This actually the only example of an “response” tract that I’ve come across – it is a right-wing answer (closely following the same formatting even!) to the union tract posted previously.

WE BELONG TO
THE 75% OF
WORKERS

who wish
TO RETURN TO WORK

  AND WE will ALL BE BE PRESENT
  ON TUESDAY, JUNE 4 to assert
  OUR RIGHTS.

 FREEDOM TO WORK
   EQUALITY
     FRATERNITY

UNION OF ST. ETIENNE
FOR THE DEFENSE OF CIVIL RIGHTS

TAKE ACTION

FRENCHWOMEN,
FRENCHMEN,

– The present paralysis of economic activity can only lead to unemployment and poverty. 
– In your factories, workshops, offices and universities, stand up firmly against troublemakers. 
– Protect the freedom of expression and the right to work, against a violent minority. 
– The government of the Republic will defend law and order, and your rights, against anarchy.
– Rally sympathisers and all those that are hesitant together. 

THE MAJORITY OF THE FRENCH PEOPLE IS WITH YOU!

        Committees for the 
        Defence of the 
        Republic.

ENOUGH

1) Of the thousands of red flags
  – flying on public buildings
  – on marches and demonstrations
  – in the lecture halls

2) Of the Internationale
  – being sung by demonstrators with clenched fists

3) Of the French Flag
  – being profaned, torn, burned in public places
  – being turned into filthy rags
  – and the tomb of the Unknown Soldier being defiled

4) Of the anarchy which is setting in
  – the University being turned into a filthy hovel
  – the CNRS in a state of cultural revolution
   – the strikes
  – the Odeon being turned into a rubbish dump
  – the frescoes in the SORBONNE being daubed with paint.

THERE IS NO MORE LAW

 Law and order no longer exits.
 The communist revolution is in preparation and is scoring more points each day.
 To combat the subversion which takes advantage of disorder to establish itself:
