(Jewish Telegraphic Agency)
Since the big campaign of the League of Gentiles last December very little has been heard of the League and its movement against the Jews. Its activities, it is stated, however, have been continued secretly. Anti-Semitic pamphlets have been circulated among Gentiles in Jewish employment. Recently at a political conference a delegate made a virulent anti-Semitic speech, to which several Jewish delegates present strongly objected. The League of Gentiles telegraphed to the anti-Semitic speaker commending him for his speech.
Placards have now been posted up in the city announcing a concert to be held in the Town Hall under the auspices of the League of Gentiles’ Benevolent and Protection Society, and urging the citizens of Johannesburg to come and hear the truth about the Jews. The concert is to be held on a date just ahead of the arrival of Mr. Nahum Sokolow in South Africa to open the Zionist conference.
