1000 POLICE WATCH
PARADING SOCIALISTS
Red Flags Fly in Harlem, but No
Trouble Results

More than 1000 specially assigned
policemen stepped on the toes of their
brothers on post in less than a square
mile Of Yorkvile and East Harlem last
night while 5000 Socialists placidly pa
raded through the district.
Red fire and red flags the Socialists
/ had, but their plans for the evening, 1t
developed, were pure white. Although
number of striking car men marched
with them, not one of half hundred
streetcars encountered along the line
OF march was molested. The strikers
wore red bands on their service caps
TO signify their alliance with the So
cialist cause. But there were quite a
number who invested 10 cents in small
flags with harps on them that the green
might be above the red.
At Madison Avenue and 106th Street
the marchcrs and others TO the total
humber OF $4,000 were addressed by
Morris Hillquit, TO ratify whose nomi.
nation as Socialist candidate for Con-
gress the parade had been arranged.
The crowd was so large by that timc
that three separate meetings had TO be
held. Assured BY that time that no
trouble would come, Inspector Morris
drew his extra policemen up in COM
panies to keep them out Of mischief.

corning the measures taken By Gov.
ernor General Won Kissing 70 employ
the working population Of Belgium, the
afternoon newspapers, in evidently In
spired articles. point out that they give
a false view Of the measures, which, II
is declared, were undertaken, not in
the interests of German administra-
ton. but for the workers themselves
and for future Belgian finances.
The possibility Of an interruption OF
American relief supplies, which Great
Britain may stop at any moment, and
the danger of disorder among q per-
manently idle element, the newspapers
saw. compel provisions for the regular
employment of Belgians in agricultural
and non military industries.
The newspapers intimate plainly
that those refusing 70 work will no
longer be fed in idleness. As the oppor'
tunities for employment in Belgium
are limited, number Of available
workmen will be employed in adjoining
German centres, but not in any direct
war activities.
