(Received June 25, 12.25 p.m.) PARIS, June 24. Widespread riots over the week-end demonstrated the increasing tension between the Fascists and anti-Fas-cists. The most serious clash occurred at Lorient, where 100 people were in~ jured, including 28 police, in a sixhours struggle between anti-Fa-scists and the Mobile Guards and mounted police outside a cinema in which the Fascists were meeting. The police repeatedly made unsuccessful charges against showers- of stones and broken bottles. The firemen were called out, but the erowd trod them down and tore up their hoses. The mofo, gaining the upper hand, wrecked the cinema and proceeded to smash up the locality. The police, hitting out with their rifle butt-s, eventually dispersed the mob.
