Berlin:
President Paul von Hindenberg files suit
against the newspaper Der Angriff
(The Attack), founded and published by nazi party leader Joseph Goebbels, for
an article published two days ago entitled, “Is Hindenberg still alive?” The article claimed that Hindenberg had not
voted against the Young Plan because “he always does what his Jewish and
Marxist advisers tell him to do,” and that “nobody should be under any
delusions concerning him.”
Paris:
Authorities seize three Italian communists
with explosives. Their papers outline a
plan to assassinate Italy’s delegation to the League of Nations at an upcoming
meeting in Geneva.
London:
Not four weeks after Great Britain restored
diplomatic relations with the Soviet Union (see Dec. 4), a New Year’s message
from the Communist International (Comintern) to workers in England is causing a
stir. The message appears in The Daily Worker, a new communist newspaper
in England, describing itself as “a new and powerful weapon in the hands of the
British working class.” This doesn’t sit
well with the British government, which remains wary of communist agitation
within its borders.
