PARIS), Dec. 8. (Ily the Associated
Press.) Tho communists continue to
hold tho center of tho stage In France
appearing undismayed by the govern
ment mensures.
At a meeting of tho labor federation
last evening, a group of radicals form
ed a processison and marched two
miles to the eastern railroad terminus
singing tho "Internationale." They
were scattered by police.
Another band attended the inaugur
ation of a local soldiers' memorial at
Stains, a northern suburb of Paris and
drowned tho speakers' attempts W"th
cheers for I.enlno nnd tho singing of
the "Internationale!" They were Uis
por -ed by pollro reserves.
Such activities aro noted by the
press, particularly tho nationalist or
L'lim. which declaro Premier ilerrlot's
Iieasures of repressison arc a farce and
aro dangerous because they create se
curity and encourage tho communists
by their weakness.
Extracts from I.'Humanlte nnd oth
er communist sheets, as well as from
speeches delivered at communist meet
ing to show that the revolutionary
menace is a reality, are prinfed.
The government is preparing a de
