BERGER SCORES FLAG TRAMPLERS
Socialist Congressman Says That Red Flag s Not An tinational But Interna- tional.

Washington, May 2.-Representa- tive Berger, the Wisconsin Socialist, today, excoriated the flag trampling incident in Union Square, New York, in last evenings May Day celebration, as frame up" of anarchists and In- dustrial Workers of the World.
 T understand the whole affair was frame up," said Berger "I deplore 1t deeply. They wanted to destroy the effects of any demonstration un- der Socialistic auspices. The Indus trial Workers of the World-many of them-do not understand that Social ism Is international-not animation al. The red flag is the international emblem of Socialism but it in no way excludes or antagonizes the Star Spangled Banner, for which every American Socialist who has any brains will stand even though it is now un- der control of the capitalistic class.
 ''The Socialists are the best patriots we have. They are not like the Re- publicans and Democrats who claim to have a mortgage on the flag.
 Socialists got black eyes and bloody noses in defending the flag in Union Square. yesterday, and if necessary they would risk infinitely more in de- lending it.''
