When Is American Freedom? The Constitution of the United States guarantees to' all

citizens the right of free speech,

and the right of petition. It also provides that both sides shall have their day in court. " ' iLet's see how this 'is working: '. "' ' ' l. Henry Wallace schedules a speech in ; Washington. The un-American activities committee of Congress announces that it will have "spotters" at the meeting to see if any

Communists are present. This

ple away, it is a challenge and a threat to the right of assembly and free speech. . ' ' ' 2. The same un-American activities 'committee 'smears the Southern Conference for Human Welfare as a Commun-r ist front without giving officials of the conference a chance to be heard. This is un-American because it deprives a man of his day in court. ' ; -'' "3. When the conference chairman protests to Congress of such unfair action, Rep. Rankin of Mississippi moves that the protest telegram be stricken from the record. The House upholds him by a substantial vote. This is denying a citizen his right of petition for grievance. r 4. The State Department, which is rightly campaigning in Congress for funds to keep the Voice of America alive in foreign countries, is holding "off the record" meetings with church and other community leaders in Washington to sell them on the Truman Doctrine. They are pledged to "not tell the press" what they hear. Reporters ard denied admittance to the meetings. This is clearly an oblique infringement , of the right of free press. It could well be the germ of a movement to turn the people against the press. Once the free press is destroyed, democracy, fails. Dictators breed in a . climate that'is devoid of a critical press that can expose them. 5. The Department of Justice, which is sending a Freedom-Train through the nation to emphasize our Tights under the Constitution, has put a ban on photographers taking pictures of prisoners in federal custody. There is one case already on record where justice has been defeated because of such-a stupid censorship. ' - ; ""' These nref all events of the past week. Think them over
