.tiyiiies OF the Socialists throughout the
country during the past week and espe-
cially meetings Of Socialists held in this
city. said today that the Department OF
Justice Is not interfering with such
gatherings, It being felt that the vari-
ous states had sufficient police powers
and were able 20 cope with any disor-
der. Referring TO the acts OF those who
attended meetings throughout the coun-
try yesterday, protesting against the
sentence OF the United states Courts In
cases involving political prisoners, Mr..
Curley said such was not contempt OF

Mr.. Curley llkened the present tur-

expressed the Idea that arrest OF radical
