When Norman Thomas, Socialist leader, underwent a barrage of rotten eggs and ripe fruit Saturday night as he was about to speak against the policies of Mayor Hague, it was apparent that Hague's tactics had spread to the constituency of neighbor Mayor Ellenstein. "I watched this disturbance for ten minutes and at any time the police could have broken it up," said Mr. Thomas, and his charge is a serious one. Deplorable enough were the hoodlums who caused the riot and the War veterans who tried in vain to cancel Mr. Thomas...
