EXTREME RADICALS
DEFEATED BY VOTE

For Dictatorship Of Prole-
tariat.'
(By the Associated PYess)

New York, May 1.-THE red flag
internationa1ists" of the socialist
party of America went down to their
first real defeat in the party's ma
tional convention here today.
BY the decisive vote OF 103 to 33.
the convention crushed radical
declaration Of principles, submitted
by the delegation from Illinois. which
provided for the dictatorship Of the
prolstariat" and Limitation of citizcA-
ship thruout the United States.
Bitterness OF invective marked the
day-long debate between the "cou-
servative" forces of Morris Hillquit
Of New York, and the radicals" led
by J. Louis Engdal of Chicago.
"You are afraid of the dictatorship
of the proletariat." shouted Engdaill
in closing the debate on the Illinois
measure. "Yet, you have the dicta-
torship of Palmer, Wilson and Bur-
Lesson. You can't fool anybody by
phrases, nor can you fool anybody
with the decorations of this conven-
ton hall, the American flag, the dag
of Wall street and the dictatorship
of Wilson.
There Is only one road to victory.
There is only one flag, the red Nag
of international socialism. We can
do nothing better than ally ourselves
with our comrades in Russia, Italy
and everywhere else where they be-
lieve in international socialism.
Nonpartisans Called
'Phrase Mongers"
Il see only one kind of socialism,
international, world socialism. We
cannot compete as2 phrase mongers
with the Labor party. the Nonparli-
san League, the Committee OF ~. or
any of the old parties, but we can
compete with all in the phrases OF
revolutionary socialism"
James ONeal Of Brooklyn, arguing
for the victorious Hillquit "conserva-
tive" platform. bitterly arraigned the
word Dictatorship"
"Are we scientific socialists? Or
are we dogmatists?" asked O'Neai.
"The time and conditions which ia
fored the Russian revolution must he
studied before we attempt to adopt
them here.
i don't like the word Dictator
ship. Let it go thruout the country
that you favor dictatorship of the
proleteriat and You cease to be po-
litical party. Introduce such a reso-
luton and you must do your work
under ground, or you will be driven
under by Sweet at Albany and the
politicians at Washington. who exer-
else such "a dictatorship. but tha,
would not excuse us.
Bourgeois democracy with all ats
shams and illusions permits in nor
NAL times decision by an honest ann
fair discussion. To espouse the die.
tatorship program would turn every
such democracy into an absolute au-
tocracy."
Discussion of the Hillquit "declar-
alton of principles" and platform
program will come up again tomor-
row and Illinois delegation already
has served notice it intends to figh.

D. HoWEIIS,
NOTED NOVELIST.
DIED IN new YORK
Dean Of American Poets and
Novelists and Editor Of Na.
6ond Magazines Passe.
Away.
(By the Associated Press)


New York, May 11.-Willla,n
Dean Howells. the novelist. died here
today.
At dinner given in New York In
1912 to do honor to William Dean
Howells upon his 18th birthday. Will
liam Howart Taft, then president of
the. United States, lauded the guest
as "the greatest living American wr1-
ter and novelist"
He was the dean of American let
ters poet, essayist, dramatist and edi-
tor, as we'll as weaver Of fiction.
Beginning his first book, Poems
Of Two Friends" just before the
Civil War, Mr. Howells had complet-
ed and published more than II VOL
umes at the time of his death, be-
sides acting as editor of various pub
lications, crossing the ocean eighteen
times in search Of material for his
novels, and writing essays, criticisms
and magazine articles.
Born in Martins Ferry, Ohio, in
1887. he served his literary appren-
ticeship as a composer, reporter and
editor on his fathers newspaper.
"1nwardly. l was a poet" said tho
emminent novelist in reviewing his
early experiences, with no wish to
be anything else, unless in a moment
of careless affluence I might 60 far
forget myself as to be novelist"
When % years old he Travelled to
Boston to make the acquaintance OF
Longfellow. Hawthorne, Emerson,
Holmes and Lowell. Though a boy
among masters. he became thely 'n-
innate, learning their literary yVadi-
tions and preserving many OF them
throughout his long life.
At the age Of "a he was app ,intsd
by President Lincoln as United states
consul ut Venice. He ,comh4ned. his
consular duties with literary work,
and produced LIS celebrated book,
"Venetial Life"
-Four years later in 1867, he came
to New York VITA his wife, who was
r 'nor G. Ma! Of verr.ont. and
'''em he had married in ra:l; IN
:'62. For two years he w:ctc eli.
torials for the New York Nation the
Times and the Tribune, and then
moved to Boston, where as assistant
editor he began his association with
the Atlantic Monthly, succeeding
James Russell Lowell as editor in
1872. At the age Of A he retired to
devote himself to his novels, witch
he produced for many years at the
rate Of two year.
When so years old, Mr.. Howells
found time to become contributing
editor. and later writer :or the "Edi-
tors Easy Chair" department. in Har-
rer's Magazine. For br cf period he
acted as editor of the .Cosn,o pol;tan.
DR.. Howell-he had received de-
grees from Yale, Harvard. Oxford
and Columbia universities though he
had never attended college-was a
keen students Of current events.
II cannot see," he declared, "that
the remedy for existing conditions
lies anywhere else. But II 1t is to ne
a remedy 1t must come slowly. Vio-
lent revolutions do not permanently
solve these problems"
On the subject of woman suffrafe
his opinion was decided:
1T is one of the most important
developments of this generation and
one of the most hopeful. The men
have made such mess of things that
II the women do not come to the
rescue Pm sure don't know what is
to become of u.s."
