Metz, Apr. 28.
Ten persons were killed and many were wounded in rioting in the Saar district on the occasion of Herr Hitler's 50th birthday on April 20, French border reports said today.
The casualties occurred after the Reichswehr had been called out to suppress a demonstration by labourers protesting Germany's 60-hour week, the delayed reports brought by travellers said. The German troops charged the throng of labourers and opened fire, the travellers said. There also was an outbreak at the Saarbrucken beer hall and twenty persons were arrested, the travellers asserted.—Reuter.
