A verdict prohibiting a British anti-Semite from speaking in public for 12 months was issued by a North London magistrate today after finding the dofendant guilty of incitement against Jews and using words which are “likely to lead to a breach of the peace.”

The defendant, Ronald Eustace Hargrave, is a member of Mosley’s Union Movement. He was charged with threatening the Jews at an open air meeting last month. He also attacked the Jewish state, especially the fact that the Israel Government is transferring its seat from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
