PARIS, December 5,
During the debate on Fascist leagues in the Chamber of Deputies, M. Frot, Minister of the Interior, at the time of the Paris riots on February 6, 1934, when several people were killed, received booing and cheers when he said he had been slandered for two years, but did his duty. Those who. complained of the deaths of their followers forgot the other deaths.
Disorder punctuated the speech of M. Vallat, a member of the Fiery Cross, who said that if the leagues were dissolved, Freemasonry must be disbanded.
The sitting was suspended in uproar.
Upon the resumption M. Taittinger, who demands a dictator, declared that it might be necessary to extend the suppression of leagues to the Salvation Army, who carried no arms but certainly wore uniforms.
M. Laval's prospects in the division are considered to be more favourable since he has accepted several measures to restrict league activities, upon which conditions M. Herriot supports his party. ! ■■
