An attempt to transplant the spirit of the Ku Klux Klan into Great Britain is being made by a group of Britishers who have established a distinctly anti-Jewish order which is to be known as the White Knights of Britain.
The order will be secret and according to the program of the promoters its members must prove that their parents and grand-parents were of British blood. must declare they believe that “Jews are a menace to Christian civilization” and their belief in God in the Christian sense and their belief in the supremacy of the white race
Some of the papers featured an interview with Lucien Wolf who termed the plan of the order “silly.” English Jews do not regard the order as a menace but rather as a joke as no real anti-Semitic feeling exists in Great Britain, it is asserted.
