BATTLE RACES
At CONVENTION
OF SOCIALISTS
Left Wing Delegates Split
With Conservatives-Reed
Leads Insurgents.
(By Associated Press)


CHICAGO, Aug. 30.-Strife develop
ed in the ranks of the Socialist party,
which precedes a split, before Adolph
Germer, national secretary, was able
to call to order the opening session of
the national convention here today.
Delegates of the so-called left wing
of the party were forcibly put out OF
the hall by policemen because Secre.
tary Germer said they were trying to
rack the convention by seating deleg.
ates who had no credentials.
A fist fight between two delegates
threatened for a time, to become a
free-for-all, but policemen were able to
stop it, before any more Of the west
wing delegates could take part.
Hold Closed Session.
Immediately after expulsion from
the convention left wing supporters
led by John Reed Of New York, held a
meeting to decide on a course of ac-
ton. Reporters were not allowed in
the meeting or the main convention
where the process of seating delegates
went on.
1--WE are revolutionary socialists
and we don't want to talk to any re-
porter or member of the capitilistic
Glass;" Reed declared before he closed
the doors Of the west wing caucus.
Members of the left wing said If
they were not recognized In the con.
vention they would organize a new
branch Of the party.
Follow Russians.
Although many delegates were not
clear as to the difference between the
left and the right wings of the party
the principal difference appeared to be
that the left wing wants practically a
proletariat declaration, and some even
went so far as to suggest the abolish.
ment Of political action.
1t was explained that the breach In
the party had been pending for some
time and the trouble today is the re-
suit of the schism. Some of the left
side want to adopt policy modelled
after the Russian socialists.
The convention is scheduled to last
week Secretary Germer said a ma
tional platform would be adopted, bu.
that probably no presidential candi
date would be named. Approximately
$50 delegates we're present today.

PROFESSORS OF
FINANCE WARN
NO BANK LOAN
u. of c. and Stanford Experts
Point the Way to Sound
Reconstruction Finance

The banks OF the United States must
be left free to finance the reconstruc.
ton OF productive enterprise and must
not be cluttered up with the Victory
Liberty Loan. That is the composite.
thoughtout opinion OF two of the
Vests most noted professors Of
finance. Carl G. Plehn, professor of
finance in the University of California,
and Murray l.. Wiliman. head OF the
department OF economics and finance
OF Stanford University. Both agree
that the money needed TO finish paying
for the war should not come out OF
working capital but should be raised
out of individual savings OF humble
and wealthy.
IF the people take the Loan, as they
must" Professor Plehn says, the
banks will be left free to lend to the
manufacturer. the farmer. the grocer.
the butcher, and the baker, so that
they can get busy again on peace
time basis. Then production and bust
ness will grow and, by the formula,
prices will come TO normal. II we
leave It to the banks they will have
no funds left for business. big or lit
tie. We, ourselves. will not profit and
the day OF our redemption will only be
postponed"
Professor Wildman. whose ability
caused him to be called from Stan
ford to Washington for war finance
service. agrees with the California
economist, adding: 1T would be a
grave mistake to saddle the banks of
the country with the Victory Loan at
this time"
When two professors agree, It's
time to sit up and take notice. When
two professors not only agree with
each other, but agree with the Govern.
ment, that settles II. Finance Ia their
business - particularly Government
finance. They have spent their lives
studying II and are paid good salaries
70. teaching the principles of II to the
men who are going to run the nation
tomorrow.
Finance is not the business OF the
wiseacre who screws down the cor.
ners of his mouth and says. Let the
banks do It," Better take the advice
OF scientists who know.
