...Although Socialist Blum had resigned this did not destroy the political majority of the Popular Front. Mindful of this fact President Lebrun asked another Popular Front statesman before dawn to try to form a Cabinet, picking for this effort a Radical Socialist who had twice before been Premier, Camille Chautemps. Names notwithstanding, the Radical Socialists are more conservative than the Socialists in France, and thus the selection of Middle-of-the-Roader Chautemps meant a shift toward the Centre and away from the Communists.

Monsignor O'Toole and the two younger priests patterned their Alliance after a group in Manhattan led by Dorothy Day, onetime Socialist, and Peter Maurin, onetime French hobo, whose radical Catholic Worker competes with the Daily Worker in Union Square. Radical Catholics Day & Maurin maintain a House of Hospitality and an Easton, Pa. farm commune for Catholic proletarians. What they call "the dynamite of Catholic teaching" and submit as an alternative to Communism...
