Convention RoundIy Con.
demns League of Nations as
Alliance of Capitalists
Against Workers.

Chicago, Sept. 4.-1n a declaration
of principles adopted, the national
socialist party unqualifiedly en-
dorsed the soviet republic of Rus
sia and the international socialist
movement and condemned the
league of nations.
The delegates jumped to their
feet and cheered for several minutes
when the paragraph was read ap-
proving the soviet republic of Rus
sia. The document compared the
Russian revolution with the Ameri-
can revolution of 1776.
The manifesto adopted read in
part as follows:
"We declare our solidarity with
the workers of Russia in establish
ing their soviet republic and we en-
dorse the socialists of Germany,
Austria and Hungary in their
struggle for freedom. We condemn
the counter revolution in Russia,
backed by the czarists and the en-
tente nations in an effort to destroy
the soviet republic.
1--WE approve industrial as we'll as
political action in the struggle for
the emancipation of the working
class.
"We condemn the league of ma
tons as the black international of
capitalism. 1t is the conscious alli
ance of the capitalists of all ma
tions against the workers of all ma
tons.
1--WE demand the immediate lifting
of the indefensible and inhumane
blockade of Russia.
1--WE urge the workers of the
United States to do all in their pow
er to restore and maintain our civil
rights to the end that the transition
from capitalism to socialism may be
affected without resorting to the
drastic measures made necessary by
autocratic depotism.
Long live international social

Democracy Learned in Army
Must Be Preserved, Theo-
dore Roosevelt, Jr., Says to
Returned Omaha Soldiers.
DISORDERS MUST BE PUT
DOWN BEFORE ARGUMENT
BoIsheviki, |. w. W. and Reds
Must Be Treated Right and
Treated Rough, He Tells
Large Crowd at Auditorium.

With his soft hat grasped in his
right hand, Theodore Roosevelt, jr.,
waved in true "Rooseveltian" man
ner at the big crowd that GREETED him
when he stepped upon the stage at
the Auditorium last night. He
smiled, showing his teeth in a man
ner that recalled his distinguished
father.
And when he began to talk his
voice showed that little occasional
falsetto note which was a peculiar
ity of the elder Roosevelt.
The Auditorium was nearly filled
and Mr.. Roosevelts speech on the
American Legion drew frequent ap-
plause. He spoke less than half an
hour. Following that a large
number came up from the audience
to greet him on the stage.
"The American Legion" he said,
us intended to preserve the democ-
racy which we learned in the army,
the Americanization which was the
effect of army life on many foreign
born soldiers, and it is going to see
that this country into which service
men put themselves is run on the
lines which they think are right.
Policies, Not Politics.
"Private and general are to have
equal standing and it is to be nom
partisan in politics, but with real
policies.
I'VE must have no class parties in
this country. There must be no la
Dor party and no capitalist party
and, for that matter, no feminist
party. We are all 100 per cent
Americans.
"As for the bolsheviki, the l. w.
w. and the red flag socialists, these
are criminals and should be treated
as such. Don't argue with them.
Treat them right and treat them
rough. When disorders arise the
duty of citizens is to put them down
at once and with a firm hand and
argue after order is restored on the
rights and wrongs of the question.
There are already about 5000
American Legion posts organized in
the United States. We have legal
aid department, an official paper, a
war risk insurance department, re-
employment department., a commit
tee at Washington to push such
legislation as ex-service men want.
Visits War Widow.
"The American Legion is a place
where the average ex-service man can
express his ideas. In your posts
you should discuss these questions
freely. And we want the citizens
of this country to know that ex-
service men and women will stand
firm for the constitution and for
100 per cent Americanism."
Waiting behind the scenes for Mr..
Roosevelt when he arrived at the
Auditorium was Mrs. Soren Soren-
