(C. E-Ilaval) ' (By Guardian's Special Wire) ~ SAARBRUECKEN, Jan. 10.-Two thousand Nazis have been smuggled into the Saar territory and are spreading the "Brown Terror" among those opposed to union oi their homeland with Germany, leaders oi the Saar United Social- lst-Communlst imnt charged to- night belore members oi the Inter- “ l Press. Max Braun. and P. Fordt, who have been directing the United Front campaign, claimed there were instances of a series oi ten-bristle acts that are being perpetrated on the eve cl the plebiscite. They siiirmed that ii’ the Saar. international police did not provide the United Front with adequate protection they were ready to "des- cend into the streets to delend the status quo to the limit o! their strength". ~ . Braun said the 2,000 Nazis had been brought into the Saar during the past lew days under various disguised and that they were under the command oi Hitlerlte blackshirt Schultz Staflel guards who were directing the alleged terror. _ Lists Terroristio Acts Charges to this eilect were pub- lished at length today in the v k- stimrne, organ oi the Sociahst party. In an editorial covering the largest part oi the lrcnt page, the newspaper gave a list oi alleged terroristic acts and called ior action. "While we are writing," the news- paper said, “a man is lying in the adjoining room whose gushed lace cannot be viewed without lright. He is a victim oi the brown rabble. This ‘cannot be supported any 1mg- er. We have had enough. "We cannot look on with our arms crossed while the brown beasts are let loose; "The world is a witness oi our reserve, the world is a witness oi our discipline and or our long-sui- lering patience belore this terror. But now we have had enough cl violence. We must intervene with all our iorce. The organs oi the League o1’ Nations shouldsee. to it that the light oi! a. people ior its existence does not tuminto a rarce or a street battle. This is our| warning ior the last time." Poster Causes Speculation For ‘the lirst time since Saar- landers began their embattled cam- paigning in connection with Sun- day's plebiscite, a huge yellow pos- ter appeared mystericusly tonight in the heart oi Saarbruecken, urg- ing the Saar to vote ior union with France. "France is a country oi irecdom," the poster proclaimed. "She will guarantee all the rights in the Saar." A startled, curious. crowd oi.’ spec- tators, unaccustomed to propaganda from this source, gathered about thc sign. No disorders occurred. but conjecture was rile as to the poster's origin, since the pro-French ele- ment has hitherto reiralned from campaigning oi this sort. The yel- low "phenonomen" was believed by some to have been put up by the Saar United Front. Others argued that it was a sly manoeuvre by the Nazis in an attempt to divert status quo voters to the side oi France and thus split the anti-Hitler vote to a greater degree. . From a reliable source it was learned. however. that the sign might have originated with a French rightist group. But the lact that an ordinary poster cl this kind should have created a stir was talk- an as an indication ol the prevailing uncertainty which surrounds the iorthcoming vote.
