Overwhelm Soviet AgitatorS in
Fight TO Control Con-
vention Here.

The Socialist National Convention
in It's hall at 127th Street and Fifth
Avenue made so mighty demonstra-
ton against the use OF Russian meth
DDS in this country that people rushed
in from the streets to see what II was
all about.
The speech that brought the most
tumultuous applause was by Munich
pal Justice Jacob Panken, who de-
Tended the conservative platform" as
drawn by the Morris Hillquit COM
mittee. He declared that Russian
methods do not apply to this country.
He denounced the proposed pro-
letariat dictatorship. He declared
that the Socialist Party would lib
crate the country the way the Repub-
lican Party liberated the slaves in the
time of Lincoln. And. the outburst
Of applause, one of the most remark
able that New York has known in
political gatherings, told the story
of how the convention stood.
Victor Berger, the unseated Con-
gressman, spoke against the dictator
ship, saying he had had all the ex-
perience he wanted of that sort OF
thing. He denied that America has
any such thing as a proletariat and
said anybody outside of New York's
East Side knew this to be true.
There were two platforms before thC
convention. One was the Hillquit
document submitted yesterday, the
other submitted to-day by the Illinois
delegation including Irwin st. Johr
Tucker, Scott Nearing, ]. Louis Eng.
dahl, William F. KrlIse and Samue
Holland. All of these but Nearint
and Holland have been convicted
under the Espionage Act. They de
nounced the Hillquit platform as, TO,
conservative and mot socialistic" ans
were cheered by many supporter
who hissed the Conservative
speeches.
August Claessens, one of the ouste
New York Socialist Assemblymer
denounced the Illinois document q
"a fraud and fake" 1t was draw
by ]. Louis Engdahl, William ]
, Kruse, Samuel Holland, Scott Near
t ing and Irving st. John Tucker. A
0 OF these but Nearing and Hollan
have been convicted under the Es
pionage Act.

WASHINGTON, May 11.-opening
the fight against the Republican plan
TO end the state Of war by joint res
olution OF Congress, Senator Nc
Cunnber of North Dakota, a RepIb-
ucan member Of the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee, declared in the
Senate to-day that such step would
bring dlshonor upon the nation, as 1t
would involve desertiOn Of Americas
associates in the war.

issue I would be greatly concerned

Senator McCumber challenged
many of the contentious OF Senator
rKnox, made in the former Secretary
Of States address last week. While
agreeing that Congress has the power
to repeal declarations OF a state OF
war he denied vigorously that peace
actually existed.

cARRANZA WENT BACK ON

But Carranza went bnok on both
his friends. His attitude in the pre-
nminary elections was so raw that IL
completely alienatod both obregon

machinery fdr his swn purposes agd
would not permit "a fair and froe
election. So they determined to get
rid OF him And tho bloodless revo-
luton is the result IS a working
agreement between Obregon and Con
zalcs.
The entire Mexican army was de-
voted either TO Gonzales or Obregon,
under whom they fought 60 many
battles. 1t was easy for those two
Generals to take possession OF Mexico
by military force and with a mini
mum of fighting. Carranza, "A civil
ian, never was held In much esteem
By the military.
