Fighters Joined With Labor
Radicals, He Says.

The third party moyement failed In
Chicago, but is nor dead, Amos Pin

nitIoe OF forty-eight declsrss In a
statement giving his observations at
che recent convention and his COM
nepts.

elares. The labor party element was

HIS STATEMENT.
Pinchot's statement follows:
"a great opportunity has been
lost. But the world is not going to
the devil because OF a few hundred
people. differing as widely as the
poles, met in Chicago for a few days
and then went on their opposite
and irreconcilable courses. II was a
blunder, In fact a fiasco. whose hu-
morous side would stand out II 1t
were not for it's real tragedy.

new party because we fell down
completely in our judgment OF the
s'tustion. We did not realize until
too late that the men who controlled
the labor party. with which we pro-
posed to Join, were not bent on
new peoples party, drawing from the
whole American public, but on a
trades union party with two specific
puposes: First, to spread British
Guild socialism in the United States
and second. to destroy Gompers'
leadership in the American Fedora
tion OF labor by coaxing his follow
ers away from him into a party. the
formation of which Sam had bitterly
denounced.
