Reinternment of a number of Fascists recently released is foreshadowed by a special correspondent of The Jewish Chronicle, following reappearance of scurrilous anti-Jewish slogans on walls in London and the provinces.

“If an offender should prove to be a Fascist released from detention, it is safe to assume that he can expect to be sent back,” since releases were in some cases conditional, the correspondent said, stressing that the Home Office was determined not to relax its vigilance and to stamp out ruthlessly the subterranean anti-Semitic activities of the Fascists.

A new campaign for the release of Sir Oswald Mosley is being launched anonymously through the mails by Fascist agents, it is learned. During the past few days they have been mailing small Union Jacks to prominent people and organizations. In the center of the flag, printed in ink, is the Fascist “lightning” sign. Across it are the words, “Release Mosley.”
