BLOODSHED IN BERLIN.
rOLITICAL STREET FIGHTS.
COMMUNISTS AND FASCISTS. GROWING CASUALTY LIST. By Telegraph—Press Association— Copyright. (Received February 8, 5.5 p.m.) BERLIN. Feb. 1. The violence of political street fights in Berlin is increasing and discussion rapidly disappearing in favour of revolvers, knives and truncheons.
Since January 1 nine people have been killed and at least 500 wounded, chiefly as a result of encounters between Fascists and Communists for' dominance in the streets.
Tho police blame the extremist press of both sides for incitement to violence and several newspapers have been suppressed. It is very rare for any political demonstrations to end without bloodshed.
