convention Of the Socialist party in
Chicago, William Karlin, Socialist
leader, said yesterday on his departure
from the city to attend the convcn-

THE extreme left wingers' will be
expelled" he said. "The party, now in
its nineteenth year of existence, is
being threatened by extremists who
want Russian revolutionary tactics en-
ployed in the United States. Such tao
tics are considered by the party to be
unsuitable for the United States. If
they were adopted every party leader
soon would be in Jail and there would
not be vestige of the party left.
Ten thousand Let's and many thou
sands of other revolutionists from Rus
sia are demanding that the party adopt
the Russian revolutionary programme
and carry it out to the letter. This. of
course, would be farcica proceed
ing.
"We now are going to throw out
every member who will not subscribe
to legal methods. We cannot prevent
them from forming a new party. but
we believe all rght-minded Sccialists
will be with us" "
