The Heimwehr, armed with a ma- chine gun and with snipers firing | § from the tower of the town hall, ex- acted the greatest toll, killing one socialist and injuring the 12 whose wounds were regarded as grave. Oth- er casualties were divided between the two factions. The socialists, who were partici- | pating in a party banquet, were taken by surprise, believing the Heimwehr members to be holding a demonstration at Thoerl. They claim- ed to have been unarmed and to have attended the feast unprepared for trouble. The fighting was the outcome of the socialists announcing as a speak- er a man who was distasteful to Heimwehr members. The speaker a man, had attempted during the Vienna riots of July 1927 to pro- claim a socialist dictatorship. Hand- bills were distributed yesterday morning to wives of socialists warn- ing them that their husbands would encounter difficulties if they attend- ed the meeting.
