BAN ON PARADES
WILL Be FOUGHT
Edgar Owens, Secretary of County
Socialists, Announces Legal
Remedy Is to BE Sought.

Courts are to be asked TO deter
mine legality Of the action which
Mayor Martin r. Carlson. Moline,
has taken in refusing to permit So
cialist street parades during the
period of the war, is the statement
which is made today by Edgar
Owens, county secretary Of the
party.
Mr.. Owens recently appeared be-
fore the Moline city commission in
an attempt to have the mayors rN-
ing of last fall rescinded in order
that a parade on May /, information
ally known as Peace day among
those of sociaiistic views, but the
council unanimously favored sus-
tanning the position OF the city's ex-
ecutive.
1t is Mr.. Owens claim that anti
war propaganda is not to be adj
vanced through street demonstra-
tons proposed and that the refusal
Of the council to allow the same,
amounted to an infringement of the
guarantees of the federal constitu
ton relative to the right of free
speech.
Mayor Carlson took the view that
to allow any Socialist street gath
erfngs at this time would tanta-
mount to giving the enemy aid and
comfort in view of the peace atti-
tude of the national organization,
since they would tend to arouse ac-
tive and spirited opposition of those
loyal Americans who are for the
war, first. last and all the time, IN
order that democratic ideals may
be preserved and autocratic mill
tarism be stamped out at the ear
Hest possible moment.
Mr.. Owens states that Moline's
ban on street meetings will be a
topic for consideration at the state
Socialist convention in Chicago
neXt week and later at the national
PARTY gathering and that the court
procedure is to be the means by
which members of his political or
ganization will try to have the ban
of Mayor Carlson removed.
Instead of the parade planned for
May l but prohibited, there will be
mass meeting in Moline theatre
at Sis next Wednesday evening at
which time Charles L. Drake. Chi
cago, will give his illustrated six
reel movie. THE Great Wander
