YORK,
February
21:
(CP)
There
were
disorders
both
inside
and
outside
Madison
Square
Garden
last
night
in
connection
with
a
meeting
of
the
German-American
Bund,
an
organization
which
supports
Nazi
principles.
When
the
president,
Fritz
Kuhn,
rose
to
sneak,
a
black-haired
man,
later
identified
as
a
hotel
worker,
jumped
on
to
the
platform
and
endeavoured
to
stop
him.
Before
the
man
could
be
removed,
his
clothes
were
practically
torn
to
shreds
and
he
was
badly
beaten.
His
name
was
Isa-dore
Greenbaum.
Outside
on
the
streets,
the
police,
1500
strong,
had
some
difficulty
in
keeping
anti-Nazi
demonstrators
within
bounds
and
had
to
use
their
clubs
and
make
thirteen
arrests
in
doing
so.
It
is
estimated
that
20,000
persons
attended
the
meeting
and
that
there
were
100,000
outside
on
the
street
including
the
anti-Nazis
as
well
as
curious
onlookers.
During
the
meeting,
which
largely
took
the
form
of
a
rally
against
Jews
and
Communists,
the
names
of
President
Franklin
D.
Roosevelt
and
other
American
leaders
were
booed.
Chancellor
Adolf
Hitler
and
Premier
Benito
Mussolini
were
cheered.
The
demonstration,
which
filled
the
Garden
and
was
held
under
the
swastika,
denounced
international
Jewry,
some
members
of
the
United
States
cabinet
and
any
alliance
with
European
democracies
