Paris presses right wing attack on Communist party
In Paris editors from Le Figaro Le Journal and Le Jour denounced the Communist party as seeking civil and foreign war and as an agent of the Soviet Union. They accused the Communists of sabotaging national defense fomenting strikes and inciting French workers against foreign states. Daladier’s paper did not endorse the appeal. Leftists called it potent blackmail threatening to topple the government unless the Communists are dissolved. The piece notes eighteen European nations have already dissolved their Communist parties to safeguard national interests.
