treason.
Ralph Horr of Seattle, who led the
invading veterans, told the Socialists
that advocates of force would be met
with force and invited the radicals to
"step outside if they wanted to fight
for their beliefs"
Horr reported from printed reports
Of the remarks Of ]. Louis Engdahl to
the general effect that his section of
the party would fight mot 100 Ameri-
cans, but under the red flag of inter-
national socialism"
L hope these reports do not repre-
sent the sentiment of your conven-
tion," Horr said, ''but if they do we
have come to tell you that it is our
intention to deal with these people,
We have had occasion in Seattle to
use machine guns to stamp out disloy-
atty, seditiOn and treason, and those
guns can be used again.
Cameron King, Socialist delegate
from California replied in behalf of
the Socialists. ....... -.....
1--WE appreciate the sacrifices the
disabled veterans of the world war have
made" he said, I'VE understand the
impulses that drove you to that sac
rifice. At the same time. we have
made sacrifices. We did not believe
when war was declared that it was
just war and because we so believed,
many of our comrades have been i'm
prisoned. As American citizens, we
claim the right Of free speech and
free assembly and we are going to
stand on those rights
The visit of the veterans was made
without disorder. After the talks were
made, the former soldiers withdrew.
