STRIFE IN EAST END
DEPUTATION TO MINISTER ASSURANCES CIYEN (British Official Wireless.) Reed. 2 p.m. I’lClCi. Oct. 20. Ju connection with the recent disturbances in the East End of London aiding out of Fascist demonstrations, the Home Secretary, Sir John Simon, to-day received a deputation which urged the Government to take immediate stops to apply remedial measures. Ait official statement says that the Home Secretary took the opportunity of obtaining a fuller explanation of the proposals which the deputation desired to make. The deputation could be assured that the Government was giving immediate and careful consideration to the difficult problems involved, but he was not in a position to anticipate ihe announcement to Parliament ot the Government's intentions. Newspapers anticipate that the whole question alfeeting the rights of assembly and free speech, and the use of uniiorins by party political organisations, will be reviewed by the Cabinet before Parliament reassembles. An early announcement of the Government’s decision is forecast.
