ATTACK ON TWO WHITI WOMEN
Australian Aboriginal Darwin, March 4. Two highly-respected white women were brutally attacked by an aboriginal yesterday. This is the worst) of a series of recent cases, and an intensive manhunt is now in progress. After a fierce fight with two women, one of whom went to the rescue of her neighbour, the aboriginal escaped. All the police in Darwin are scouring the scrub for the fugitive, and large numbers of townspeople are assisting. Feeling has reached fever heat, and it is openly stated that the police will have to battle to prevent the black from being lynched if he is captured.
