Arrested on Monday for distributing flyers advertising last night's Communist rally, Kendall P. Smith 2G talked his way out of the Cambridge police head quarters when he convinced authorities hat the city ordinance requiring a pernit for distributing advertising matter a unconstitutional.

Smith said he cited the recent Supreme Court decision invalidating a similiar law passed in Jersey City, New Jersey, under the Hague regime.

Phil Frankfield, State Secretary of the Party characterized the current "red baiting" aroused in Massachusetts over Harvard's appointment of Grauville Ricks as "a fight against democracy".
