GROWING TENSION

.GERMANY'S NEIGHBORS NAZI TROUBLE-MAKING (Elec. Tel. Copyright—United Press Assn.) (The Times) (Received August 29, 3 p.m.) LONDON, Aug. 28. The Times’ Copenhagen correspondent reports that there is growing tension in South Jutland owing to the recent Nazi activities in the neighborhood of the Danish-German frontier. This was strongly emphasised at a private political meeting of all Danish partips. One speaker declared: “There is a feeling of August, 1914, in tho air. Though wo don’t fear trouble, we believe that Germany will attempt to recover her lost territory immediately she feels strong enough to face the oppositoin of the powers.” Leading Nazis make no secret that they desire the restoration of the 1864 frontier. German “Storm Troopers” marched through the streets of Flensburg singing of the coming reunion of the Tyrol and North Schleswig with tile Father* land.

Four Nazis in uniform crossed the frontier and walked the streets of Bergreuland insulting any who refused to salute them. Belgian gendarmes were called and escorted the Nazis across the frontier, but three hours later the Nazis returned, when a Nazi with a bottle of beer fractured the skull of one of the gendarmes. The gendarme is now in hospital. His assailant was arrested, hut the others escaped.
