SOCIALISTS ID.
 NAMEE. V.DEBS AS CANDIDATE

NEW YORK, May (by Associated Press The Socialist party of Ameri- ca will open the first national politi- cal convention of 1920 when 200 dele gates from various sections of the country assemble here next Saturday, May 8. They will continue their de- Alterations for week. According to party officers nomination of candi- dates for president and vice-president of the United States and construction of a platform will be the chief busi- ness before the delegates.
 Socialists attach particular import anec to this years convention, be- cause of attacks made on the party's attitude during the war and during the investigation in Albany which led to expulsion of the entire Socialist delegation of five from the New York assembly. Unseating by the house of representatives Victor L. Berger of Wisconsin, convicted of violating the Espionage Act, also is likely to come up for discussion.
 Representative Socialists also de- clare that rights Of free speech, free press and free assemblage, which party officials assert have been en- dangered by "gag legislation passed during the war, are certain to receive attention. The ethics of application now of war measures designed to pre- vent strikes also is scheduled for de- bate.
 l. is believed that the platform may nlake clear the party's attitude not only towards the "ex-comrades" but toward the present Russian govern ment. During the Socialist trial at Albany, party leaders made it plain that while they held a sympathetic feeling for Soviet Russia, because it presented a field for a great social experiment they did not consider themselves allied with the Commun- ist Party, from whose philosophy they said they differed.
 According to present plans, the party will nominate only two candf- dates for national office. Eugene V. Debs, now serving d term in Atlanta penitentiary for violation of the Es- piOnage Act, has been repeatedly ad, vocated for the presidency by promi- nent party leaders. At the Socialist investigation of Albany, these lead CTS on the stand raised. the cry of from prison to White House" assert ed that Debs had been convicted for word and not deed during the war and compared him to Jesus of Nazareth.
 The convention will be limited to 200 delegates, it has been announced who will be apportioned to the various states in conformity with their So- ciGlist membership. Each state will have at least one delegate. New York, with 27 delegates, is said to be the largest delegation. Pennsylvania with 21 is said to be second.

There was some discussion of the ex-

which is along the line of the sentiment
expressed by Judge Crosby and others.

While this was being done the plain

horses, that the log was drawn violent

and carrying him half way across the

He says he was jammed and injured
