Seven were injured at a meeting held here last night in order to protest against the German excesses. The meeting which was organized by Zionist Revisionists was held in the premises of the Sofia Bar Association.
The premises were attacked by Bulgarian National Socialists, who attempted to interrupt the meeting, throwing stones through the windows and breaking into the hall. The hooligans were eventually thrown out by those present at the meeting and driven off. They thereupon demonstrated in the streets and attempted to carry the attack into the district of Meitham, a Jewish quarter, where some windows were broken. Here, too, the Jews confronted their attackers and drove them off, leaving seven injured on both sides. The police intervened energetically, and eventually suppressed the disturbance.
