'The whole emphasis of the
committees meeting MONDAY
night, March 4 was placed on
the fact that a pamphlet on
revolution was found in a tran
sient camp. The tender solicit
tude of conservative senators
for the minds of all other peo-
pie in the state who presum-
ably possess less intelligence
than those senators, is very
touching.
Even the adult mind is to be
guarded against the pernicious
influence of books and pamph-
lets which contain doctrines in
consistent with the doctrines
of the conservative gentlemen
of the senate.
"No person is presumed to
be capable of reading such
books or pamphlets with un-
derstanding, and hence they
are to be withheld. Perhaps
even some of the conservative
senators would not dare to
read such books and pamph-
lets for fear that they would
have a subversive Influence on
the senator's and undermine the
confidence which certain vested
interests in the state of Mime
sofa have in such senator's.

from very recent issues of daily
papers in which the same gen.
tleman is quoted as being highly
indignant because the senate in

covered revolutionary literature
circulating among transients in
state emergency relief camps. He
denies the harmful contents of
these pamphlets and sneers at the
intelligence of committee men,
bers who can claim an un-

The Saturday press. (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1927-1936, 1935-03-16

The governor is greatly exer-
cised because the Senate investi-
eating committee persists in
delving into the matter of scat
tering communist revolutionary
literature through relief "tran-
sient" camps. Perhaps the gov
errors chief concern is for the
political future of one of his pet
appointees-Oscar Behrens. His
concern should be that the book
let was ever permitted to circu-
late at all, either in transient
camps or other channels.
I have been unable to secure
a copy of the booklet thus far,
but having some knowledge of
communist literature, I have no
reason to believe the slop under
the title. "For Revolution" is any
more fit to circulate than other
revolutionary booklets put out
for the purpose of melting the
american people to a revoH
against our form of government.
And if the governor has no bet
ter excuse to offer than he has
thus far offered, through the
daily press, he is on thin ice, in
deed.
Governor Olson is an attorney.
He should know-and if he |
doesn't, he should read up on his
law-that the spreading of COM
munist doctrine in this state,
whether by spoken word or print
ed page, is a felony!
Does the governor wish the
citizens of Minnesota to. under
stand that he is in favor of CON-
mnnism9 That he has any right
as citigen, much less as the
states chief exeeutive, to coun-
tenonee the oiolation of any lazV?
Governor Olson should know
that the circulation of any liter
ature that teaches the doctrine
of revolution against orr govern
n,ent is crime second only to
TREASON! Is he unaware of |
the existence of Our state syndi-
calism law? Are federal statutes. |
clearly defining the teaching and
preaching of communism, as fell
onies. stranger to hin1-or he to |
them?
There is nothing in state law
or federal that declares the cir
culation of revolutionary litera-
tnre is 7eaol even 7rhen sneh cir
cn1ation is confined TO relief
transient CAMPS! These laws, and
they are many and implicit, de-
clare that the spreading of COM
mnnist propaganda IS a crime
against the state of Minnesota
and the government Of the Unit
ed States!
The chief executive laws the
lash heavy upon the shoulders of
the Senate investigating commit
tee. Let me quote the governors
remarks, directed at the commit |
tee, as they appear in a St. Paul

too yellow to take up the fight !

l have, in exercising my right
of criticism, differed on more
than one occasion with the SEN
ate investigating committee. l
shall doubtless exercise that right
again. However:
1t is the bounded duty of that
committee to ignore the TRADE of
Governor Olson and dig UP every
scintala of evidence of a COM
nlN,,ist attempt to create an at
mosphere of autagonism against
the government of the United
States tn the so-called TRANSIENT
camps!
And it is the further DUTY
of the committee, when it has
in its possession evidence Of
if not conspiracy, then co-obera-
tion-between the communist
party or any of its representa-
tives and any state official, to
bring action for prosecution n,s-
der our state syndicalism laav!
| To do less, to fail to do this,
is to violate their oaths of office
and to default in their obligation
to the american citisens of this
state.
The peurile whine that COM
munist pamphlets were being
circulated without knowledge
(according to published reports
of Behren's testimony of their
revolutionary content cannot
stand. That ignorance of the law
is no excuse holds as true in this
case as in any case of any lesser
magnitude. There are no grounds
upon which the question of the
communist party's intent to des-
troy this government can be de-
bated! The communist party IT.
SELF admits the accusation, it
g1oats over its immunity from
punishment and declares, boldly
its intention of overthrowing this
government, and all other "cabi-
taistic governmemts"i
! If the governor of Minnesota
! doesn't know this, then it's high
time he was fully informed.
I grant the governors right to
distrust the motives of the in
vestigating committee as long as
it confined its investigations to
matters that might prove highly
embarrassing to the political par
ty of which the governor is head
that is natural reaction. Es-
pecia11y if; as it appears, there
are certain matters. which if
hauled into public view, might
be difficult to explain away. Be-

How many readers of Satny-
day Press know of the existence
of schools operating under the
protection of American law, that
have stats of teachers engaged
in the teaching of seditious litera-
ture - communist literature?
Well, more of you aCill know of
these schools, if you'll read Sat
wday Press, because beginning
with the next issue, I'm going to
reproduce some of the lessons"
taught in these schools-lessons
that defame our government,
laud the soviet system and teach
the destruction of the government
of the United States. This, I'M
derstand, is being done with the
full knowledge and consent or
because of the awful dumbness-
of our public officials.
Do you know, Mr.. Working
man, that there are a thousand
different traps and pitfalls set to
trap you into an acceptance of
communism? Do you know that
the workers Party" is a part
and parcel of the communist par
ty? That your membership in
that party constitutes an adfniss

are aUilling to gsve your life j
