The attached files contain the transcript of the second day (11.07.1934) of the"Grahamstown Tria". This case deals with a crude forgery by Harry Victor Inch (leader in the Eastern Province of the South African Grey Shirts Movement), of the Protocols of the Wise Men of Zion and a Jewish world conspiracy. The newspaper"Die Rappor" published a document (in an Afrikaans version on 6 April and in the original English version on 13 April) allegedly stolen by Mr. Inch from the Western Road Synagogue in Port Elizabeth. This fake document includes both a rather vague and a very detailed Jewish"Plan of Attac", which appears to be a record of an address delivered by the rabbi to the members of the local Jewish community. On the second day of trial, Johannes Strauss von Moltke (leader in the Eastern Province of the South African Gentile National Socialist Movement) continued to cross-examine the plaintiff Abraham Levy (the minister of the Port Elizabeth Hebrew Congregation) - the third defendant David Hermanus Olivier (publisher of"Die Rappor") interviewed Mr. Levy as well. This interrogation mainly revolved around the definition of a forgery and the possibility of the document being fake. Nahum Sokolow, the president of the World Zionist Congress, was interrogated next. Having answered the court's questions, the defendants cross-examined Mr. Sokolow next. He shared his views on the Zionist Occupation Government conspiracy theory. Interrogation (1) -- Interrogation (2)
