OUTLINING ALL
SuBvERSIvE GROUPS

It should be a foregone conclusion
That the new congress will approve rec
concentrations of the Dies committee for
Legislation outlawing all organized groups
In the United States which are avowedly
anti-democratic.
1t should be, but it is not
There are individuals and even blocs
! in congress which, by some strange pow
er of reasoning, believe that it is a wise
Pal1cy to let all subversive groups oper-
ate without hindrance, on the theory that
any restrictions on them would be reStric
tions on free speech. The trouble with
|uch reasoning is that it starts from a
hlse premise: that free speech" means
he right to say anything you please, no
latter who gets hurt. Those who adopt
lch reasoning make no division between
s,eedom and license.
Carried TO its ultimate extreme, such
trend of thought would lead to the
bnclusion that mob rule represents the
.hly true democracy. 1t would hold that
7 : law should be passed restricting the
ttion of any person, because every law
IS a restriction on freedom.
Free speech is a precious thing for
Americans. In its truest sense, our con-
stitutional guarantee of free speech
peans that we have, and always shall
have the right to express our Opinions
on any subject we care to discuss, with
natural limitations imposed by sensible
respect for the feelings of others.
I No one has ever attacked our libel
l6vvs as aimed against free speech, be-
cause the libel laws are intended to pre-
vent any person from maliciously and
Wantonly harming the reputation or bus
ineSS of another person Laws govern
ing slander are in the same category.
Surely our national government IS en-
titled to the same protection the ibe!
and slander laws provide for individuals.
Not protection against criticism, but
protection against those who would mat
iciously and wantonly destroy it.
We have coddled our enemies in our
own home too long 1t is time we recog-
nized that we will remain a free people
only SO long as we make provision for
continuation of our freedom.
Imperial Valley press., 1941-01-05

The census of aliens being COM
pleted, the United States can now
take stock of the problem of the
nonrcitizsn among us.
The total enrolment is expected
to exceed 4.500.G00 That means that
che person in 28 in the country
is an alien. The figure may reach
as high as 100000 We know how
many there are. who they are, and
where they are. It is now possible
ia approach the situation on a fac
tual basis.
First. a caution. The officials in
charge of this registration have
from the first stressed the fact that
there is nothing disgraceful or dis
creditable about alien status. This
has been a factual compilation,
and there is no faint suggestion of
culpabilty in the summoning. reg
isrering and flngerprinting of all
these people. There is no intention
to persecute anyone whose only
fault is that he is not a citizen of
the United States.
Director Harrison has also warn
ed officials, employers, and Others
who may now be tempted to de-
mand that aliens produce evidence
OF having registered that they
were furnished with no receipt on
registering. and that not half of
them have yet received receipt
cards from washington. This will
take five or six weeks. Further, the
law provides that aliens need not
carry receipt cards once received
