4 UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION In Reply, Please Refer to File No. mpa, Florida — Part ORM CONAN. ED 20, 1969 onic ais ae a recording of the message entitled "Let Freedom Ring" was obtained on June 11, 1969 by dialing St. Petersburg Telephone Number 896-1373, "Let freedom ring. What man should be so callous or irresponsible or just plain un-American enough to encourage and protect by judicial law the staging of ‘protest demonstrat ions in classrooms. One such man is William 0. Douglas, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court. Although encouraging anarchy in the classroom is bad enough, this is moderate compared to some of the behavior, both judicial and non-jugicial, of Supreme Court Justice Douglas. Justice Douglas has proved to be one of the most obnoxious exhibitionists in the history of our nation, America's left-wing press has puffed up Douglas over the years aS a great outdoorsman and conservationist, but as American Opinion Magazine states, quote, ‘His travels are merely a front for his advocacy of the straight communist line, which is —— unmistakably present in his judicial decisions, his writings, oO and his public speeches’, unquote. Do.las has hewn to the communist line so closely that it is difficult to distinguish him from Gus Hall and The Communist Worker, now known as The Daily World. He has praised the kangaron courts of Soviet Russia. When the Red Chinese were killing Americans in Korea, he called for the recognition of Red China, and the disarming of Nationalist China. Douglas has called for America to feed the Red Chinese, and he even participated in the communist-directed peace march in New York at which an American flag was burned. In succeeding reports, we will look into the highly questionable dealings and pro-communist career of Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas. For more information on Douglas and our revolutionary Supreme Court, send thirty-five cents in coin to Supreme Court, Box 1775, Sarasota, Florida, 33578. Let freedom ring."
