the World, and Commissioner Vein
stock holds that this was a vlolatlo
Of the night TO free speech.
The commissioner finds that excessive
and shameful brutality was used against
the agitators, and he crjticises very Sc
verely not only the police department
but as well the vigilance committee
the public and business organizations
the chamber of commerce and the news
papers of San Diego generally.
He narrates many instances Of wan
ton brutality by the so called lawless
self appointed vigilantes of San Diego
and declares them TO be far worse law
breakers than the men whom they tried
to drive from San Diego. In one place
he tells OF having been in Russia, and
says that one time during the taking
Of testimony he wondered whether he
were in Russia or in the lund Of the
free and homo Of the brave.
He scores very severely the vigi-
lantes. who. he said, trampled upon
the constitutional rights of other men
and "proved themselves the bitterest
enemies Of law and order"
Were Not Armed.
Although in no wise countenaciDg,
and on the contrary very severely de-
nouncing the Industrial Workers Of the
World for what they did in San Diego
the commissioner finds that up TO the
conclusion of his Investigations they
had used only peaceful methods toward
their extraordinary end; that although
200 of them were arrested, there was
not pistol or weapon OF any kind
found on any one,
And he goes on to say that the rep
resentative "citizen" who has com
mitted these lawless acts against the
law and the constitution and against
the right Of free speech and against
the liberty Of the citizen, has Gin the
eyes Of the law made himself Grim

whom he brands as anarchists, 'reyo
lutionists' and the scum Of the
earth. -
Contrasting the ofRenscs, he calls at
tention to the fact that the extremes

"by these alleged outcasts" is not to
