A clash between Jewish members of the League to Combat anti-Semitism and a group of anti-Semitic members of the Solidarite Francaise Organization, broke out today in the streets of Paris.
The clash culminated in the Jews’ dispersing the anti-Semites. Crowds of Frenchmen who witnessed the fight applauded the Jews on their victory.
The fight started when the members of the Solidarite Francaise insulted and attacked the Jews on the street. Since there were no policemen in sight, the Jews fought back in self defense and succeeded in dispersing their assailants before the police arrived.
