Cartoon Caused
Suppression of
"The Masses
Drawing of Root and Rus
sell Cited in Court Attack
on Socialist Monthly

Argument for and against the grant
ing of an injunction restraining
Thomas G. Patten, Postmaster Of New
York City, from excluding THE
Masses" from the mails, was heard by
Federal Judge Learned A. Hand yester-
day. At the end of a seven-hour ses-
sion Judge Hand reserved decision.
This, it is expected, will be handed
down early this week.
Gilbert Z. Roe, counsel Cor "The
Masses" argued that the magazine, one
of the seventeen newspapers and pc
riodicals recently suppressed by the
Postofice authorities for opposing con-
scription, had not violated the law, but
had merely expressed opinions
Earl B. Barnes, Assistant United
States Attorney, submitted affidavits
from Postmaster General Burleson and
William II. Lamar, solicitor for the
Postofice Department, setting forth the
reasons for barring the August number
of "The Masses"
Harm Seen In Cartoon
Department thought that the worst
thing In the magazine was a cartoon
captioned Making the World Safe for
Capitalism" which, he said, showed
Elihu Root and Charles Edward Russell
trying to ensnare the Russians. He de-
clared it might work great harm IL cir
culated in Russia.
But that cartoon merely expresses
an opinion" said Judge Hand. at is
not violation Of law. Do you take the
position that II any one made COM
ments on the Root mission that were
contrary to what Congress contended
/ it was for that he would be violating
the law? Are we TO assume that in
I passing the espionage act Congress in
/ tended to close the mails to any letter
or publication in which appeared any
/ expression Of opinion contrary to that
/ held by the majority in Congress"
81 am convinced that Congress had
that in mind when it passed the espion-
age act" replied Mr.. Barnes. "Opin-
ions are all right so far as they 60
but there is limit to everything"
"If that is so, doesn't that prevent
any agitation for the repeal of the con-
! scription law, and doesn't that iner-
I pIcNcHb
ment that might be contrary to the ex-
; pressed opinion of Congress" asked
JuGge Hand.
Mr.. Barnes replied that he believed
that any ideas expressed which were
+, harmful to the successful prosecution
of the war were violations Of the law.
The espionage act" said Mr.. Roe,
"was not intended to suppress political
discussion, but to stamp out the secret
vaccinations Of our enemies"
Mr.. Roe objected to the injection into
the case of the July and June issues Of
"The Masses" and copy Of the June
number of Mother Earth" These were
attached TO the affidavit Of Postmaster
General Burlesoh. Mr.. Roe pointed out
that the June and July numbers of "The
Masses" went to press before the pas
/ sage of the selective draft act. He also
declared that the only seeming justifi-
cation for the injection of Emma Gold
mans publication was a reference TO il

The affidavit of Judge Lamar revealed,
that the suppression of THE Masses
was determined upon a conference ar
ranged by the Postmaster General

Part of Judge Lamar's affidavit reads:
"The Attorney General after exam

deponent that its circulation would con-
stitute an offense under the Espionage
Act: that at said conference and imme-
diately thereafter Judge Advocate Cen

ent that the August issue OF the sald
publication would constitute an ofense
