The statement is true. In the case Feiner v. New York, Chief Justice Fred Vinson discussed in his opinion that the Court has used the "clear and present danger" principle. The chief justice believes that the arrest of Feiner was necessary in order to protect "the interest of the community in maintaining peace and order on its streets".
