Federation of Labor; S. P. Weston; of Seattle, representing the American Newspaper Publishers' association; Zachariah Chafee of Harvard univer^ sity, and others. Frequent verbal tilts between com- j mittee members and witnesses enlivr ened the proceedings. At the end of the hearing a letter was read from Attorney General Palmer, who was j unable to appear, in which fte stated; he was "impelled to say that neither of the bills accords with my views as rto what the legislation ought to be.'' i As a substitute the attorney recommended a bill which he drafted last November and which was intro- j <iuced several weeks ago by Repre* sentative Davey, Democrat, of Ohio. This measure provides fines not exceeding: $10,000 and imprisonment for 20 years for persons convicted of an attempt to overthrow the gov-! Vv T* ^ ' . uy luitc.

This is not reconstruction, it is depression. It will r\ot kill off desire to revolt, it will stimulate it." Before concluding, Mr. Gompers was given permission by the committop to renlv to attacks on his catrio - w ? tr -*> ? ? tism which he said had been made by members of congress. Telegrams from 30 newspaper publishers protesting against the sections of the bill which they said would limit the freedom of the press were read into the record by Chairman Pnrrmhplh ? r ? - ? James Weldon Johnson, former consul to Nicaragua, protested against the bill in behalf of the National Association fcr Advancement of Colored people. "Under sections of the bill the mere printing of facts and data about lynching might render a publication non-mailable," he said. Harvard Men Heard. Zacharia Chafee of Harvard university said sufficient laws existed to stamp out radical activities. The ban on the display of red flags, he said, would prohibit the display of the crimson banners. There are reported to be many "parlor Bolshevists" among college professors said Chairman Campbell: "Are there any at Harvard?" "Not more than elsewhere," Chafee relied, "but what of it?" "Do these Socialists believe in our form of government?" asked Campbell. "I think so," Chafee replied, "but why couldn't we nationalize our in- ( dustries and our form of govern- j ment?" j "Why have congress then?" asked Campbell. "To ruin the railroads," was the reply. "Do you advocate the change of government by force," asked Representative Snell, Republican. "I do for some governments," Chafee said. "In the case of Russia [ would. But not in this country." Howard A. Davis of Boston presented a petition from the Harvard j Liberal club of that city, which stated | sassage of the measures "would be a | alamity forever discrediting those; .vho pass it."

Dr. Tejadas and other dele- j gates pointed out that as Europe j1 acted as the financier of Latin- j: America before the war, many of the j Southern republics were indebted to \ many European nations needing relief J and were in a position to pay those j. debts with the needed commodities, j The United States, it was asserted, j' would confer a double benefit by al- j s lowing the Latin-American countries! to act as the "middle men" in pro-; i.
