposing and was joined by the group of members of the Palestine Maccabee Sports Organisation who are now on a motor-cycle trip through Europe.
