manning charges against the officers and contends that he was denied his American right to speak The American Civil Liberties Union, the Workers Defense League and several other groups have interested Themselves in the case and similar ones which are said to have originated in the New Jersey town.
 According to a recent statement by James A Hamiu Corporation Counsel of Jersey City the Hague administration welcomes legal test of the validity of the Jersey City ordinance under which the Social is party was denied permit for an outdoor public meeting-at which Mir Thomas and others were scheduled to speak-on the ground that it would have resulted in disorder and disturbance between the Socialists and ant-radcal veterans. At the same time Police Chief Walsh says he escorted MT, Thomas out of town for his protection.
 Now the Federal government has interested itself in the case to if the guaranteed American right of free speech is being violated in New Jersey It is
 good thing that it s for regardless of what the true situation is in Jersey City American rights and privileges must be zealously guarded will be in the same fix that Federal Judge Clark of Newark re- ferred to recently when case emanatng from strike trouble before him. In defense of his action in breaking up picket lines Daniel Casey Jersey City Commissioner of Public Safety, had testified before the court that he decided whether strike existed that picketing was allowed denied in accordance with his decision, and that he instructed the police that they had the right to people out of the city.
 Federal Judge Clark made this comment the Casey testimony:
 The trouble with that theory is that if you make up your mind to the sort of people that are un- desirable and escort them out you are putting your self in the position that Hitler puts himself in'
 Right there is a bill before the United States Senate touching on that other sacred rght-freedom of the press. It introduced by Senator Sherman Mnton of Indiana and is aimed at placing barrier what publications may publish. The Senator used his example farm magazine which has been some what critical of the Roosevelt administration. In support of his bill Senator Minton quoted saying
 The tone of some articles in the magazine was ujustly critical of the administration and that while there nothing sensational in the nature of the articles of the statements contained subtle propaganda"
 Of course the Senator may have overlooked the fact that the editor of the farm magazine has per feet right to publish propaganda and criticize the administration if he wants to.
 As we recall it, it Voltaire who said:
 T wholly disapprove of what you say but will defend to the death your right to say it.

HOSTILITY TO

DELAYS ACTION
Fear of Opposition Delays
Reporting Bill in House
Until Sunday
SPENDING PROGRAM
is UNDER ASSAULT

WASHINGTON, May 3. (UP)
Fear of opposition by the house
rules committee to portions of
President Roosevelt's four and
one-half billion dollar spending
lending program today was re-
ported to be the cause of uneX-
pected poStponement in getting
the bill to the house floor.
Chairman Clifton Woodrum, D.,
Va, of the house appropriations
deficiency subcommittee announc-
ed after the final hearings on the
legislation necessary to complete
the recovery plan that next Sun
day would be the earliest possible
day the measure could be report
ed. Both he and Chairman Ed
ward Taylor, D., Colo, previously
+ had said the bill would be hurried
to the floor as recently as Satur-
day. Woodrum expected the re-
port late this week. He attributed
the delay to the fact that the sub
committee held exhaustive" hear
ings and could not complete the
final draft sooner.
Republican foes Of, President
I'Roosevelt's anti trust program
charged in the house late yester-
day that the chief executives mo-
nopoly message was based on
"class hatred" and "prejudice, "
discrediting his expressed desires
to cooperate with business in a
recovery crusade.
The charge was made by Rep.
Leo E. Allen, R., ILL.,, after the
presidents message, sent to the
senate last Friday, was read to
the house despite Republican at
tempt to dispense with the read
ing.
Allen also assailed President
Roosevelt's $5,OO0,000,00O lend
ing-spending-credit program which
was endorsed before house APP
preparations subcommittee yester-
day by Mayor Fiorello H. LaGuar-
dia of New York, President Will
liam Green Of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor and Chairman
John L. Lewis of the Committee
for Industrial Organization
The amount sought in the re-
covery program exceeds the "com-
bincd total income of the 1922
100000" men, women and chill
dren in the county, Allen said,
adding; :.
eff the president will cease his
attacks on private enterprise and
abate the fears caused by his
ceaseless mouthings, l am certain
that frozen bank deposits will be-
come liquid, private investments
will come out of hiding and the
American farmers and industrial
workers will march down a high
way to normal American pros
perity."
The monopoly message makes
MANY of us believe that instead of
having a constitutional govern
ment of representative democracy
based on certain fundamentals
and sound principles we have q
government of demagoguery based
on prejudice, class hatred and SEN
sationalism," he charged.
