100 Years Ago This Month:

Historical events from April

The month of April has

been home to many historical

events over the years. Here’s

a look at some that helped to

shape the world in April 1925.

• King Yeta III of Barotse-

land and the Lozi people

in what is now Zambia

abolishes the corvée on

April 1 in the British colony

of Northern Rhodesia. The

corvée is a system of forced

labor that is considered the

last vestige of slavery in the

colony.

• On April 2, Harry Pierpont

is arrested in Detroit for

a string of bank robberies

across Indiana and Michi-

gan. Pierpont escapes from

prison eight years later

and ultimately joins John

Dillinger in committing

numerous additional bank

robberies.

• Henry Ford begins running

a private air freight service

between Detroit and Chi-

cago on April 2.

• On April 4, Field Marshal

agrees to run in the second

round of the German presi-

dential election in place

of Karl Jarres, who had

won the first round. Jarres

withdrew his name prior to

the second round, paving

the way for Hindenburg’s

candidacy and ultimate

victory.

• Several men working

for criminal Al Capone

severely assault investiga-

tive reporter Robert St.

John on April 6. St. John

had previously authored

several pieces exposing

Capone’s criminal empire

in Cicero, Illinois.

• Adolf Hitler formally re-

nounces his Austrian citi-

zenship on April 7. Hitler

would remain stateless and

ineligible for public office

until being granted Ger-

man citizenship in early

1932.

• In conjunction with the

British Colonial Office, the

Australian government

announces a plan on April

8 to encourage nearly half

a million British citizens to

relocate to Australia. The

government offers low-

interest loans and skills

training to entice people to

move.

• A demonstration against

Lord Balfour in Damascus

ends with two people dead

and 11 wounded on April 9.

The protests were a re-

sponse to Balfour’s promo-

tion of Jewish interests in

Palestine. Balfour would

depart Damascus in haste a

day after the demonstration.

• F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel

The Great Gatsby is pub-

lished on April 10.
