Charging that the government is
trying to terrorize the American

recent draft raid in New York. when
10000 men were arrested.
Johnson's bitter speech followed
criticisms OF the raid by Senators
Chamberlain, Calder, and Gore. All
declared it an outrage, totally out OF
harmony with American ideas, and
likely to do more harm than good.
THE law OF suspects, the law OF the
French Revolution, has come into our
lives" said Johnson, reading IN ac-
count of the raid from a New York
newspaper. Unless told you where
this thing occurred, you would never
believe IL was in the United states.
You'd say IL never could happen in

might. What's the reason for it?
