...Party and prominent British Labor leaders, half a million British proletarians liberally sprinkled with Jews went on an anti-Fascist rampage last week which turned out to be London's biggest riot in years. Every provocation had been given the proletariat by No. 1 British Fascist Sir Oswald Mosley, who had announced weeks ahead that 5,000 of his Blackshirts would march through the tortuous streets of London's Jewish quarter east of the Tower. This was interpreted by Jews and workers alike as a challenge to battle, the British Communist Party hurling its cohorts with the slogan...
Seldom do proceedings of the House of Lords interest Italians but last week they were cheering for young Lord de Clifford when he was tried by his peers for a felony. Reason: de Clifford is a disciple of British Fascist leader Sir Oswald Mosley, the only foreign Fascist whose portrait hangs in Rome at Fascist Party headquarters.

While doing so one night the Italian Lancia met a British Frazer-Nash head...
...short time ago friends of democracy were very much on the defensive, and shaken by the rise of dictators under various political labels. Now, however, there is cause for revived hope and aggressiveness of democrats everywhere. Mosley does not flourish in Britain, Huey Long is dead, and France junks its politico-military menaces.

...George, that the Government has whipped people up into such a lather against Italy that Labor daren't oppose sanctions, even if they mean war?" This Mr. Lansbury could see clearly enough. Several hundred London stockbrokers and clerks last week mobbed Sir Oswald Mosley's British Fascist news-youths in Throgmorton Street, seized their papers and burned them, knocked off the helmets of London bobbies who tried to intervene. At Cardiff the captain and crew of an Italian steamer were driven below decks by brawny longshoremen who swarmed aboard and plastered every door and hatchway with posters reading...
...Rothermere Daily Mail hailed "the rebirth of Germany as a nation." Home from a visit to Munich, Rothermere exulted: "Under Herr Hitler's control the youth of Germany will be effectively organized against the corruption of Communism." More than a year ago he took up with Sir Oswald Mosley, vigorously pushed the Mosley "British Union of Fascists." Then came last June's Blood Purge in Germany, the instant revulsion of British sentiment against Naziism. Chuckleheaded Rothermere dropped Blackshirt Mosley like a hot potato, exclaiming: "The Blackshirts are too exotic for me. Good-by." More recently, as deftly...
