WILLIAMS: "Well, the meeting was most cordial. The discussions were very full and frank. He simply put these suggestions to us. As a matter of fact, you could say he asked us to abandon the parades." REPORTER: "Do you think there is any fear now of violent eruptions next weekend?" WILLIAMS: "I don't think so. As far as the Orange Institution is concerned we never look for violence nor do we create the violence." REPORTER: "Yes, but seriously, if I may say so with the greatest respect, the mere fact of your presence has created violence in the past. You're a men of the world, do you think there will be violence?" WILLIAMS: "I do not. I would simply ask those who oppose our parades to allow us to exercise our civil rights."
