Julian Pierce, Socialist national
committeeman, was elected a dele
gate to attend the Socialist national
convention at st. Louis on April for
the purpose of determining the policy
of the Socialist party should the Gov
eminent be drawn into the war.
The delegate was instructed to vote
for a reiteration of the policy laid
down by the international Socialist
congresses, that Socialists should use
all their efforts to prevent war, to
intervene in case of war to bring
about its speedy termination, and to
make use of the economic and polit-
ical conditions created by the war to
secure better conditions for the
working people and rouse them to
the necessity of abolishing the eco
nomic causes of modern war by elimi-
mating production for profit.
A motion that members of the
party should resist a military draft
was voted down. as was also a mo-
tion prohibiting members of the party
from enlisting in the military and
naval establishments.
Mr.. Pierce was further instructed TO
undertake to secure favorable action on
the establishment of a national So
-cialist publicity department at Wash
ington, to advocate the. removal of
the Socialist headquarters from Chi
cago to Washington, and to insist
upon the appointment of a national
legislative committee to cooperate
