  • Collechon the CHALLENGE HE Struggle for Freedom Today Centers T Around the Activities of the Organized Workers and Farmers
    \ \"3 000018 American Civil Liherties Union Our fight is to help secure unrestricted liberty of speech, press and assemblage, as the only sure guarantee of orderly progress. fLORIDA ATLANTIC UNlVElCiin i LiBRARY "It is time enough for the rightful purpose of civil government for its officers to in­ terfere when principles break out into overt acts against peace and good order." Thos. Jefferson. 138 WEST 13th STREET NEW YORK CITY May, 1921 ~241 SOCIAUST - lABOR COllECHON THE CHALLENGE HE struggle for freedom today centers T around the activities of the organized workers and farmers. Everywhere that strug­ gle involves the issues of free speech, free press and peaceful assemblage. Everywhere the powers of organized business challenge the right of workers to organize, unionize, strike and picket. The hysterical attacks on "red" propaganda, on radical opinion of all sorts, are in substance a single masked at­ tack on the revolt of labor and the farmers against industrial tyranny. The hysteria aroused by the war, with its machinery for crushing dissenting opinion, is now directed against the advocates of indus­ trial freedom. Thirty-five states have passed laws against "criminal syndicalism," crim­ inal anarchy" or "sedition." Even cities en· act such laws. A wholesale campaign is on to deny the right to strike, by compulsory arbitration and by injunction. The nation­ wide open-shop crusade is a collossal attempt to destroy all organization of labor. Patrioteering societies, vigilantes, "loyalty leagues," strike-breaking troops or State Con­ stabularies and the hired gunmen of private corporations contend with zealous local prose­ cutors in demonstrating their own brands of "law and order." Meetings of workers and farmers are prohibited and broken up, speak­ ers are mobbed and prosecuted.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. Oliver: Oliver: Contempt by Publication and the First Amendment CONTEMPT BY PUBLICATION AND THE FIRST AMENDMENT* JOHN W. OLIVER* The legal problem presented by a discussion of contempt by publica- tion and the first amendment is the conflict between constitutionally guar- anteed freedom of the press on one side and constitutionally guaran- teed impartial trial by jury on the other; also involved is the concern of the judiciary over the maintenance of public respect for the law and our system of administering justice. Perhaps it is obvious at once that the conflict is not the immediate result of the simultaneous operation of these principles in our society, but rather the sometimes overzealous acts of judges and newspapermen done under their guise. Thus there are those who decry "trial by newspaper," the fate of a criminal defendant being decided by a jury whose minds have been conditioned by a barrage of pictures, confes- sions, purported testimony, theories of the case and discussion in the news- papers prior to the trial.
