Rudolf Mosse, whose death was reported in Berlin today, did not die a natural death, but was murdered by Nazis, a person in whom credence can be placed, told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency today on his arrival from Berlin.
Mosse, according to this source, was dragged out from his home two weeks ago. Efforts of his family to locate him failed until finally the Nazis agreed to turn over his body to the family in a sealed coffin on condition that the coffin would not be opened. This the family agreed to do, as well as not divulge any of the circumstances attendant upon his death.
