Legal Aduice Bureau
Is 'Deeply Humiliated''

The New York Bureau of Legal Ad-
vice, which with It's counsel, Charles
Recht, was mentioned in the course Of
testimony before the Lusk committee
investigating the activities Of L. C.
A.. K. Martens, the Bolshevik "Ambas-
sador,". issued statement yesterday
declaring that the seizure Of records
from the soviet bureau here violated
the best traditions of America. and
adding that the members of the bureau.
as Americans, feel deeply humili-
ated."
The bureau, Of which DR.. John Love-
JOY Elliott is executive chairman. has
been devoted to the defence of CON
scientious objectors and others whose
civil Liberties are alleged to have been
violated.
"1n no case that we can remember
has such representative received such
persecution from officials, Federal.
state and municipal, as Mr.. Martens
has," said the statement.
Concerning the activities of Mr..
Recht, whose letter to Mr.. Martens
was among the documents seized, the
bureau says he was commissioned bv
the soviet bureau to defend sixty Rus
SLAMS arrested in Chester, Penn, in
connection with May Day assemblare.
Mr. Recht, it Is further stated. went
to Chester openly and had nothing to
conceal, his report on the case beine
addressed to Mr.. Martens only because
it was intended for his personal
perusal.

Violence Against Reds
Deplored by Clergynle,,

A statement issued yesterday over
the signatures of ten leading New
York clergymen deplores the tendency
to crush Red propaganda by mob vio-
lence. Disturbance OF radical meetings
last May Day and the raid on "The
Call" Office are denounced.
The following recommendations are
made:
"That all men and women of good
will set themselves to influence public
opinion through every available me-
dium against lawless measures by
whomsoever they may be employed.
"That they resolve to see that fair
hearings and just trials are given to
men, irrespective of their political or
economic opinions, SO that it may be
truly said that in America no mans
case, be he an l. W. w. or Bolshevist
or the most reactionary conservative, is
prejudged by an appeal to popular feel
ing, and in particular that they set
themselves against the counsels of
hate, whose effect upon the rising gen.
Grafton can only be to pile up future
disaster for mankind.
Since, in the judgment of the Attor-
ney General of the United States, ex-
isting laws against criminal terrorism
are adequate, and since free discussion
is essential for the exposure of eco
nomic and political errors, that the at
tempt be abandoned to coerce minority
opinion, SO long as it does not promote
disorder, and to defeat social change
by repressive legislation"

Alexander, pastor of the First Presby-
terian Church; Charles R. Brown, dean
of the School of Religion, Yale Univer-
sity; Henry E. Cobb, pastor of the West
