MOST MODERAT
PLATFORM BUILT
G Conservative Element Domin-
ates National Convention
Of Socialists Meeting :
Today.
VIOLENCE NOT WEAPON
Declaration Of Principles Do Not Suit
Radicals Who Made Bitter
Fight Against
Them.

| UNITED Press Leased Wire Service /
! NEW YORK, May 1O.-The con
sentative" element demonstrated its
domination OF the national convention
of the socialist party here today when
the tentative platform and declaration
of principles were drawn up.
| Both documents were considered
the most moderate put forward by the
socialists in recent years. Radicals
made bitter fight against them.
The statement of principles said
| "the socialist party of America seeks
to attain its ends by orderly and con-
stitutional methods" and "socializa-
ton of industries should be brought
about as rapidly as technical condi-
tions permit"
The conservatives were led by Nor
ris Hillquit and Seymour Stedman,
supported by practically all the east
ern delegates. The radical faction
drew it's strength from western social
lists, principally from the Illinois dele
cation.
The conservative spirit was shown
i'll the following principles adopted:
"The socialist party does not seek
to interfere with the institution of the
family.
so long as the ballot box and the
fright of representation and civil liber-
ties are maintained, violence will not
appeal to the people.
Violence is not the weapon of the
socialists, but of the shortsighted rep
reseltatives of the ruling class who
sturidly believe the socialist move
ment and ideals can be destroyed by
brutal physical repression.
