Olin R. Moyle
Olin Richmond Moyle (1887–1966) was legal counsel for the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society〔"Master List of Special Collections in the Department of Rare Books and Special Collections", Princeton University Library, Department of Rare Books and Special Collections, (As Retrieved 2013-11-30 ), "Moyle, Olin R. (Olin Richmond), 1887-1966, Olin R. Moyle Papers, Consists of works, correspondence, three diaries (1931-1951), a scrapbook, printed matter, and newspaper clippings of Moyle, an attorney for the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society. The collection contains a typed manuscript with corrections of Moyle's unpublished book Christ's Glorious Church and descriptions of various legal proceedings, particularly those of Joseph F. Rutherford, in which Moyle was one of the society's attorneys."〕 from 1935 to 1939. He helped represent Jehovah's Witnesses in two cases before the United States Supreme Court, which set new precedents on First Amendment freedoms.〔 See also Lovell v. City of Griffin〕 A dispute with Watch Tower Society president J. F. Rutherford led to Moyle's expulsion from the religion.〔Herbert W. Stroup, ''The Jehovah's Witnesses'', Columbia University Press, 1945, page 26.〕 Moyle later sued the Watch Tower Society for libel over an article in its magazine, ''The Watchtower''. In his later years, he became one of the leaders of the United Israel World Union, a movement that sought to convert people, particularly Christians, to Judaism.
==Watch Tower Society association==
Moyle began associating with Charles Taze Russell's Bible Students group about 1910. In 1935 Moyle, his wife and son left their home in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin and moved into the Brooklyn, New York headquarters of the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society to serve as its legal counsel, heading its newly formed Legal Department. The department had been established by Rutherford to help Jehovah's Witnesses throughout the US mount court cases to defend themselves amid increasing opposition to their preaching and stance on flag salute. Rutherford and Moyle jointly represented the Watch Tower Society in various lawsuits.〔FindLaw, U.S. Supreme Court (SCHNEIDER v. NEW JERSEY, 308 U.S. 147 (1939) )〕 In 1938, Moyle won the Lovell v. City of Griffin case before the Supreme Court of the United States and the same year sent a letter to President Roosevelt condemning his support of "Fascist" Catholicism.
