DEMONSTRATION IN BRUNSWICK. NAZIS MALTREATED. STAHLHELMS ACT WITH COMMUNISTS. (UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATION —BY ELECTEIC TELEGRAPH- —COPYRIGHT.) (Received March 28, 8.5 p.m.) BRUNSWICK, March 28. The Nazi auxiliaries raided a guardhouse used by Stahlhelms and disarmed the Stahlhelm auxiliary police. They arrested several, including the leaders on suspicion of a counter-revolutionary plot, and took the names of hundreds of civilians. Herr Klagges, Nazi Minister for the Interior in Brunswick, alleges that the Stahlhelms have recently been enrolling members of the Reichsbanner and other forbidden organisations, and adds that to-day the movement assumed a mass chflrdctcri , Hundreds of former Reichsbanner men, with Socialists and Communists, marched to the guardhouse, protected by Stahlhelm auxiliaries amid continuous shouts of "Hail the freedom Front," "Hail the Red Front,' while excited crowds of Communists and Socialists near the guardhouse shouted threats against Herr Hitler and the Nazis. Moreover, with the Stahlhelms toleration, a Communist leader who has in recent weeks been in hiding ventured from his hiding place and took part in the demonstration. The Stahlhelms also maltreated young | Nazis. The Stahlhelm organisation is to the Nationalist party in Germany what the Storm Troops are to the Nazis, while the Reichsbanner —before it was disbanded as an illegal organisation—was the fighting wing of the Social Democrat party. Last year it lapked at one stage as if the Stahlhelm and Storm Troops might come into Conflict, but since the Nazis and Nationalists have been working together in power, their armies, too, have been co-operating.
