Eric D. Butler, of the Australian League of Rights, now touring Canada, called off a meeting in a hotel in Edmonton, Alberta, after it was visited by about 40 persons who were “uninvited.” Butler denied producing an edition of the “Protocols of the Elders of Zion” but stated that it was issued by the Heritage Press, an institution which he admitted being associated with.
A. Miller, of Calgary, speaking for the Jewish Community Relations Committee, denounced Butler for his tactic of posing as an anti-Communist but “using this as a mask for anti-Jewish incitement.”
