TRAITORS

CHICAGO, April 10 (U.SO.
Those who encourage and abet
subversive Movements in the
United States are, under strict
construction of the law in other
cases. equally guilty with the
principals.
This declaration was made yes
terday at the round table gather
ing of political and civic leaders
by Brig. Gen. John v. Clinnin.
A veteran Of two wars. highly
decorated in the World War, one
of the outstanding civic eXemplarS
of Chicago and of high rank in
the American Legion's American
ization drive, General Clinnin
called for the stamping out OF
'the Red" philosophy in Amerl'
can life.
Guilty of Treason
He said:
I'm law one who aids and
abets is a principal. There
fore. any ORGANIZED effort
which promotes the establish
ment of a new system Of gov
eminent which shall deny to
the people of this country those
rights and liberties purchased
and paid for with the blood OF
our forefathers is dislOyalty.
1.-THE attempt to substitute
for our present Government any
system that ignores the right Of
the individual citizen to a free
press, free asSemblage, for free
dom of conscience is but little
short of treason. Any effort to
accomplish such a result should
be prevented, If possible"
He charged that the subvers1on'
lists mouth phrases as freedom OF
speech and academic freedom"
in defense of their right to preach
revolution, at the same furtnerlng
a cause which ultimately would
mean the extinction of free speech
for all but themselves.
Praises Hearst
And so, he insisted, they are
hypocritical in their procedure
They are deceivers and false proph'
cts who should be suppressed
He paid a high tribute to the
Hearst press, saying:
"Our loyal press is constantly
pointing out the danger of these
minorities Selling control.
MANY of our papers are de-
nOunced because of their pro-
American policies.
"Among these are the papers
controlled by William Randolph
Hearst. / wish there were moro
papers like Hearst's in the
United States. In my humble
opinion, he is the outstanding
American patriot of this day, for
he seeks to keep his country free
