Six persons were under arrest today for creating disturbances at Albert Hall last night when Oswald Mosley, leader of the British Fascists, appealed for support and delivered one of the bitterest anti-Semitic tirades of his career.
Describing the Jews as “the one force in the world which uses international Communism and international finance,” he declared that the Jews had forced the Fascists to fight them.
“Even Hitler was not an anti-Semite until he saw a Jew,” Mosley asserted. He promised that the British Fascists would “break the power” of the Jew. Hundreds of policemen kept guard in the hall and within a radius of five blocks while the Black Shirt leader spoke.
