Prime Minister Harold Wilson last night condemned anti-Semitism and racial discrimination in an address at the Lord Mayor’s banquet at Guildhall here.
“If we are going to speak with authority abroad,” the Prime Minister declared, “we have a deep duty at home to show our deep loathing and to condemn by our deeds racial intolerance, color prejudice and anti-Semitism, whether they be found in the activities of squalid relics of prewar fascism, in the behavior of politicians of any party or elsewhere.”
