Special material is being prepared by the Jewish Defense Committee of the British Board of Jewish Deputies to counter fascist and anti-Semitic attacks that may crop up in England during the forthcoming general elections campaign.

Special material is being prepared for use in the Kensington constituency in this city, where Sir Oswald Mosley, leader of the British fascists, will contest that division’s seat in the House of Commons. Other material will be circulated by the committee to fight the continuing anti-Negro agitation. The committee reported to the board yesterday that it deems the anti-Negro agitation as stemming from "exponents who are known to be anti-Semitic. "
