NAZI OUTRAGES

Several Murders STATE POWER SEIZED GERMANY ALMOST DOMINATED By Telegraph—Copyright —Press Assn. BERLIN, Last Night. Continual Nazis outrages caused the authorities to call a halt to irresponsible outbursts and they are endeavouring to restore normality, although' it is doubtful when discipline can be reimposed. To-day’s shootings and raidings at Brunswick include the murder of a trades unionist and the murder of the publisher of a Socialist newspaper at Chemnitz. The Nazis have now seized power in such states ns arc not already under their control. Bavaria, Wurtemburg, and Saxony, four of the greatest after Prussia, arc dominated by a stroke of a pen. Only control of the Reichswehr is lacking to make Germany completely a Hitlerite State. While the police looked on. Nazis at Chemnitz arrested judge and high officials, and insultingly harangued the Mayor of Coblenz. The Nazis maltreated Madgeburg hotel guests and smashed the furniture. They attacked the Peruvian Consul nt Bremen. Nazis broke into a trade union building and wrecked the offices. Reports received state that the Nazis are torturing Communists. forcing them to swallow castor oil and thrashing them with steel rods, after which they are taken to the prison infirmaries. Herr Frick, Minister for the Interior. at a Nazi meeting, declared that the Communist Deputies will not be allowed to attend the Reichstag, but will be interned in concentration camps where they will do more useful work than in Parliament.

NAZIS MASTER MUNICH TO ENSURE LAW AND ORDER LONDON, Last Night. By midnight the Nazis were masters of Munich. Storm troops occupied the Bavarian Parliament after resistance by the police, who long tried to prevent the hoisting of the Swastika .The excitement was unabated at a late hour. Troops paraded the streets, followed by crowds. In the Odconsplatz Herr von Epp declared that they had come to ensure the maintenance of law and order, and asked the people’s support. The scene was illuminated by searchlights and torches.
