SAW SOCIALIST
 SPIT ON FLAG,
 DECLARES GIRL Gutter Good Enough for U. s. Soldiers, Solomon Said to Have Told Recruit
 ing Party
By Assoela,,a Prr,s

Albany. N. Y., February 3.-A Brook lyn stenographer. Ellen B. Chivers, IS, today testified at the assembly judi ciary committees trial of the five sus- pended socialist assemblymen that she had seen one of them-Charles Solo, mon-spit upon the American flag in wartime,
 There was burst of applause from. the crowded chamber when the girl ex- piained that she had volunteered her testimony in a letter to Speaker Thad- deus c. Sweet, because I think il is the duty of any American to take the stand against one who has committed treason against their country s
 The girl, prompted by an occasional question, told her story in the follow .. ing words;
 T remember that in the summer of 1917, detachment of soldiers came to Ninth street and Sixth avenue Brook lyn, for the purpose of calling for vol. unteers, and they asked MT. Solomon
 Cwho was delivering & street corner address) if they might borrow his plat. form for that purpose. MT, Solomon replied;
 Lend you my platform? Can you
 borrow my platform? Huh, the gutter IS sood enough Tor you. 1 would n0'
 let you wipe your dirty feet on it Keeping her gaze fixed on Solomon,
 the girl testified that few minutes later a band came along and struck
 up the Star Spangled Banner" SPAT ON. FLAG
 MT. Solomon, turned up his coat col
 lar, pulled it over his eyes, spat on the American flag and sat down." she con- cluded.
 The girls story tonight brought from Mir. Solomon statement denying that he had made the remarks attributed to him, asserting thay never in his life had he ever shown any disrespect to the An.ericana flag, and declaring that 1t was tnconceivable. any member of the New York police force would stand indifferently by while person pulp 1 licly insulted the American flag. On ross-examination the girl testi fled that, although member of the American Anti-Socalist League, she had not told her fellow members os l the Solomon incident. The chair sus- ! tained an objection to a question as | to why she had not done so, and why 1 she had not mentioned the affair until nearly three years after it had ne- cured. , 6 Asked by members of the Judiciary committee, sitting as court, why she l did not ask the policemen she said were present to arrest Solomon if she thought his acts reasonable. Miss Chivers replied: There were others who did, but the police refused to do it.''
 Peter w. Collins, a former Boston la Dor leader and now director of the re- construction and employment service | being carried on by the Knights of Co., lumbus. was on the stand for nearly three hours this morning. He testified that socialism was seek : ing to capture trade unionism. to over turn society by force such as was used
 in Russia; that propa ganda instigated by Lenine and Trotzky was aimed at destruction Of the American republic by mass action and that during the war he had seen socialists opposing increased production in ship yards and factories.

New York.-Taffeta is so cleverly
used this season that its popularity
is not at all surprising. Once upon
a time it was considered an "Old'
material. Now it is, perhaps more
than other fabrics, youthful, due
to the skill Of designers in envolv-
ing skilful touches, such touches,
for example, as are shown in this
effective frock that Ina Claire wears
in 1.-THE Gold Diggers" at the Be-
lasco theater.
The petticoat is draped and given
a decoration of applique roses and
ribbon underneath a full skirt OF
tulle. The bodice, with its shallow
neck and shoulder sleeves, is sim
ply little "round" affair, gathered
a bit about the waistline into a

sewed into the armsides to serve
as an apology for sleeves.
