NOTE: THE REPORT THAT ORMSBY-GORE WOULD LEAVE COMMONS WAS WITHDRAWN BY HAVAS

Nazi sources have admitted, for what is believed to be the first time, that “The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion,” discredited record of a purported plot for Jewish world domination, was plagiarized from another work, but claim the plagiarism was committed by a Jew. A new pamphlet in English, “The Jewish World Conspiracy” by Dr. Karl Bergmeister, issued by the anti-Semitic publishing house of Col. Ulrich Fleischauer in Erfurt, Germany, confesses that the “Protocols” was taken in large part from Maurice Joly’s “Dialogues in Hell between Machiavelli and Montesquieu.”
