For Free Speech>
The Real Fiqht
(By William English Walling.)

This war is. above all, a. fight for
free speech. 1t is r th{t an all
powerful and exceptionally efficient
autocracy like hat Of Germany can
afford to grant a very limited measure
of free speech, in view Of the fact that
there is cry little freedom, of action
to the common people in public af-
fairs. The czar or the Turkish sultan
could not afford to grant SO much, for
the reason that their d%espotism was
less efficiently despotic. The German
system limits free speech at a thou
different points. One illustra-
ton will suffice. Every well-read
American knows that the crime Of
lese majeste is committed whenever
any person speaks in public with the
slightest disrespect of the kaiser or
mittcd only at those times and places
where it is absolutely certain that it
can do no harm whatever to the
Prussian ruling class. 1t is not ever
permitted to criticize the administra-
ton of the army; and the fact hat
the Socialists had 1000 witnesses and
$4,000 ~affidavits to prove her state
ment could not keep Rosa Luxembourg
out of prison in July, 1914, just before
the outbreak Of the war.
But, while this war for free speech
80 o"AHe o'' Az w ia" eoNSi
is profiting in all the free countries
from a mock 'free-speech fight car
ried on by pacifist organizations. all
of which are supported in part by
German sympathizers and in
part by advocates of the peace desired
by the German militarists. The i'm,
.portant point is that the German
propagandists. paid and unpaid, have
seized. upon this mock 'free-speech
fight" as the most hopeful weapon
with which to attack the democratic
governments. For every large meas
ure of free speech, ven in war time
to allow a highly dangerous
and traitorous free-speech fight to be
carried or without the slightest risk
to the participants. Whatever the
limits Of free speech in a democracy
at war, there is always enough free
dom left for this sinister purpose.
Thus, does the kaiser use democracy
as a club against democracy and free
speech as a weapon against free
speech.
If we can obtain permanent free
speech for ourselves and children only
by a temporary limitation of the right
of free speech during a year or two
of war, can any advocate of free
speech hesitate? Even the most
militant f~ree-speech advocates have
never claimed that an individual had
Grand Forks herald. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1916-1955, 1918-03-16

a right to rush into a theatre and
shout fire. Not only would he be
hauled into the courts afterwards for
this %offense, but he would be forcibly
prevented from repeating it If he
showed any intention of doing so.
In no organized society would any
individual be permitted to repeat any
spoken violation OF the right of others.
From John Stuart Mill to the present
day the chief argument of us who
have fought for free speech. and still
fight for it. has been that the remedy
for any wrong done to others lay in
an appeal to the curtis after the
wrong had been done. Not even the
o extreme advocates OF free
speech have ever dreamed of denying
his principle, for it is the very foun-
dation upon which the who.e struc-
ture of free speech rests.
But we can not deny that anyone
who had proven Il tendency to repeat
these offenses against the rights of
others or Of the general public must
inevitably be forcibly restrained.
Even in times of peace no individual
would be permitted to continue de-
fanlatory and libelous attacks on the
persons of the president and the other
officials elected By the people to ad-
minister the government. A very few
repetitions would lead Il heightened
prison sentences until the individual
involved would find himself spending
his life in prison.
If a number of individuals agreed in
advance to repeatedly commit such
criminal attacks, they would be guilty
of conspiracy to defeat the law. A
second repetition of such an offense
would be SO gravely punished hat it
would be mostly unlikely to recur a
third time.
there is no prospect or possibility
whatever Of free speech in any COM
munity except as it protects itself by
preventing violent n a~nti-social mi
norities from using this right utterly
to destroy the social structure and the
civilization upon which alone the
right of free speech a be made
secure.
