Richard Gladstein, San Francisco, Cal., respondent. Mr. Chief Justice WARREN delivered the opinion of Court. 1 In this case we review first time a conviction under § 504 Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act 1959, which makes it crime member Communist Party to serve as an officer or (except in clerical custodial positions) employee labor union.1 Section 504, purpose is protect national economy by minimizing danger political strikes,2 was enacted replace 9(h) National Labor Relations Act, amended Taft-Hartley conditioned union's access Board upon filing affidavits all officers attesting that they were not members affiliated with Party.3 2 Respondent has been working longshoreman on Francisco docks, open avowed Communist, more than quarter century. He elected Executive Local 10 International Longshoremen's Warehousemen's Union consecutive one-year terms 1960, 1961. On May 24, 1961, respondent charged one-count indictment returned Northern District California 'knowingly wilfully serv(ing) executive board organization * while Party, wilful violation Title United States Code, 504.'

During American Revolution, legislatures thirteen statutes directed against Tories; among these large number penalties.15 8 history thus provides guidelines, wide variation form, effect ante-Constitution indicates proper scope Clause, relevance contemporary problems, must ultimately sought attempting discern reasons inclusion Constitution, evils designed eliminate. best available evidence, writings architects our constitutional system, Clause intended narrow, technical (and soon outmoded) prohibition, but rather implementation separation powers, general safeguard legislative exercise judicial function, simply—trial legislature. 9 Constitution divides Government three branches—Legislative, Judicial. This 'separation powers' obviously instituted idea would promote governmental efficiency. was, contrary, looked bulwark tyranny. For if power fractionalized, given policy can implemented only combination enactment, application, implementation, no man group men will able impose unchecked will. James Madison wrote: 'The accumulation legislative, executive, judiciary, same hands, whether one, many, hereditary, self-appointed, elective, may justly pronounced very definition tyranny.'16 11 doctrine separated powers provisions, entrust certain jobs exclusively branches, say task performed branch. example, Article III's grant 'the Power States' federal courts interpreted both exclusive authority over areas.

Alexander Hamilton 'Nothing common free people, times heat violence, gratify momentary passions, letting principles precedents afterwards prove fatal themselves. Of kind disqualification, disfranchisement, banishment acts dangerous consequences manifest.
