today as it was 81 years ago when
passed by Congress.
The law has been invoked to secure
indictments in Harlan County. KY,
but it can be invoked to punish per-
sons in unlawful picketing or sit
down" strikes. The Federal Govern
ment. in other words, has been given
by Congress police power which
many people heretofore have insisted
belonged only to the States.
Language of Statute.
The language of the statute is as
follows:
Section 81 Criminal Code). Con-
spiracy to injure persons in exercise
of civil rights. If two or more per-
sons conspire to injure, oppose,
threaten, or intimidate any citizen
In the free exercise or enjoyment of
any right or privilege secured to him
by the Constitution or the laws of
the United States they shall
be fined not more than $4,000 and
imprisoned not more than 10 years" 4"
Clearly the Constitution assures a
man the right to work. the right to
"life, liberty, and the pursuit of hap
piness" Article V Of the Constitution
says that nobody shall "be deprived
of life. liberty. or property without
due process of law" This means that
the Constitution guarantees person
against physical violence, and the
statute quoted contains direct refer
ence to any right or privilege secured
TO him (the citizen) by the Constitu-
ton"
Praise for Department.
Civil liberties are Just as sacred
whether violated by terrorism applied
by employers in Harlan County or by
c. l. O. Union terrorists in refusing
to obey Michigan court iniunctions and
In intimidating workmen in automobile
plants. The Department of Justice
deserves much credit for bringing the
old statute into operation again.
incidentally the Roosevelt admins
tration will find in the same statute
q few clauses that make it virtually
mandatory that any known members
of the Ku Klux Klan be prosecuted.
The statute says:
IF two or more persons go in
disguise on the highway, or on the
premises of another. with intent to
prevent or hinder his free exercise or
enjoyment Of any right or privilege so
secured (by the Constitution) they
shall be fined not more than $1,000 and
imprisoned not more than 10 years.
and shall, moreover, be thereafter in
eligible to any Office or place of honor,
profit or trust created by the Con-
stitution or laws of the United States
The above paragraph follows i'm
mediately on the section which forbids
two or more persons to "injure, op-
press. threaten or intimidate any citi-
zen in the free exercise or enjoyment
of any right or privilege secured to him
by the Constitution or the laws Of the
United States"
Obligation of kIan.
The Ku KluX Klan has as its
fundamental obligation a conspiracy
not exactly to prevent religious free
dom or worship as such but to prevent
any Catholic, Jew or Negro from hold
ing governmental Office in America.
The Constitution says:
mo religious test shall ever be re-
quired as qualification to any Office
or. public trust under the United
States"
Thus it will be seen that the
Congress of the United States has al
ready spoken on the subject of what
tha Klan oath embraces. The Federal
laws make it crime for any group
to conspire to prevent any citizen
