Edward Doran, formerly known as anti-Semitic, today promised to demand on the floor of the House of Commons that the British Government investigate the reported killing by Nazis at Ratibor, Silesia, of a Polish-Jewish football player before permitting a scheduled Anglo-German football match at Tottenham.
