DENIAL FOR THE SOCIALISTS
Gerber Says They Did Not Tear

II appeared to be something OF a mystery
among the Socialists as TO just who IT was
that turned their May Day parade and

In the tearing down of the American flag
from thA platform in Union Square
Wednesday afternoon.
THE men who did It," said Julius Ger
Der. secretary OF the local branch of the
Socialist party. carried banners OF the
Industrial Workers of the World, and most
Of them had buttons OF that organization
on, but unless / knew more about them
than that I would be unwilling 10 charge
the tearing dow OF the flag TO the Indus
trial Workers Of the World
Then he passed out a prepared statement
at the party headquarters, No. $50 West
sith street.
The Socialists have no luminosity toward
the Stare and Stripes" his pronunciamento
read. The people who tore down the
American flag and tried to create a riot
were not Socialists. They were either IA
Mates. who have no reason, or persons who
purposely wanted 20 create a riot and give
the police a chance TO use their clubs on
the heads Of those innocent in the affair. "
Then comes the statement that the So
ciolists n charge Of the celebration kept
cool and calmly tried TO persuade them 10
stop their rioting. fearing the use OF force
r3Sht cause some act OF violence on the
part Of those irresponsible people which
might have cost the lives OK hundreds.
Those In charge denOunce the perpetual tors
and their allies 49, enemies or the working
class"

Sheriff Hamburger Assails Those
Who Tore Down Flag NAV Day.

Sheriff Hamburger last night vigorously
attacked the anarchists who on May Day

the men guilty OF this outrage should have

The Sheriff favored deporting them. Mr..
Hamburger made his speech at meeting OF
the Cosmopolitan Lodge Of the knights of

there was a dinner in his honor. He said
IN part:
They should have been arrested and an
