BULGARIAN HORROR
WHOLESALE EXECUTIONS.
VOLCANIC UPHEAVAL PREDICTED. (By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright.) (Australian and N.Z. Cable Association.) LONDON, April 30. Colonel Wedgwood and Messrs Mac Kinder and Malone, who have returned from Bulgaria, report that after the explosion in Sofia lorries left the prisons during the night taking batches of prisoners to the country to be shot. The Government which came into power through a series of murders, beginning with the assassination of Premier Stambendizky in 1923, had been guilty of ruthless tyranny, murdering its political opponents. Many thousands were tortured, strangled and pounded to death. This will surely arouse a volcanic upheaval. They urge the Anglo-American public to protest against executions and imprisonment without trial.
