Rural America Deals With A Nazi
(Received 2.30 p.m.) WEBSTER (Mass.), July IG. The German-American Bund leader, Fritz Kuhn, discovered rural America today, landing in gaol as a result. A policeman halted Kuhn and Count Anastase von Siatsky, leader of the White Russians in America, as the pair left a cafe and started to enter the count’s car. The policeman insisted that the count was too drunk to drive, and took them both to the police station, where it was agreed that Kuhn should drive. After starting the motor, Kuhn leaned out of the window and cursed the police, who promptly pulled him out and arrested him on charges of drunkenness and profanity. Kuhn was released after ho and the count had raised 54 dollars for bail. The local police chief, Mr John , Templeman, commented: “Kuhn was just another wise guy who thought this a ‘hick’ town where ho could stage one of them beer hall putsch things and bo a dictator.”
