The victorious outcome of the Manitoba trial in which Jews obtained a court injunction against the local Nazi paper prohibiting publication of anti-Jewish propaganda, has encouraged Jewish leaders here to introduce a bill in the Ontario legislature asking for an anti-libel law, which would protect the Jews from libelous anti-Semitic attacks.
