MEETINGS BARRED,
SOCIALISTS PICKET
Julian Pierce Parades on Avenue
With Propaganda Banner.

Denied the right to hold open air
meetings. the Socialists last night
started to picket.
Julian Pierce, national committeeman
of the party and-secretary of the local
branch. appeared at Eighth street and
Pennsylvania avenue northwest. with
a banner exploiting the Socialist pro-
gram.
Representative Hefin is accused by
the Socialists as responsible for the
edict that denied them the right to
hold open air sessions.
Hefiin heckled a number of the so-
eislist orators last week and yesterday
when Pierce applied for the week
ly license for the open air meetings
he was informed 1t would not be
granted.
Major Pullman would not inform the
Socialists who had entered the COM
plant and after a conference it was
decided to stop the rallies but to picket
at the rally point. Promptly at s:11
last night Pierce appeared as the first
picket with a banner.
On one side. 1t quoted the Constitu-
ton on the matter of free speech and
peaceful assembly. On the other it
cited that the right of the Socialists
to hold a rally was denied by Major
Pullman, an appointee of the Demo-
cratic administration.
Pierce held the standard and twirled
1t vigorously while a trio of police
men held an impromptu conference as
to how they would proceed. They
finally decided to let him alone.

The drive is designed to clear the
Germans from French and Belgian
Flanders, to wrest from them their
hold on the Belgian sea coast, where
they have established a number of
hornets nests" of submarines, and
to turn their flank in such a maner
that further withdrawal in Northern
France will be necessary.
The Germans have been unable, de-
spite costly counter-attacks, to dis
lodge the aihes from any of the ten
villages they captured yesterday or
from any section of their new front.
Reserves were brought up and sent
into action by the Crown Prince Rup-
precht OF Bavaria, German comman-
der on this front, but their utmost ef-
forts were unavailing. They finally
lost heart under the heavy losses in
fiicted upon them.

Maj. Pullman Tells Tenth Precinct
10 Be Prepared.

Maj. Raymond W. Pullman, SUI
perintendent of police, and Odell s..
Smith. deputy director Of the Home
Defense League. were the principal
speakers at the first meeting of the
members of the Home Defense
League of the Tenth precinct. which
was held last night in the Central
High School. More than 20Q mem
bers were present.
Maj Pullman pointed out that,
although the Capital has been free
thus far from riots and disturb
ances, which have occurred in other
parts Of the Union, there was no
telling at what time the police
would need the assistance OF the
mcmbers of the Home Defense
League in maintaining law and or
der.
Deputy Director Smith, in a short
address. explained that the Home
Defense League is not a strictly
military organization. but rather a
second line of defense for the po-
lice department. He pointed oul
that although there has been no
call upon the members of the or
ganization thus far. such a call
might come at any time, and It was
therefore necessary that the MEM
bers of the league be ready to re-
spond.
Announcement was made that in
view OF the great extent of terri
tory embraced in the Tenth pre-
clnct, Il will be divided into eleven
divisions, with lieutenant of the
Home Defense League In charge or
each of the divisions. Each divis-
ion will drill separately except once
a month. when the members will
drill On masse. The next meeting
will be held August Is.

John W. Murphy, Of s12 d street

nounced that beginning august I the

he was still selling at 10 cents q quart.
Mr.. Murphy said he was being forced
to pay producers 10 cents more per
gallon. for milk. He. also, confirmed
statements of other dealers to the eff
feet that price OF almost every item
In marketing and supplies has greatly
increased In price. He said he was
paying $50 instead of s12.50, the price
which formerly prevailed. for the lit
tie covers on his milk bottles.
Milk Demand Greater
Other dealers stated that they were
only paying increased prices to pro-
dueers for extra quantities of milk
over and above their ordinary trade
demand. They pointed out that owing
to the great increase In the city's
population. there is a greatly increased
demand for milk. One dealer said that
ordinarily great numbers of his cus-
toners left town in the summer. but
scarcely a dozen had dropped of this
year, and that restaurants and hotels
were using greatly increased quanti-
ties.
H. L. Black. OF Black & Son. said:

Mr.. Sherwood. Of Storm 4 Sherwood,

One man who has been connected
with the distributing business for more
than eighteen years, declared that
every distributing firm in the city had
raised its prices beginning yesterday
with the exception of one. He stated
that the wholesale price OF milk hao
been advanced by his company begin
