Paris -- About 3,000 people, mainly Muslim women, marched through Paris Sunday to protest a presidential proposal to ban Islamic head scarves from public schools.

The protest was the first in Paris against President Jacques Chirac's announcement Wednesday that head scarves and other conspicuous religious symbols, including Jewish skullcaps and large Christian crosses, should be banned from schools to protect French secularism.
