court DECISION
IN G|TLOW. CASE
SETS PRECEDENT
Opens Way for Attack
on Other Communists
(Continued from page y

CONTINUED from page u
He served 81 months and was released
on appeal to the state supreme court
May first 1922. The sentence was up
held and he was again remanded to
prison in January 1923 then he was
released on a writ of error appealed
to the supreme court in April 1928.
Must Go Back To Prison
The attorneys for GitIow are wait
ing for the full decision Of the court to
petition for a rehearing. But it is ex-
pected that this will avail little. Git
low will be sent back to the peniten-
tiary as soon as a court order releases
his bail. It is thought that Governor
Smith on the strength of the prece-
dent in pardoning Gitlows fellow de-
PENDANTS will act similarly in this
case. But it is also pointed out that
the decision of the supreme court
might have serious effect on Gov.
Smiths future considerations.
The Labor Defense Council, real
izing that the legal fight for Gitlow is
over is undertaking to initiate agita-
ton for Gitlow's release. Gitlow was
sentenced at a time when the post
war hysteria was running high. His
conviction was plain case of rail-
reading The court records read like
a fourteenth century heresy trial
In his dissenting opinion, Justice
Holmes writes, IF in the long run,
the beliefs expressed in proletarian
dictatorship are destined to be ac-
cepted by the dominant forces on the
community. the only meaning of free
speech is that they should be given
their chance and have their way"
1t is recalled that Judge Weeks In
his thanks to the jury for finding Git
low guilty, said of him, "a young man,
20 years of age. of intelligence, a
striking example of the educational
system of the country, able bodied, Of
full intellect, confesses he owns no
property-employed at SAL a week the
last time he was employed and never
accumulated any property" That
seems to have constituted the large
part Of Gitlow's crime in the eyes of
the judge whose whole speech of
thanks to the jury was on the theme,
protection Of private property.
cItIow Case Considered Test
The manifesto for which Gitlow and
the others were convicted was in part
a historic resume Of the proposition
that some societies are overthrown
by force. It was this section Of the
manifesto for which the five defend
ants were convicted, altho no overt
act or any intention of an overt act
was proved by the prosecution or
even introduced. Now that the word
Of the supreme court on its attitude
toward criminal syndicalist laws has
been spoken in the Gitlow decision
that has been looked upon as a test
case, the Labor Defense Council is
planning a great campaign for the
fighting Of the dozens of court battles
that will be the result.

so that things in China may settle
back into the old grooves, Secretary
Kellog promises that there shall be no
military Occupation" of China by
American armed forces, and he thinks
that the American forces now in
Shanghai will be enough to meet the
emergency of the general strike. But
he and his chief offer no pledge of
withdrawal from Chinese territory,
such as is demanded by the student
striker movement.
Momentary excitement has been
created by the Associated press the
DRY that Japan and the Soviet Union
are about to start war in China, u.s.
ing the Manchurian bandit-dictator,
Chang Tso-lin and the Christian gen
eral Feng as their respective imple-
ments. But White House and state
department deny knowledge of the es-
sential facts alleged-that Russian
munitions OF war are being poured
thru Mongolia into Feng's hands, and
that Japan is drilling Changes army.
The state department has made
public numerous reports from its
agents in the Far East, that the Sow
let ambassador, Karakhan and the
moscow adherents were encouraging
the Chinese demand for Liberation
from foreign overlordship.
But It is not at all sure that the
| Japanese government is going to start
civil war in China that may greatly
increase Soviet power in Asia. It
knows that tho Toxic politicians fear
revolutionary risings at home, and
will step carefully.
Very Doubtful.
| Whether Borah will be able to get
a majority Of his senate committee
to favor American withdrawal from
extra territorial power in China, dur
ing the coming session of congress, is
doubtful. Few of the senators have
studied the Chinese situation; their
feeling is that it should not be dis
turbed at all. If China does not &C
cept foreign dictation, then maybe we
should send more warships to per-
suade her. However, If staying in
China shall have been shown, during
this summers struggle, to be very
costly to the American treasury, that
fact will have weight.
Minister MacMurray, before leaving
Washington to take up his duties at
Picking, has received full instructions
from Secretary Kellogg. These in
structions deal largely with policy to
be followed in the tariff conference
which the foreign diplomats are soon
to hold, to decide what rates on i'm
ports China may charge.
