  • A Spanish troop transport carrying 1,000 foreign legion troops was sunk in Alhucemas Bay by Rif shelling.[2]

September 2, 1925 (Wednesday)

  • The Australian government announced new tariffs that included preferences for British goods.[6]
  • Ship owners told Australian seamen that they would face no reprisals for their outlaw strike if they returned to duty within 48 hours.[3]

If he incites Americans to commit crimes, put him in jail."[32]
