...barbaric act contrary to the laws of humanity and conscience", Adolph Hitler, der Fuhrer of the German Reich, will stand trial by a group of student advocates Wednesday night in the Lowell House Common Room. This act was the famous Putsch of June 30, by which at least 77 persons were put to death by the state, and will be tried by regular legal procedure with three students prosecuting, three defending, and five men connected with the University serving as judges...

Last week the Italian troops which marched away from Austria did not march far. Most went back to their...
Herr Apold waved his hands, spluttered. All Styria knew that A. M. G. had been behind the attempted Nazi Putsch. A few years ago A. M. G. used to back not the Nazis but the Heimwehr, private army of Austria's present Vice Chancellor, Prince Ernst Rüdiger von Starhemberg. It was doubtless Thyssen who caused A. M. G. to switch over to what, for the present at least, has proved the losing side. Reputedly last week it was the Heimwehr, furious at their former backer, who demanded that Chancellor Schuschnigg squeeze the 'Iron Mountain...
