Vice-Admiral Taylorasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether his attention has been drawn to an organisation entitled "The League of Ex-Servicemen and Women," which is supported by ex-internees under Regulation 18b, which holds meetings regularly 1092W in Paddington and elsewhere and puts forward anti-Semitic propaganda; and what steps he proposes to take to avoid resulting breaches of the peace.
§ Sir D. SomervellYes, Sir. I am aware that an individual who claims to represent a body of that name is speaking on street corners and similar places in London. He attracts comparatively few hearers, and there does not seem to be much risk of his activities leading to a breach of the peace. It is one of the recognised duties of the police to be ready to prevent any breach of the peace in connection with such meetings, and no special action on my part is called for.
