The administrative authorities yesterday closed down the printing plant of the “Volks Zeitung,” organ of the Bund.
The closing of the plant makes the further appearance of the paper impossible.
No reason was given for the action of the authorities, but it is believed that the closing was due to stringencies imposed by the censor, since the paper in recent weeks has appeared with a striking amount of blank space denoting material elided by the censor.
