If you suppress one philosophy or idea. you can suppress others. therefore. the only guaranty we have of free government is free speech. In the last few weeks there have been various examples of violations of the right of freedom of speech. and I am going to give some of them. taken from the press. Out in California the other day a newspaperman went into that State to write a story of the lettuce pickers. and was summarily thrown out and illegally deported. They said he had " Communist literature on him." He did have Communist literature in his possession. because he had collected all kinds of literature for his story in order to give the whole story. He even had chamber of commerce literature in his possession.
