Saturday, 30 November 1929

Berlin:  

As expected, the Reichstag rejects the Liberty Law*.  Nevertheless, German law requires that the measure also be submitted to a public referendum, which will be held December 22.  The Liberty Law didn’t even get the votes of all the members of the political parties that supported it.  The vote was actually conducted in sections, based on the provisions of the measure itself, but none of the votes was close, with the proposal failing by margins such as 318-82 and 312-80 (with some abstentions). 

Coblenz, Germany:  

Ten years after occupying it under the terms ending the World War, French forces complete their pullout from Coblenz, to great celebrations by the townspeople.  At the same time, in Aachen, Belgian troops that had been occupying that place since the World War evacuate.
