The Dreyfus affair play, which was withdrawn from the Nouvelle Ambigue Theatre after continuous disturbances, will be produced again at the Ba-ta-Klan theatre here, despite the threats of the Royalists that they will not hesitate to use the most violent means to compel its withdrawal. The Ex-Soldiers’ Pacifist Union is making preparations for beating back any attacks that the Camelots du Roi may make on the theatre, regarding the attack on the play as an anti-Republic move.

A group of Deputies has been formed in Parliament for the defence of freedom of speech and thought on the stage, with particular attention to the Dreyfus play.
