HC Deb 07 March 1934 vol 286 cc1801-2
9. Colonel WEDGWOOD

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies why the Brown Book of the Hitler Terror is prohibited in Palestine, while Hitler's Mein Kampf is permitted to be sold?

The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for DOMINION AFFAIRS (Mr. Malcolm MacDonald)

The High Commissioner for Palestine has been asked to report on this matter. My right hon. Friend will communicate with the right hon. Member when the report is received.

Colonel WEDGWOOD

Are we to understand that it is legal in the Jewish homeland to defame the Jews but not to defame the defamers?

Mr. JANNER

Will the hon. Gentleman at the same time cause inquiries to be made with regard to any other slanders against the Jewish people which are being issued or published in Palestine?

Mr. MacDONALD

If the hon. Member will give me any information that he has as regards the point, I will look into it.
