stated authoritatively at the Office Of
The Socialist party, East Fifteenth

was declared. is incensed at Martcns's S
refusal TO give it his approval as
against the Right Wing. The result
is that Mir. Martens is being denounced
by the Left Wingcrs as Counter
revolutionary and 'bourgeois.'
The fight against Martens started
when ne went to Chicago several days
ago address meeting 'lnder the
auspices of the National Executive
Committee, which read out Of the

information given out at the office Of

called upon Martens not TO speak
under the auspices of the National Ex-
