momentous meeting in the life of
the party.
Two paramount problems both OF

either william Sulzer. former COVER

boom developed amazingly at sew

Against this Hanly tide, Eugene
w. Chain, the party standard bearer
for the last two campaigns. has
thrown all his strength, which in

There is an intense personal feeling
