Molestation of the Jews is not a part of the program of the French Royalist followers of Leon Daudet in the event that they come to power, he stated today. However, he said, since the Jews declare themselves to be a nation, their status and immigration and particular rights and duties must be “regulated.” After such regulation, he asserted, the Jews and French can live together peacefully.

Leon Daudet, leader of the French Royalist Party, like German Nazis would “provide Jews with a special regime and new regulations governing their movements in France,” the United Press says in a copyright report of an interview with him yesterday in Paris.

“There is no question of molesting the Jews”, he is quoted as saying, “but since they declare themselves to be a nation, it is prudent to control by law their immigration and the stationing of members of that nation on our soil.”
