The first of the letters below was answered, albeit in a rambling, evasive fashion. The second letter was not.

Dear Madam,
I have just been given a copy of the August 1997 edition of
Candour, and am surprised to see that it endorses two proven
anti-Semitic forgeries: the Israel Cohen hoax and the Rabbi
Rabinovich hoax. I am all the more surprised at the former be-
cause this was denounced by none other than the founder of Can-
dour as a clumsy forgery.
I have enclosed one of my own publications which sets the record
straight, and I hope you will do so in a future issue. See in
particular note 50. I would point out that I have actually made
two minor ‐ and honest ‐ errors, in this pamphlet. Trotsky was
not denounced from the synagogue by his father, who was not named
Moses and did not live to see the Second World War; the citation
given in note 60 is correct but the original source is wrong. The
Empire News was about as reputable as the New Of The World. And
Gerry Gable has actually been married four times.
Something else I noticed is that in the June 1997 issue you
attribute a famous quote to Hillaire Belloc. Actually this quote
is correctly attributed to Oswald Spengler in Decline Of The
West. I took the trouble to check this out a few years ago. I
can’t remember the precise citation because, unfortunately, our
wonderful police have “confiscated” my computer, not for the
first time.
Yours sincerely,
A Baron

Dear Madam,
Thank you most kindly for your letter of September 29 and for the
extra copy of your magazine. As a lifelong atheist I am not
interested in the Jewish religion; my interest in the Jewish
Question is primarily of sorting the wheat from the chaff; unfor-
tunately there are damned liars on both sides. On the one hand
there are the lunatics who believe the Jews control the world
from behind the scenes and are responsible for every evil under
the sun, and on the other there are the con men and creeps like
Gerry Gable and his buddy David (anti-Semitism is a disease)
Cesarani who are only interested in shoving the poison of Aryan
evil down the throats of the gullible goyim.
My letter to you is straightforward; I pointed out that ‐ in good
faith no doubt ‐ you had published a fraudulent quote which was
attributed to Israel Cohen. This calumny was invented by Eustace
Mullins and was exposed in your own magazine by that greatest of
British patriots A.K. Chesterton. I am now asking that you pub-
lish a retraction of your endorsement of this quote. Anyone can
make an honest mistake; for the record, I was once taken in by
the quote myself. But a man, or woman, who continues to endorse
lies and calumny once it has been exposed is no better than the
original forger. In the words of Charles Peguy: “He who does not
bellow the truth when he knows the truth makes himself the accom-
plice of liars and forgers.”
That person also gives aid and comfort to Jewish apologists, liars
and propagandists such as Gable and Cesarani.
I look forward to seeing your retraction in a future issue.
Yours sincerely,
A Baron
