Criticism Of American Police Cn Landing Of Big Airship Is Made - --r One Of Prominent Passengers RERUN, October 1G.-Scathinff criticism of the behavior of American police on the landing of the Graf Zeppelin is contained in an interview with Albert Grezcsinski, the Prussian minister of the interior and a passenger on the Zeppelin, made public here today. "Had occurrences like those I witnessed taken place in Prussia the police officials would have been fired the same day," he was quoted as saying. "On leaving the airship, which passengers were allowed to do only after hours of waiting, they had, to their surprise, to go through several unpleasant experiences. They were surrounded by a cordon of police and led into customs buildings as though they had been smugglers. Several times passengers were yanked and frequently pushed. In fact one of them was struck by a fist," he said. via nm VT1PD I IN EMPLOYMENT! Iturrnu-t Instructed That Work of Bureau Must lc Non-Political VICTORIA. Oct. 1C Hon. W. A.
