STRIKERS’ PARADE
FORCED TO CARRY
U.S. FLAG AT HEAD
LITTLE FALLS. X. T._ Oct. 23.—Tile
proclamation issued last night, sup
posedly by the Industrial Workers of
the World, calling for a general strike
in this city, effective this morning, was
not obeyed, though a slight addition
was made to the number of textile
strikers who have been out the past
two weeks. The thousands of opera
tives went to the mills this morning as
usual and there was no untoward inci
dent growing out of the non-observance
of the strike proclamation. At 8 o'clock
this morning the strikers, who are
practically all foreigners, organized a
parade, in which about 250 partici
pated. A red flag and an Italian flag
’' Were carried at the head of the column.
lAs the paraders passed police head
i quarters Police Captain Gross halted
i them and directed that an American
; flag be carried in advance of the other
flags or the column would have to
■ immediately disband.
The paraders complied with the or
i der and marched about the mill section
' shouting “scab" at crowds on the walks.
! Later the column halted in front of the
’(Phoenix mills and leaders addresaed
the strikers, si caking tn bitter terms of
: their employees and the operatives who
i j refused to join the strike this morning.
