$500 WOMEN PROTEST WAR
Part in Solemn Parade in
New York.

New York, Aug 31.-Woman made
her protest against the war in Europe
by marching through fashionable Fifth
avenue to the beat of muffled drums.
The marchers clad themselves in
black or, dressed in white, wore
mourning bands on their sleeves.
Silently they trod through this canyon
of hotel, club, residence and Office
structures, while thousands of persons
stood IS quietly on the sidewalks,
viewing the slowly moving procession
as they might look upon a passing fu-
neral cortege. Occasionally sunlight
streamed from overcast skies and
touched upon the clusters of yellow
flowers which some of the marchers
carried Nearly twenty-five hundred
women took part in this unique DEM
onstration, which had the approval of
President Wilson. Boy Scouts with
drums led each division. A lone ban
ner f1uttered in the breeze-the world
ensign of liberty and peace which
fioated at the foremost of the govern
fnent steamship Ancon when it passed
through the Panama canal fortnight
ago. Behind this flag walked women
who have become known in religion,
literature, the woman suffrage move
ment. society and many professions; a
few who were refugees abroad when
the conflict began, and many more,
Socialists. social workers, delegates
from women's organizations and
others. They represented many
cities.
In a division of automobiles rode
mothers with their babies.
