Two Jewish passers-by were seriously injured in a riot which occurred last night following a mass meeting held under the auspices of the League for Human Rights, at which the evacuation of the Rhineland was discussed.
Victor Bache, president of the League, addressed the meeting. He was interrupted, however, by a group of students who raised a tumult and threw a gas bomb into the audience. The police was called to remove the disturbers. When the meeting ended, a group of the Stahlhelm organization took to beating Jewish passersby.
