FRENC HMAN
Police Intervene at Marsei1Ies When
Two Hundred Angry Com
munlsts Rush at
Herriot

Paris.-Premier Herriot, of Franc
narrowly escaped injury in Marsiel
les when 200 communists swingin,
canes andn sticks and shouting, "Am
nesty," made determined effort tt
surround and mob the premier in the
Rue Cannebiere, the main thorough
fare, members of the premier's party
disclosed on his arrival here.
M. Herriot was rescued from the
excited crowd only after the police
who arrived belately upon the scene
had forced back the communists and
dispersed the gathering.
The premier ran into the hostile
gathering because of his insistence
that he be permitted to walk through
the streets. When he landed from
torpedo boat which brought him
from the warship La Provence from
the deck of which he had witnessed
great naval review he refused to
enter limousine which awaited him
at the wharf. 1t was more fitting, he
said, that a Democratic premier
should walk.
His progress from the water front
through the Rue Cannebiere was a
continuous ovation, the crowds be-
coming denser and greater as he
walked further into the city. He was
loudly acclaimed and congratulated
for his democratic demeanor and
great cheers came up from the people
as he stopped to shake hands with
the common people and sailors.
Suddenly there rushed from a side
street about 200 persons, composed
of representatives of the younger ele-
ment IN the communist party. They
were swinging their hats at the end
of the canes and shouting Amnesty"
The manifestants manuevered a
flank movement and soon had the
premier surrounded, unable to make
further advance and unable to extri-
cate himself from the hostile crowd.
The sticks were swung dangerously
close to his head and the attitude of
the shouting communists was any
thing but reassuring.
The premier remained cool amid
he uproar and in the face of the pur-
oosely swung canes until a belated
police charge scattered the crowd
md permitted him to enter a passing
automobile in which he proceeded to
he railway station and boarded a
rain for Paris.
