on this page Of TuE MENACE, Is cpOChal in its
significance. The League, as its name implies,
was formed for the purpose Of defense against
the malignant attacks Of those who seek TO de-
stroy our vital constitutional rights.
1t occasionally happens that a vigorous Of
fensiyc is the most eiTectual defense. In securing
the introduction Of the Lndbergh Resolution in
congress July 18th, 1916, the Free Press Defense
League assumed the offensive and struck the pa
pal system a staggering blow.
This offensive will be pushed vigorously. The
first move after the introduction Of the Resolution
was the writing Of a ringing letter TO each sena-
tor and congressman. This appeared in THE
MENACE August 26th. 1916, and we made an
urgent appeal 10 all patriots for the signing Of pc
titions 10 congress urging the adoption Of the
Resolution. The response 10 this appeal has bcei
prompt and gratifying. The petitions have been
