Lola Schneider, who was beaten up by Nazis in Munich ten days ago, died here today as a result of the injuries she sustained at that time. Mrs. Schneider had been seeking to find some trace of her husband who had been taken prisoner by the Nazis several weeks ago but without success. Finally, she was informed at the Munich police station that her husband had died suddenly from unknown causes. As she was leaving the station, Mrs. Schneider was attacked by a gang of Nazis and given a brutal beating. She was taken to a hospital, but fearing to remain there, escaped to Poland where she died from the shock and from her injuries.
