LONDON--Rioting between Sir Oswald Mosley's British Fascists and Leftist demonstrators marked rival May Day celebrations in London today when anti-Fascists pelted Mesley with stones as he spoke to a Rightist crowd in Jamaica Street, Bermondsley. Several persons were arrested, mostly Leftists, after scuffling with the Fascists and with mounted police who charged into the milling crowd

"I have worn this black shirt myself for six weeks!" cried Sir Oswald at a meeting of his BUF (British Union of Fascists).
