Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides the full record of the public hearing convened by the Judiciary Committee of the New York State Assembly in January 1920 to investigate charges brought against five members of the Socialist Party elected to the Assembly in November 1919. The charges alleged disloyalty to the US Government and the fomenting of industrial unrest, and the Assembly investigation was highly controversial in its day and has been ever since. The book includes the opening statement by the Assembly Judiciary Committee Chairman, Louis Martin, as well as the minutes of the hearings, offering an unparalleled look at how the Committee, the Assembly members under investigation, their lawyers, and the public, understood the meaning of American constitutional rights in the aftermath of World War I and the Russian Revolution. As such, this book is a must-have for scholars interested in American politics and law during the early part of the 20th century.
