lue policy of 100% Toryism and no tinkering with Socialism’ (The Times, 6 March 1931). Duff Cooper, a pro-Baldwin Conservative, won the seat after a tremendous row with the Westminster Conservative Association. See The Times, February–March 1931, for the turmoil over the St George’s Division election of March 1931. Two nationalist press lords, Beaverbrook and Rothermere, had launched the United Empire Party in 1930 to get rid of the leader of the party – Baldwin at that time – and replace him with one who would do as they instructed. Rothermere was eventually to support Mosley’s Blackshirts, Hitler, Munich etc. 31 Louis to René, undated, probably Decmber 1932. 32 All this from an exceptionally long letter, Myrtle to René, 11 January 1933. 33 Myrtle to René, 11 February 1933. 34 ibid., 16 February 1933. 35 ibid., 23 March 1933. 36 All quotations from Janot Darquier: her letter to René, 28 March 1933. 37 Myrtle to René, undated, April 1933. 38 ibid., 13 September 1933. 39 Coy, July 2001. 40 Myrtle to René, 11 January 1933. chapter 7 The Street INTERVIEWS AND CORRESPONDENCE: Paulette Aupoix, Jeanne Degrelle, Pierre Gayet, Audrey Kirby, Yvonne Lacaze, Pierre Orliac, Danny Puddefoot, Pierre Pujo, Teresa.

They policed Action Française meetings and disrupted those of almost everyone else, using force to prevent theatre performances or lectures on subjects or with attitudes unacceptable to their faith. Splattering their enemies with coal tar and printers’ ink, wrecking offices, orchestrating riots, they added the Bolshevik Menace to their list of targets and attacked Jews, Germans, Republicans, Freemasons, foreigners and communists, accusing those they assaulted of representing all these things. 3 Jean became Chef de Clinique à la Faculté de Médecine de Paris – head of the neurology clinic at La Salpêtrière; later his stationery from the rue Jouffroy was headed ‘Former Head of the Faculty’. Another doctor who arranged a similar banquet in Bordeaux was Pierre Mauriac, the brother of François Mauriac. 4 Pierre Gayet, January 2000 and Yvonne Lacaze, January 1999: ‘Jean shared the ideas of his brother Louis.’ 5 The Lambert Law of 1927 reduced the period of residence in France necessary for naturalisation from ten to three years. This gave the French state, which was suffering from the losses of the First World War, more men for the armed services. Between 1923 and 1926, 112,337 immigrants became French citizens; 269,872 between 1927 and 1930. 6 Marrus and Paxton (p. 36) give Jewish refugee intakes as follows: USA 190,000; Palestine 120,000; Great Britain 65,000; France 55,000. Maurras exaggerated this figure by three or four times. 7 Édouard Daladier (1884–1970): Premier of France from 1938 to 1940. During the Occupation, after the fiasco of the trial at Riom, he was handed over to the Germans and was kept prisoner until 1945. He continued as a deputy after the war. 8 Louis to René, 14 November 1933. 9 Pierre Pujo, December 2000. 10 Henri Charbonneau (1913–82): Ebullient member of the Camelots du Roi and Action Française, of the Cagoule and, after the fall of France, of the MSR established by Deloncle in 1940 and funded by Eugène Schueller.
