All Unlit Y btlltlmL Yh LMtn LAfLAlMd PURPOSE OF "RED RADICAL" MOVEMENT

For, the information of the American people, A. Mitchell Palmer, attorney-general of the United States, has collected an exhibit of documents published by the various branches of

the communistic press in Russia and the United States. These furniBh the' purpose, history and character of the Red radical movement, not hearsay, but undei the authoritative sanction of its own progenitors. Exhibit No. 1, is the report of Louis C Fraina, International Secretary of the Communist party of America, describing fully its antecedents, birth and projects, and follows the form of an application of the Communist party of America to be accepted in the bureau of the Communist international as a "major party." Exhibit . No. 2, is the manifesto oX the third Communist International adopted at Moscow, March 2-6, 1919, and signed by Comrades C. Rakovsky, N. Lenin, M. Zlnerzen, L. Trotsky and Fritz Platten. It is an exhaustive statement of the rationale,- principles and program of Russian Bolshevism and Its ambition for world wide dominion. Program of Party. Exhibit No. 3 is the responsive and co-operating manifesto, constitution and program of the Communist party of America. ' Exhibit No. 4 represents the form of application for membership in this party, containing the pledge to active enlistment in its seditious work. Exhibit No. 5 gives the Novomirski manifesto of the Anarchistis-Commun-ifits organized in the federation of unions of Russian workers of the United States and Canada, similar in purpose to the manifestoes of previous

ly numbered exhibits and containing particularly the declaration "We are (atheists; we are communists; we are anarchists. You all have on task to destroy the world of gain and create a world of freedom; tor all there is one means an armed insurrection and forcible seizure of all Instruments and all products of toil. Woe to the enemies of the laboring class." Exhibit No. 6, "Your. Shop" is an evidence of the sabotizing of labor and labor enemies prescribed In the communist program.

Exhibit No. 7. The state strikebreaker, of like use, but Aimed at the defamation of government and the employing class. Exhibit No. 8. A proclamation of the Communist International against the Versailles peace, designed to exert influence toward Its failure of ratification. Exhibit No 9. An example of the Russian Bolshevik propaganda among our soldiers in Siberia. What They Show. It is the contention of the department of justice that these . documents standing alon demonstrate: (1) That the present aim of the Russian government and its officers is to ferment and incite discontent, aim-, ing toward a revolution in this country. (2) That the entire movement is

a dishonest and criminal one, In other words, n organized campaign to acquire the wealth and power of all : countries for the "few agitators and their criminal associates. The Red movement does not mean an attitude of protest against alleged defects in our present political and economic organization of society. It does not represent the radicalism of progress. It is not a movement of liberty-loving persons. Lenine, himself, made the statement at the Third Soviet conference: "Among 100 so-called Bolsheviks, there is one real Bolshevik, 39 criminals and 60 fools." It advocates the destruction of all ownership in property, the destrustion of all religion and belief in God. It is a movement organized against democracy, and in favor of the power of the few, built

by force. Bolshevism, syndicalism, the Soviet government, sabotage, etc., are only names for old theories of violence and criminality. Want to Spread Idea. Having lived at the expense of the Russian people for two years, those speculators in human lives and other people's earnings, are trying to move to new fields in the east and west, hoping to take advantage of the econDmic distress and confusion of mind in which humanity finds itself after

the terriffic strain or live years or war. Its sympathizers in this country are composed chiefly of . criminals, mistaken idealists, social bigots and many unfortunate men and women suffering with varying forms of hyperesThe department of Justice, as far as existing law allows. Intends to keep up an unflinching war against the

movement no matter how cloaked or dissembled. It is determined that this movement will not be permitted to go far enough in this country to dis

turb our peace or create any widespread distrust of the people's government. False Appeals. "dur actions -have been and will be continuously met with criticism," says the attorney-general. "In so far as

that is founded upon an understand

ing of these documents and upon the-

situation which they disclose, we wel

come it, but the sabotizing of the pub

lic thought is an essential of this

movement, and we are asking you, after reading these documents, to aid in 'seeing that the American people are

not misled

"The natural sympathy of our people for distress in all forms is now being used by the friends of Bolshevism, in discussing the number of women and children alleged to have been left dependent by our deportations. We can assure you that the condition of the family of each and every person arrested has been personally examined into by the agents of the department, and that wherever there are dependents of these men they are being

(individually lookd after by the most

prominent charitable organization of their" own creed in their locality. "It is no part of the attorney-general's duty to look after the families of violators of our law. Hundreds of thousands of men are in prisons throughout our country without it ever having been urged by any one that the government is under any proper charge to look after the families brought into distress through criminal acts of their own members. But in order that the issue may remain clear, we have determined to see to it that no woman or child be tllowed to suffer for the conduct of their supporters. "Their next move has been to agitate criticism of the government's activity at directed against the right of free speech. I yield to no one in my anxiety that this right be preserved unclouded and unquestioned, but nothing so endangers the exercise of a right as the abuse thereof, and a clear definition of the right of free speech and of a free press sufficiently answers any criticism of the necessity which the government finds itself under in combating this movement. I ask you to consider the following definitions of this right, taken from our courts, and from the great leaders in the battle of the centuries for that right. v What Jurists Say. "Erskine (known the world over as the father of free speech), says (Rex vs. Paine, 22 St. Tr. 357): 'He who wishes to avoid sedition must not excite individuals to withdraw from their . subjection to the law, by which the whole nation consents to be governed.' "Mr. Justice Storey in his commentaries on the constitution, paragraph 1674, defined the phrase to mean, 'that every man shall have the right to speak, write and print his

in his rights, person, property or reputation; and o always, that he does not thereby disturb the public peace, or attempt to subvert the government.' - "Mr. Justice Vann (People v. Herr

Most, Vol. 171, N. Y. Court of Appeals Reports), states: 'The punishment of those who publish articles which tend

to corrupt morals, induce crime or destroy organized society, is essential

to the security of freedom and the

stability of the state. . . It does not deprive the state of the prim

ary right of self-preservation. It does not sanction unbridled license, nor authorize the publication of articles

prompting the commission of murder or the overthrow of government by force. All courts and commentators contrast the llbery of the press with

its licentiousness, and condemn as not sanctioned by the constitution of any state, appeals designed to destroy the reputation of the citizen, the peace of

society or the existe-oe of -the govern

ment.' Another Opinion,

" 'Judge Learned Hand, of the United States district court for the southern district of New York, recently said In a case involving the publishers of 'The Masses,' 'words are not only the keys of persuasion but the triggers of action, and those which have no purport but to counsel the violation of law cannot by any latitude of interpretation be a part of that public opinion which is the final source of government in a public state.' . "It is often stated that England is more lenient to utterances of the character of those here now complained

of, but I

Sims regarding the navy's part in the

war, including a "gratuitous reflection on the whole Irish race," and the officer's action in having made public official instructions of a hiffhlv confidential nature," as having led to a change in his views regarding special promotion for Admiral Sims.

fact that under the present law of

England, and under the law as it has existed for a century, these utterances have been pronounced seditious and made punishable by imprisonment. "It is the position of, the government that the wilful dissemination of such documents far from being an exercise of the right of free speech guaranteed to us In our constitution, is a step tending toward the absolute destruction of that right. Does any one contend that the right of free speech exists in Russia today, or that its exercise in Russia is not punishable by death? "Other propaganda will undoubtedly be started, and I recognize that there can be no real effectiveness or saving use in our legal prosecutions of sedition unless those prosecutions are backed up by the systematic and hearty efforts of all elements of good citizenship. There is a menace in this country. It may not be the menace of immediate revolution. "No harm, however, can come to the American people from intelligent contemplation of the situation in Russia and the woe that has been brought upon three hundred millions of people; of the situation of Bulgaria and tho loss of life and property entailed

"Edmund Burke has said: 'It is right that there should be clamour whenever there is an abuse. The firebell at midnight disturbs your sleep, but it keeps you from being burned in your bed. The hue and cry alarms the country, but it preserves all the property of the province. But a clamour made merely for the purpose of rendering the people discontented with their situation, without an endeavor to give them a practical remedy, is indeed, one of the worst acts of sedition.'
