FASCIST MARCH
IN THE EAST END HOME OFFICE REFUSES TO INTERVENE POLICE READY FOR EMERGENCIES (United Press Association—By Electrio Telegraph—Copyright) LONDON, 3rd October. Despite the appeal of five East End mayors and a Jewish petition with 100,000 signatures, the Home Office refused to intervene to prevent the Fascist march in the East End tomorrow, but all police leave has been cancelled and bodies of mounted and foot police are concentrating in readiness for emergencies. Friendly societies, trade unions and ex-servicemen supported the Jewish protest, the organiser of which says that police protection cannot guarantee order, it being impossible to prevent counter-demonstrations and individual outbursts. The Fascists will be strongly escorted.
Feeling in the East End is running high, loud speakers carried in cars to-night blaring, “Keep out Mosley,” and flags flying from the windows. Sir Oswald Mosley is leader of the Black Shirt movement in England
