The Bell Telephone Company said today that the use of telephone service for anti-Semitic purposes by the Canadian National Socialist Party was legal and the company could not cut off the service unless it was established that the recorded messages used were obscene or libelous. The party, headed by John Beattie, is distributing a Toronto telephone number which, when called, put the caller onto a recorded message which extols the National Socialist movement and accuses the Jews of controlling the Canadian press.
