OSWALD MOSLEY’S PLANS
NO MORE PUBLIC MEETINGS LONDON, Dec. 21. Sir Oswald Mosley has' issued a statement declaring that he was not holding public meetings in the future at which supporters of the present Government could organise disorder, as they had done in the past. Repeating his earlier announcement that he did not intend starting a political party, but planned instead to concentrate on the publishing business, he said he was determined not to give opponents any excuse to suppress ideas in the name of preserving order. He pointed out that it was now impossible to take the party’s pre-war precautions to maintain order at meetings. The Conservatives, who joined the Socialists in opposing such measures, would have to face alone the problem of maintaining order at public meetings when supporters of the present Government refused to permit an audience to listen to any speech in opposition to the Government’s policy.
