In 1923, Campion was expelled from France following a campaign waged against him by Action Française. As he held Belgian nationality, he settled in Brussels, where he met the anarchist bookseller and freemason Marcel Dieu, alias Hem Day. It was a meeting that marked his life.

He became secretary of the Brussels Libre Pensée and secretary of the Belgian section of the War Resisters' International.^[5]
