BRITISHER ARRESTED
NAZIS CRITICISED ANTI-JEWISH POLICY. BETRAYED BY FRIEND. (Received 11 a.m.) MUNICH, August 13. For alleged criticism of the Government anti-Jewish policy, a London businessman, Gebhard Mosel, aged 35, who was born in Munich but is a naturalised Britisher, was arrested by agents of the political police. Mosel arrived in Munich on August 7 on a visit to his father. While he was visiting friends on August 10, the conversation turned on the Jewish question. Mr Mosel remarked to one of his friends, who was a Jew, that the present policy of Germany was incomprehensible to him. Denunciation by one of his friends led to Mr Mosel’s arrest. The British Vice-Consul was informed that the actual charge was of having made utterances against the Government. This is punishable under the law of December 20, 1934. The Consul was permitted to see Mr Mosel in the Neudech district prison, and arranged for the visit' of a lawyer.
