SOCIALIST NATIONAL
CONVENTIONS WORK
Committee Unable To Agree On
Question OF Stricter Asiatic
Expulsion.

indianapolis, Ind, May 14-After the
election of committees III resolutions
platform and constitution, the socialist
national convention was today to be-
gin consideration of reports of spe-
cial committees on immigration, ex-
tension of socialist propaganda among
farmers and a campaign for the votes
Of women in states that LAY granted
them the ballot.
The, committee on immigration has
Deer unable to agree and majority and
minority reports viii be submitted. The
majority report declares the party
should advocate s~tricter Asiatic exclu-
sion IN the ground that owing to So
cial and racial pecularities the Asiatic
races are the most difficult to mould
into an effective revolutionary body:
that the capitalists welcome this immi-
grafton and that its effect upon econ
omic and political class organizations
Is destructive"
THAT, the idea of national %seclusion
10 fallacious and Asiatic immigrants
can and will be arrayed against the
capitalist class" is maintained in the
minority report. 1t denies that the
workers of the Pacific coast demand
stricter Asiatic exclusion.
Candidates for president and vice
president are to be nominated on Fri
day and the convention will adjourn
Saturday.

KNOWS NOW
Doctor Was Fooled by His Own Case
For a Time.

It's easy to understand how ordi,
. nary people get fooled by coffee when
doctors themselves sometimes forget
the facts.
A physician speaks of his W expe.
Tience:
II had used coffee for years and really
did not exactly believe 1t was injuring
me although I had palpitation of the
heart every day. (Tea contains caf-
feine-the same drug found IN coffee
and is Just as harmful as %coffee.)
Finally one day a severe and al
most fatal attack of heart trouble
and coffee, using Postum instead, and
since that time I have had absolutely
no heart palpitation except on n or
two occasions when I tried a small
quantity of coffee, which caused severe
Irritation and proved to me l must let
1t alone.
when we began using Postum 1t
seemed weak-that was because we
did not make it according to directions
but now we put a little bit Of but
ter in the pot when boiling and allow
the Postum to boil full Is minutes
which gives it the proper rich favor
and the deep brown color.
Il have advised a great many of
my friends and patients to leave of
coffee and drink Postum, in fact l daily
give this advice" Name given by
Postum Co., Battle Creek. Mich.
Many thousands Of physicians use
Postum in place of tea and coffee in
their own homes and prescribe it to
patients.
There's a reason" and it is explain
ed in the little book, THE Road to
MELVILLE" in pkgs.

Conservation of Political Energy

will be getting Hawaii tangled up IL
another national campaign Hawaii is
just getting out from under the effects
of the convention last April. and al
though the operation was entirely SAG
cessful. the patient is still recovering.
If Carter and Atkinson would make
up their minds that the situation right
here i'm Hawaii needs attention first,
and would get in and help fight the
battle this fall for efficiency in public
office, they would be mighty forces for
real progressiyism.
This isn't intended to be any p1lit-
ical discussion. 1t is simply friendly
commentary on the wonderful chance
for some young Republican stalwart to
grasp fistful of the loose odds and
ends of Republican politics that have
been floating around and getting tam
gled up for nearly year, to handle
them carefully but firmly, and to be
the kind of leader thar men can fol-
low with respect and admiration in
stead of fear and trembling.
