- BERLIN, March 7—(AP)—Complaints were filed at the American embassy today by three Americans who said they had been mistreated by National Socialist police in uniform.
Nathaniel Wolff of Rochester, N. Y., said he had been beaten and carried to an apartment where he was held captive until a Nazi leader appeared and ordered his release. He was forced to sign a statement absolving the Nazis, he said, and then was ordered to leave Germany. He went to France.
Henry Sattler, of New York City, and Edwin Dakin, of Hannibal, Mo., reported that armed Nazis had forced their way into their apartments early in the morning and demanded explanations of anti-Nazi attitudes." - History Unfolded Contributor
