LEGISLATION of this kind embOdies
the philosophy of fascism and back
of false show of patriotism threat
ems the most basic of our cOnstitu-
tional liberties.
1t is a significant paradox that the
noisiest constitution thumpers of the
present day who see the constitution
endangered by New Deal legislation
designed to help the farmer and pro
tect the rights of labor to organize
are among the supporters of these gag
bills.
If legislation of the type spon-
sored by Messers. Mccormack,
Tydings. Russell. Kramer ct al,
were enacted into law, there
would be placed in the hands of
the militarists and munitions
makers the power to strike down
and destroy all public spirited
opposition. Reactionary judges
and corporation dominated pro-
secutors, to whom such propo-
sails as the income tax. anti-child
labor laws, unemployment insuI-
ance, and public ownership of
utilities are manifestations of
rank communism, could hurl
into prison and subject to hea-
Wy fine almost anyone they chose.
Gag laws like these can be
stretched into a thousand shapes and
made to cover almost any case. In
depreciation by Tory judges would
10 a wa r.
time espionage acts and other legis-
lation which virtually put the coun-
try under martial law.
Under the Tydings McCormack mil
itary disaffections bill, a person who
said the army or navy was too large
would be liable to prosecution. Indeed
the critic who said the army and ma
wy are too small would also be a cri-
minal!
The mother who advised her
son not to re-enlist in the army,
navy, or marines would be COM
uniting a crime and subject to
a $1,000 fine and two years in
prison.
Two congressional liberals, mem
beers of the House committee that
considered the military disaffection
in a minority report aptly assailed the
measure as "a brash piece of fas-
cism." Their report declared:
Criticism of brutality, mistreat-
ment, bad food, unsanitary con-
ditions, or anything of that char
acter, could be met by the most
brutal suppression, searches, and
seizures, and penitentiary senten-
ces. The second section OF this
bill is a pure case of unwarrant-
ed, unconstitutional, and bigoted
tyrany. 1t provides for every con-
ceivable violation of the rights OF
search and seizure, for the break
ing into homes of the American
people, and shows a reckless dis
regard of every American prlncl-
pie of liberty -. In time of peace
it is unthinkable that such in
Justice should be invited. And
such a law will invite abuses.

is not at war; Certain elements
are asking congress to pass a
law which is absolutely certain to
be used unconstitutionally. And

The Constitution is the basic law
the supreme law of the land. All
legislation passed by Congress must
conform with the provisions and
terms of the basic law, must be in
harmony with it, and not contrary to
it. 1t may be conceded that the Con-
stitutiOn does protect and preserve
certain property rights of the citizen,
for example:
The home of the citizen is protec-
ted against unreasonable search and
seizure.
Private property shall not be taken
from the citizen, without just COM
pensatiOn.
Property of the citizen shall not be
taken without due process.
| take it that even some of these
property rights, especially such as
relates to the home, are also personal
rights. The citizen Is attached
to his home, and will fight to retain
il.
Coming now to more purely per-
sonal rights, apart from property,
what do we find in the constitution?
1t guarantees to every citizen these
rights which deeply concern every
man, woman and child in the land:
Religious freedom;
Freedom of speech;
Freedom of the press:
The right of free assembly;
The right to be secure against un-
reasonable search and seizure of his
home, and person as well;
The right to free trial;
Excessive bail and cruel and un-
usual punishment is prohibited;
No person shall be deprived of his
life or liberty, without due process.
These provisions are found in the
first eight amendments to the Con-
stitution and have been a part of
it almost since the beginning for
nearly $50 years, and are firmly i'm
bedded in it. &
Later slavery, and discrimination
because of color, were prohibited
Certainly these rights and guaran-
ties touch every citizen. and relate
to things men hold dear. Men will
fight for the preservation of these
rights.
Will any one, after considering
these provisions, still maintain that
human rights are ignored in the
basic law?
The strong do not need these
rights so much as the weak and
lowly. The strong and powerful
usually can take care of themselves,
but the poor. the weak, cannot. To
them, these provisions, these rights
and guarantees are as the Ark of
the Covenant.

Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1936-02-20

In this way these rights are pre-
served. and the Constitution made
and kept living force. The court
has in the past protected these per-
sonal rights, just as much as it has
protected property rights. The hum
blest citizen enjoys rights which can
not be taken away.

1t is said that nine old men are
blocking progress and ossifying the
Constitution. What do these nine
old men do? Have they taken away
any of these rights?
When a law is passed by Congress
or legislature, which takes away or
cuts down some of these rights, where
can the citizen go to make complaint,
and preserve his rights?
To the Supreme Court-the nine
old men. That is his last resort. If
the law brought into question does
not square with the basic law, the
court says so, and the citizen retains
his rights.

duct Rossini's Barber of Seville

should be planned around the
works OF such old masters as
Beethoven, Mozart, Haydn, Ber-

The oil is in solid lake on the

LABOR ASSEMBLY
Great Falls, Montana
To Montana Labor News:
Dear Sirs and Brothers:
The Cascade County Trades and
Labor Assembly requests that your
organization give this letter your
careful consideration. The Social
Security Act became a Law on Aug
ust IA, 1885. It has come to the at
tention of this Assembly that en-
ployers in this State and all other
States are obliged to make contri-
buttons to the Federal Government
for the purpose of administering this
act which among other items includ-
es Unemployment Insurance. Each
and every State contributes to this
fund and your attention is called to
the fact that in the event that a State
does not enact a State Unemploy-
ment Law that the monies so collect
ed revert to the Federal Government
Information at hand is that unless
the State of Montana does enact an
unemployment insurance act before
January l, 1887, that some 100000
will revert back to the Federal Gov
eminent.
The State of Utah on August "a.
1886, held a special session of the
Legislature and on August 20, 1886.

operation. You will note that only
five days were required to pass this
measure. While the Utah Law may
not be just what the workers Of
Montana or Utah would desire it GER
tainly is a start in the right direc-
ton. This assembly is of the opin-
ion that a special session of the Leg
~islature could be called just prior tC
the conevening of the regular SEES
sion in January at a nominal cost
We are also of the belief that a tax
on payrolls will be instituted on anc
after January l, 1887. Due to the
fact that the employer and employ
ee will be obliged to contribute tc
such a fund we are of the opinion
that a move should be instituted tC
have the Governor call a speeia.
session of the Legislature for this
purpose. Copies of the Utah Law
may be had for One Dollar by writ
ing the Inland Printing Company
Kaysville, Utah. If your organiza-
ton is of the opinion that such &
move is advisable will you kindly
let this assembly know at an early
date so that State Wide action may
be taken in Unison.
Trusting that we may have ar
early reply, we remain,
