Three of the four anti-Semitic and ultra-nationalistic organizations dissolved by the Pflimlin Government during the French crisis preceding Premier Charles de Gaulle’s coming to power have apparently been reorganized and are again conducting their activities without hindrance, it was noted here today following the national referendum on the new Constitution proposed by Gen. de Gaulle. The referendum approved the new Constitution by a four-to-one majority.
The former Movement of Young Nationalists, which was responsible for most of the anti-Semitic inscriptions smeared regularly on street walls in Paris has expended its efforts and now publishes a hi-monthly paper. The French Falange, modelled after Mussolini’s Black shirts, has now become the French Popular Movement. The Association of French Union fighters has held public meetings in Paris without any reaction from authorities.
The leader of the fourth outlawed group, a French deputy named Biaggi whose arrest was sought by the Pflimlin Government and against whom charge later were dropped, has called on his followers to enter the “Public Safety” committees rather than to revive their old organization.
