Libya:
Italian troops raise their flag over the city
of Murzuq, captured four days ago, in a ceremony attended by Libya’s colonial
governor and head of Italian military forces in Libya, Marshal Rodolfo
Graziani. Capture of the city is
considered important in Italy’s campaign to suppress resistance fighters in the
Fezzan area of southwestern Libya.
Italian forces also have captured the nearby town of Ubari.
New York:
Two-hundred communist agitators battle police in City
Hall Park. They are protesting the
recent death of a worker who was shot by police while picketing a fruit and
vegetable stand. A police force nearly
matching the size of the communist gathering is on guard. At a pre-arranged signal, demonstrators try to race through the police lines to mount the
city hall steps. That’s when police start
swinging.
