Eddie Cantor, American-Jewish comedian, is the target of an attack in The Blackshirt, official organ of Sir Oswald Mosley’s party, for his statement to newspapermen that he did not go to Germany during his recent visit to Europe because his trip “embraced only the civilized parts of Europe.”
Emulating the Hitler press, The Blackshirt, spokesman for British Fascism, calls for a boycott of Cantor’s films in England.
