COMMUNIST EDITOR BRINGS BIMBA TO MEET LIBERALS

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Mr. Anthony Bimba, well-known American labor agitator, and Mr. Fred Miller, editor of the Communist paper "Freihelt", will be the guests of the Liberal Club at a luncheon today.

At 1.30 o'clock, immediately following the luncheon, Mr. Miller will speak on the Bimba case which has recently attracted the attention of the entire country, and Mr. Bimba is also expected to say a few words.

Mr. Bimba, who has been long known as a labor leader of decided Communistic tendencies was brought to trial this winter on charges of treason and blasphemy for a speech he delivered in Brockton. He was acquitted on the latter charge but found guilty and fined on the former. The case is now being appealed. The trial has attracted more attention than any, except the famous Scopes case in Dayton, Tennessee, which has been held during the last few years. Its chief importance lies in its relation to the rights of free speech, when those rights involve the spread of radical and socialistic doctrines.
