LOYALTY TO VOTE

We yield to no man, in public office in or out, in our loyalty to the constitu- ton and institutions of this republic; no self-respecting man has questioned or dare question that loyalty.
 We are for evolution, not revolution, for ballots. not bullets; for majority rule. no class dictatorship of bolshe- vism, plutocracy or of the profiteer.
 We oppose this bill because every legitimate purpose for which it is framed lis already covered by existing law. Its iilegitimate features. which compose two thirds of the draft, are utterly auto cratic, ilnperialistic and un-American'
 Referring to Attorney General Pal mer's contention that new laws are nee essary to reach the individual who ad- vocates opposition to the government by violence, Mir. Gompers cited section i of the penal code and asked
 %If revolution is afoot, why has not the department of justice made prosecu- tions under that section?
 Section of the bill, unbelievable as it may seem, he continued, 'easily con- strued to mean. if indeed it does not make it, a crime, so vague and involved is the terminology, to wear in public any button of an organization whose purpose it is to secure an amendment to the con stitution of the United States or any existing federal law

If the American people. and in fact d majority of the members of congress. ' continued MT. Gompers. were awake to the dangers concealed in this bill. a storm of indignation would sweep the nation.
 It has been widely advertised that this measure protects free speech fully, but prevents advocacy of forciole revo- lotion, bolshevism and anarchy. In fact. IL would perpetuate an autocratic cen sorship over the entire American press.

TOO MUCH POWER IN JUDGE

If a hostile federal judge should de- eide that any particular strike has a politica, end in viewsand the striking union is affiliated with the American Federation of Labor. the American Fed eration of Labor would be compelled at once to expel the striking union or it. self become unlawful And it would be at once become a crime punishable by tip to 20 years Imprisonment or up to s2o.000 fine both, for any person any where in the nation to rent a hall or business office to any labor organiza ton affiliated with the American Federation of Labor.
 Tn general this is bill against opin- ion and advocacy. It Hoposes to set up a government of law. but of men. because under it's vague and sweeping terms no man would know what the law is until the federal judges interprets mining.
 .sThe inevitable result of this bill. if enacted. would be to spread reign of terror over the United States, fill the country with spies and special agents qf the department of justice. fill the land vita suspicion and heresay hunting would quickly become a national in- dustrN If the principles of Magma Cha ter and the Declaration of Independence and the constitution of the United States are not worth fighting to preserve, have wholly misconceved what patriot ism and love and freedom means.'

GETS CENSORSHIP OF PRESS

Section 6 perpetuates the censorship Of [ the postmaster general over all news papers and printed matter. The so- called Borah amendment, providing court review of the postmaster general s l action, is souQd in principle, but is in-
 adequate to ;9ord protection as prac- tical matter to a publisher against the autocratic action of the postmaster gen. eral.
 More amazing still the proviso sets 1 up censorship over any mans private correspondence by the postmaster general. 1t would be criminal for example, for a man to send letter advocating resis- tance to an injunction issued by a fed- eral judge ordering workers on strike to go back to work. Moreover. this section can be used to prevent the organization of colored labor on the grounds of in citing racial prejudice, the intended or proba ble result of which appeal is to
 cause rioting. etc. No doubt advocacy or opposition to the cause of Irish free- dom would in some sections be pro-
 hibited.
 Section would exclude from this country, even for libraries, and investi- gators. large portion of the labor liter ature of Europe.
 Sections 9, 10 and il contain grave threat aimed at labor.
 Section makes unlawful every asso- citation which seeks, directly or indirectly, to make political change by injury to private property. It is unhapply true that even legitimate strike may result in property rights in his business. The re- malsely heralded as attempts to over. throw 0iI1' rove p,apt
