Denied Right Of Assembly.

Western bound delegates have
been advised to proceed to Washing
ton. Following is the organized COM
mittee's statement:
1.-THE peoples Council has been de-
MED its right of lawful assembly I'M
der the United States constitution by
an un-American governor OF Mime
sofa. There is no time to enforce
this right in the courts. Consitiu-
tional rights Of the people are being
similarly denied in every state in the
union. One Of the peace purposes OF
the Peoples Council Of America is
to resist this tendency toward Prus-
siasm and to uphold the constitution
al liberty and right of the people OF
the American republic.
Therefore, the executive committee
has decided to transfer its meeting
place from Minneapolis to Washing
ton. The government of the District
of Columbia, is In control of congress
and IL our rights are denied us in
Washington they will be denied us
by the United States government and
not by the unpatriotic caprice of any
local official.
I'VE have telegraphed our dele
gates to go to Washington and we
will meet and organize our league for
democracy and a democratic settle
ment OF the peace terms in that city.
II we cannot find q suitable building
we will assemble on the plaza in the

further temporizing. Either the peo-
pie of the United States have the
right peacefully to assemble and to
