Loyalty Lemon Stratton
AUSTRALIAN AND N.Z. CABLE ASSOCIATION. SYDNEY, May 9. Returned soldiers, whose League was chiefly responsible for the loyalty demonstration sought vainly for Donald Grant and Garden, two militant lenders, whoso previous utterances had irritated them, and upon whom they threatened vengeance, but the quest failed. Other leaders whoso meetings
were broken up, had to receive police protection. At night, a demonstrative crowd gathered outside the Commitn.ists’ Hall. The police in strong force prevented the breaking up of the meeting proceeding inside!. Amongst the Domain meetings was one organised by the Australian Labour Party, section of Returned Sailors and Soldiers’ League who displayed their banner, but no Union Jack. This incensed the crowd, who demanded the flying of the. Union Jack. They finally rushed the platform, hoisted the Union Jack and dispersed the meeting. The whole demonstration was a memorable display against anti-loyalty.
