According to the Daily Herald, Herr Julius Streicher, the fanatical Nazi anti-Jewish leader and organizer of the abortive boycott of last April, has just escaped assassination.
The news leaked out in Munich, it is stated. The Storm Troopers got to know of the plot but in spite of their precautions a volley of shots was fired at Herr Streicher’s car as he was motoring from Bamberg to Nuremberg on Monday night. The would-be assassins escaped under cover of darkness.
