Victor Matthys
Victor Matthys (20 March 1914 – 10 November 1947) was a Belgian politician who served as both deputy and acting leader of Rexism. He was later executed for collaboration with Nazi Germany.
An early member of the Rexist movement, Matthys took over the editorship of the party newspaper, ''Le Pays Réel'', in 1936 and in May 1941 was promoted to director of propaganda.〔Philip Rees, ''Biographical Dictionary of the Extreme Right Since 1890'', 1990, p. 330.〕 He became official leader of Rex that same July after Léon Degrelle left to serve in the Waffen SS.〔R. J. B. Bosworth, ''The Oxford Handbook of Fascism'', Oxford University Press, 2009, p. 485.〕 He was nominated for the position as he was a weak character who posed no real threat to Degrelle's position as leader.〔David Littlejohn, ''The Patriotic Traitors'', London: Heinemann, 1972, p. 168.〕 Matthys was also popular with the Germans as he had a long standing admiration for Adolf Hitler.〔
As Rexist leader Matthys proved as weak and ineffective as Degrelle had hoped, although he also demonstrated a propensity towards violence to mask his failings.〔 His position eventually came under scrutiny after he ordered the massacre of 20 people in Courcelles as a reprisal against resistance activity. The move was roundly condemned as being too heavy-handed and Matthys gave up the leadership of the Rexists in favour of Louis Collard.〔 He was sentenced to death for collaborationism and executed.〔Rees, ''Biographical Dictionary of the Extreme Right'', p. 331.〕
