RoyaIist Leader Continues to

No Surrender.
ny the Associated Press.

Oy tne Associated freSs,
PARIS, June 11.-Thirty or more
persons were injured in a three
cornered clash this evening between
Royalists, Communists and the police
near the newspaper offices of L'Action
Francaise, where Leon Daudet, Royal
fst leader, had barricaded himself
against arrest for failure to surrender
preparatory to serving a five months
prison sentence.
Canes and blackjacks were the
weapons used in the clash before
"Daudet's block house." as the news
paper offices are becoming known.
The 80 odd wounded were about
evenly divided between the mani
rests were made.
Rain Ends Encounter.
The battle came when a group of
young Royalists advanced toward the
building shouting Long live Daudet"
and yelling epithets hostile to the
government. They were met by
q Communist counter-manifestatio
which rallied about the cry: Down
with Daudet! To Jail with him.
A downpour of rain of extraordinary
violence, more than the police inter.
vention, put an end to the combat.
It was reported that none of those
injured was seriously hurt.
The Royalist leader, who is under
sentence for libelling a taxicab driver
in connection with an investigation
into the death of young Philippe
Daudet, the editors son, several
years ago, insists that he will not
surrender.
AS the third night of his voluntary
Imprisonment began, Daudet was
IAI Irp Nod I'd YnN
from among young Royalist followers.
Authorities Stay Hand.
"I will not surrender" Daudet told
newspaper correspondents. ITO cede
would be the abdication of the liberty
Of the pen. In submitting to unjust
punishment I would consecrate in
iQuity. Not until have received for
NAL official assurances from the gov
ernment of the republic will I leave
this Office"
= Meanwhile the authorities have
made no move to arrest Daudet, al
though the time limit for his voluntary
surrender expired at pm. yesterday.
Premier Po1ncare. it is reported,
would not be averse to presidential
pardon for the royalist leader, but
feels that he should serve at least a

defy the government.
Crowds varying from a few hundred
to more than thousand stood about
the street in front of the newspaper
Office today waiting for developments.
Daudet received numerous gifts of
pastry and other dainties as well as
several bouquets of flowers.
Touch of Tragedy.
The incident. which strikes many
of the spectators as somewhat of a
good joke on the government, is a
convenient comedy for many visitors
as the offices are very close to the st.
Lazare station, the largest railroad
terminus in Paris. Tragedy, however
IS not far from the surface as was in
dicated when Daudet, in a choking
voice. told correspondents. II will not
thus betray the memory of my son
who died in my place"

human beings, miles apart--even
thousands of miles apart-can con-

The fascinating possibilities of the
achievement of American Telephone

were scarcely realized fully by those
who attended the first public demon

Herbert Hoover's face on a screen
while his voice doomed out through
a loud speaker discussing the mar
wells of the invention. Voice and
