Following preliminary meet. ing of Reis as the virque de Paris last night, M. Vaillant Conturier, forter Communist deputy and now editor of the Communist daily newspaper Humanité, was arrested as he was drinking coffee at a cuta ontside his office.
A handful of Reds who strove to interpage were hustled by plain- clothes detectives into waiting motorcars and taken to the prefve cure
The next step was the arrest of 150 Young Red Guards, semi- military Communist organisation whose adherents wear regulation pattern caps, red sashes, and put Lees, and carry loaded entes.
At dawn detectives went to the homes of leaders of various Com ninbist organisations, some of which masquerade under innocent sounding titles, and took them into custody on a charge of plotting breach of the peee.

This secret meeting decided exactly what was going to hap pen at the branch meeting to be held in a few days' time. It de cided the resolutions which would be brought forward, who should speak, discussed whether any on position would be likely to be forthcoming from the rank and file, and how it was to be met-

in short, the whole thing was rehearsed, so that the actual meeting should be "cat dried," and the decisions of the actual branch meeting should correspond with what the Com- munist nucleus desired..
The branch meeting was in reality a solemn farce, since the cunspirators, controlling the or ganisation had already decided exactly what was going to hap- pen. As the secretary, the chair- man, the treasurer, every com- mitteeman, and all the leading and most active members of the
