QUEST BY GESTAPO
UNKNOWN WORKMAN BEER HALL BOMBING DEATHROLL OF EIGHT (Reed. Nov. 16, 9 a-m.) LONDON, Nov. 15. The Copenhagen correspondent of The Times says that the German secret police have ascertained the existence of infernal machines capable of adjustment for explosion six months ahead. They are searching for a craftsman known to have worked in August in the Munich beer hall, where an explosion occurred on November 8 shortly afteT Herr Hitler had left the building. He went in and out for several days While reconstructing a pillar.
All the employees believed that this was in order, thinking it was under the proprietor’s orders. The workman vanished without presenting his bill. It subsequently was ascertained that nobody had solicited his services, but he is now believed to have left Germany.
A Berlin message quotes the German wireless, which to-day stated that the Munich death-roll was now eight.
