NAZIS ASSAULT FASCIST
Effective Lesson in Technique REWARD FOR GALLANTRY By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. LONDON, April 3. The ‘‘Chronicle’s” Munich correspondent says that the authorities have promised to investigate the assault by a group of Nazis on Mr Barclay Cecil, the young Englishman who, in assisting a German friend and his wife whom the Nazis treated with insolent brutality, even trying to tear off their clothes, was knocked unconscious before the police rescued the party. The ‘‘Chronicle” comments: ‘‘Such outrages are so common that they ate hardly news, but the present example of Fascist technique is noteworthy because the victim is a British Fascist who doubtless desired to examine the behaviour of his brethren at close quarters.
‘‘Nobody can rejoice that his gallant intervention was so rewarded, but we cannot repress the wish that every Fascist in Britain, with Sir Oswald Mosley at their head, would be repaid at Munich by a similar demonstration of the methods they seek to imitate.”
