CHORUS OF “THE RED FLAG” IN PARLIAMENT HOUSE
(Australian and N.Z. Press Association) (United Servicey Reed. 12.33 p.m. .LONDON, Thursday. Twenty of the unemployed who took part in the march to London, headed by a well-known Communist, called at No. 10 Downing Street, in an attempt to see Mr. Baldwin. Being refused admittance, they went to Parliament and spent an hour or two in the central, hall. They sent in cards to various Labour members, who came out and chatted with them. Suddenly before leaving the unemployed conceitedly began singing "The Red Flag,” rendering themselves liable to ejection for creating a disturbance. The police, not altogether surprised, approached the disturbers in force and unceremoniously led the men. who did not offer serious resistance, to the door. Following this scene, stricter rules will be enforced. Visitors will be forced to send in cards from the main entrance and will not be permitted the usual privilege of going straight to the central hall.
