 The left Wingers turned out in protest against a meeting of the French social party (formerly the Fascist CroiX de Feux, which was banned and were fired upon by the forces of the leftist government.
 The Communists sent two of their leaders,. Maurice Thorez and Jean Duclos, to demand of Blum that he punish those responsible for the rioting. A preliminary official in- quiry, however, seemed to indicate that the first shots were fired by demonstra tors.
 The communists are trying to force the government to ban all po- litica lactivities of the French so- cial party, headed by Col. Francois De La Rocque, and also to change the executives of the police forces
 Premier Blum. conferred with communist leaders Maurice Thorez and Jean Duclos and, as gesture of sympathy with men wounded in the riots. intimated that he would again visit hospitals to talk to them.
 Heavy patrols of mobile guards men watched for any outbreak Ill the Clichy suburb and police throughout the capital were on the alert
 The prefecture of police and min istry of interior put the death toll at four, all demonstrants, and said that 80 rioters were sent to hospi- talS, 220 were treated at hospitals for less serious wounds, and that 242 police and mobile guardsmen were Wounded--a total of 542 wounded in addition to many treat cd privately.
