Today -100: January 21, 1923: Of thyssens, free state executions, and ethnic cleansings


The French in the Ruhr are busily arresting coal owners, including Fritz Thyssen, as well as bank officials who refuse to open for business, the Essen postmaster, etc. Lots of passive resistance (passive Germans are the best Germans). France has been diverting coal trains intended for Germany to France, but railroad workers are now refusing to allow coal trains out of the Ruhr.

Ireland executes 9 more men for having firearms and 2 for train-wrecking. That’s 45 executions since November 17. The “Free State” is kinda violent.

A meeting of the whites of Blanford, Illinois “order” the black population to leave town unless they give up the man who assaulted an 11-year-old white girl.
