Léon Daudet
[2] Together with Charles Maurras (who remained a lifelong friend), he co-founded (1907) and was an editor of the nationalist, integralist periodical L'Action Française.When Maurras was released from prison after serving a sentence for verbally attacking Prime Minister Léon Blum, Daudet[3] joined other political leaders Xavier Vallat, Darquier de Pellepoix, and Philippe Henriot to welcome him in the Vel' d'Hiv in July 1937.That same year, Germaine Berton carried out an assassination against fellow Action Française writer Marius Plateau.In 1934, during the Stavisky Affair, he was to denounce Prime Minister Camille Chautemps, calling him the "leader of a gang of robbers and assassins".He also showed particular detestation for the subsequent Prime Minister Léon Blum, candidate of a coalition of socialists and other parties of the left.
