  • Three Socialist members of the Gustav Stresemann cabinet resigned in protest of the government's refusal to curb the powers of the dictatorial regime in Bavaria.[4][5]
  • The Reichsbank issued a 100 trillion-mark banknote.[6]
  • David Lloyd George gave a final speech at the Metropolitan Opera House as he ended his tour of North America. Lloyd George defended the Treaty of Versailles as "the best treaty that could have been negotiated under the circumstances at that time" and said it was not the treaty that was responsible for the present problems of Europe, but "the completeness of the victory. It was the most complete victory that has almost ever been won in wars between great nations. Germany-Austria were shattered, demoralized, disarmed, prostrated; we left them like broken backed creatures on the road for any chariot to run over." He added that Europe must be given "the conviction that right is supreme over force. Who is to do it? There are only two countries on Earth which can establish that conviction, and those are the United States of America and the British Empire. Unless it is done, I do not know what is going to happen."[7][8][9]

  • The Australian government issued an appeal to fit men of military age to enroll as special constables as the Victorian Police strike entered its fourth full day.[11] The strike gradually petered out with the hiring of these Specials.[15]

  • The Imperial Conference also accepted, in modified form, an American plan to thwart rum-running by British vessels.

  • With the putsch having stalled, Ludendorff led a hastily arranged 11:00 a.m. march with 2,000 men on the center of Munich, until police fired on the putschists and dispersed them. 4 state officers and 16 Nazis were killed in the gun battle. Ludendorff was arrested, but Hermann Göring and Hitler were among those who escaped.[22][23]
  • The Nazi Party was banned throughout Germany.[27]
  • David Lloyd George disembarked in Southampton and walked right into the fight on Stanley Baldwin's protectionist tariff policy, which Lloyd George called "an unutterable, unintelligible folly."[28]

  • Benito Mussolini said in a Senate speech that "The Italian government cannot give its approval to any further occupation of German territory.
