Quinn Says Hylan's
Plan to Curb Alien
Talk Is Crotesque
Asserts He Would Vote for
1t if 1t Suppressed Ser
tain Newspapers That
Have Preached Sedition

Ridiculing Mayor Hylan's suggestion
that an ordinance be enacted forbid
ding the holding of meetings in q for
eign language, Alderman William F.
Quinn yesterday stated he would glad
~ vote for such a measure if it in
cluded a provision suppressing "cer-
tain newspapers that have preached
more sedltion il this city than all the
individuals Mayor Hylan refers to-"
The statement made public by Alder
man Quinn follows:
Mayor Hylan's letter to the BoaM
Of Aldermen suggesting that an ordi-
nance be passed preventing meetings of
aliens and meetings where a foreign
tongue is spoken. seems rather gro
tesque, coming from him. Is it possi-
BILE that Hearst has deserted the sink
ing Hylan ship and 'Hizzoner' is CROP
ing around, looking for new fields for
his fast-disappearing last hope of sup
pert?
How funny it must appear to those
who remember how 'Hizzoner' covertly
flirted with every foreign-born eleme mt,
particularly those with a pro- German
tendency, when he was seeking to be
elected
But now when he begins probably to
realize that he is to be only 'one-
term Mayor, and fortunate if he even
hangs on that long, as his own party
may find it expedient to 'Sulzerize' him
before he entirely obliterates them
from the political map, he suddenly be-
comes very patriotic and wants to
muZzle his former addent supporters
with an ordinance preventing their
gatherings or the speaking of their ma
tive tongues.
Even one Of his confreres in the
Board Of Estimate, the President of
the Board of Aldermen, Robert L.
Moran, does not seem to understand
the object Of 'Hizzoner's' last break
as from his statement he seems to have
sent out the tip that the Democratic
majority in the board will not take the
message from the Mayor very serious
ly and any ordinance that may be
drawn up will probably die in COM
mittee.
PERSONALLY, would be glad to vote
tor an ordinance of this kind if
thought it necessary, but to test the
sincerity of Mr.. Hylan I would have
provision incorporated in it that
would take care of certain newspapers
