Roger Baldwin
Speaks in Mpls.
on November Ii

Roger Baldwin, Director of the
American Civil Liberties Union,
will speak in Minneapolis on Nov.
10 at 8 p. m. in the East Room of
the Curtis hotel on the Federal
prosecution of twenty-eight persons
charged with "seditious conspir-
acy." His subject will be "The
New Alien and Sedition Act"
The meeting is sponsored by the
Twin Cities Branch of the Work
ers' Defense League which is act
ing locally, with the American Civil
Liberties Union and the Civil
Rights Defense Committee in the
defense of these people.
Mr.. Baldwin is eminently quail
fed to speak about the trials. He
has twice carried the American
Civil Liberties Union protests
against the prosecution to Wash
ington to Attorney General Biddle.
Recently the ACLU addressed a
letter to Attorney General Biddle,
protesting the prosecution and de-
handing that the indictments be
lifted. The letter pointed out that
"the charges clearly raise the issue
of civil liberties in attacking utter
ances and publications in the alb
sence of any overt acts or even of
any clear and present danger with
the sole exception of the charge
concerning the organization of
workers defense corps that the
facts in regard to the workers de-
tense corps show that there was no
intent to do more than protect
union property against threats of
vigilante violence. Its activities
were entirely public and covered
only the few months when appre-
hension of attack was acute"
Mrs. Woodland Colby, prominent
in the Women's International
League for Peace and Freedom,
will be chairman of the meeting.
Among the other speakers will be
Joseph Gilbert, who was, himself,
a victim of prosecution during the
last war.

Emmett SCOTS
Story on Stassen
Causes Wonder

Minnesota Negroes read with
much wonder and some amazement
articles in the Pittsburgh Courier
and other nationally circulated
newspapers authored by Emmett j.
Scott which pictured Governor
Harold E. Stassen as a courageous
opponent of race discrimination in
industry, labor and government.
Some of the wonder ceased when
it was revealed that Mr.. Scott is
the paid publicity man of the Re-
publican national committee with
offices in Washington, D. C.
Scott made Stassen's remarks at
the recent state conference of Ne
gro Employment and Training in
Defense as the basis for his decla-
ration that Stassen's remarks were
the most courageous word q.
spoken during this whole period of
defense production by a responsible
state or national government Of
fetal"
Negro citizens of this state
pointed out that so far Stassen's
words have not matched his deeds
and that no Minnesota defense
plant with which Stassen is cred
tied with having any influence has
employed any Negroes before or
since his statement.
