Frankfurter Slaying
Individual Vengeance Possible
(Received 10 a.m.) LONDON, February 6. The “Manchester Guardian’s” Geneva correspondent says the murd e r of the Nazi leader, Wilhelm is unique inasmuch as it is the first time since the Hitler regime that a Nazi has been assassinated by anybody but Nazis.
Gustloff, as Herr Hitler’s unofficial ambassador, had more power and irifluence in Switzerland than the official representative of Germany. The Socialist newspaper, “Trevail,” says the Government must take some responsibility, because of its refusal to expel Gustloff. The “Daily Telegraph” Berlin correspondent says Gei'man Jews regard organised reprisals as unlikely, owing to the presence of many foreigners in Germany for the Winter Olympiads, but the possibility of individual vengeance is not ignored.
