An involuntary petition of bankruptcy was filed here in the United States District Court today against the Galahad Press, Inc., publishers of Liberation, anti-Semitic paper, edited by William Dudley Pelley. The petition, which requests the court to declare the company a bankrupt, alleges that the Galahad press is indebted to Robert P. Williams, trading as the Biltmore Press in the amount of $2,695.48; to Robert Summerville for salary totaling $130, and to the Foundation for Christian Economics Inc., for a loan of $6,000.
The petition cites the fact that the Galahad Press was placed in temporary receivership last week upon the request of a creditor. Other suits against the company are pending in Superior Court here.
