A store of bombs kept by the Hitlerists at Ludwigshafen, obviously for use in an attempted rising has been discovered by the authorities and confiscated. About 80 bombs are stated to have been seized.

At the same time, the authorities have got on the track of the Hitlerist spies in the police force. Two police lieutenants have been arrested and will be put on trial on a charge of high treason. It is stated that there is evidence against them that they handed the Nazis confidential police plans which had been drawn up for the purpose of assuring order on Sunday, when the presidential elections take place, and a list of the places where the police keep their stores of arms.
