Wider Highways.
:. Advocated to End
Traffic Blockade

More than $3.50, OOO, 600 q year is
the loss in the United States from
inadequate traffic facilities and con-
troll, according to the report made in
Washington by committee of the
National Conference on Street and
Highway Safety. promoted by Secre-
tary Hoover Of the department Of
commerce.
Az a relief from this condition
wider highways are being urged by
all the organizations identified with
highway traffic, transportation and
construction. The adoption of wider
highways is pronounced in some
states, many roads known as super
highways" being projected with at
least four one-way traffic lanes and
sometimes six or eight, with the
heavy trucks separated from the
lighter automobiles and with better
provision for highway safety. In
New York City dOuble-decked street
is being projected south along the
Hudson river docks from Riverside

HALL TO HEAR
CITLOW SPEAK
Philadelphia Breaks Ban
on Meetings

PHILADELPHIA, April 22-In a
successful free speech mass meeting,
overhowing the Labor Institute Hall,
Eighth and Locust streets, Philadel-
phia workers were addressed by Ben
jamin Gitlow, ]. o. Bentall and For
rest Bailey. 1t marked a definite vic
tory fought for many long weeks.
The meeting was the elimination
OF long chain of incidents. When
the international Ladies' Garment
Workers Union was in convention in
this city last fall, Benjamin Gitlow
was requested to address the assem-
bled delegates, Immediately after his
release from Sing-Sing on a pardon
from Gov. Smith. A disturbance was
caused in the convention hall by the
press of the crowd wishing to gain
admission to hear Gitlow speak. The
next day the Philadelphia press sub
thy insinuated that Gitlow instigated
riot, and was directly responsible
for the disturbance. On this pretext
Gitlow was denied the right to speak
at the Lenin Memorial meeting.
Suppression of Free Speech.
This state of affairs in Philadel-
phia-the suppression Of free speech,
and the tactics of the police in OBJ
structing meetings-couldn not go with
out a protest. With the cooperation
of the International Labor Defense
and the American Civil Liberties
Union, a free-speech meeting was ar
ranged.
]. o. Bentall, of the International
Labor Defense, was chairman Of the
meeting. He was also the first speker.
The second speaker was Forrest
Bailey of the American Civil Libert-
les Union.
Cheer eitlow.
When the chairman introduced Ben
iamin Gitlow, the workers gave him
most enthusiastic ovation. The
workers listened attentively to the in
cidents that led the police depart
ment to gag him, and not allow him
to appear in this city to address the
workers. The main theme of his
talk was the Passaic strike.
]. o. Bentall, of the International
Labor Defense made an appeal for
support of the I. L. d. which is now
defending over 200 prisoners of the
class war in New Jersey.

WASHINGTON, April % -(FP)-
Putting teeth into the first amend
ment, which guarantees the right Of
citizens to enjoyment of freedom of

posed by Congressman Victor L. Ber-
ger, in bill offered in the house.
Berger says that IL millions can be
spent in enforcement of the 18th
amendment, which relates to drinks,
some few dollars should be spared to
enforce civil liberties that are violated
whenever workers, as in Passaic
have any views to express.

BONNEVILLE, Ind, April 22.-

he was at work in junk yard at the

testified in confederation of the state

saw commotion he started back on
