PITTSBURGH, Aug. 21.-Indorse-

certain reservations, by the Socialist
party of the United States, was an
nounced here to-day by the executive
committee as the outcome of referen-

the national convention held in New
York last May.
1t was also announced that the party,
In another referendum, had declared

Russia.
The committee gathered here at the
call of Otto Branstetter, executive
secretary, of Chicago, to plan for the
Presidential campaign and hear re-
ports of committees in charge of
the referendums. On the question of
adopting the dictatorship of the pro-
letarat," it was said that a majority
Of the New York convention was
against it, but minority report was
submitted favoring the plan.
Confirms Convention Stand
Endorsement of the Third Internal
tionale came through It's adoption by
the convention, but it was deemed best
to ask the party membership whether
such indoors ement should be with the
understanding that the party in this
country would be allowed to work out
its own policies and methods, without
regard to methods and policies used in
other countries.
The committee received telegram
from Eugene V. Debs, its candidate for

penitentiary, in which he declared he

the certainty of our victory than l have
ever been before"
Arrangements were made by the COM
mlttee to carry the campaign into all
states of the Middle West, where. it
was said, the Socialist organization is
not as strong as formerly. Plans also
were made to help Socialist candidates

Little State a Vital Factor
Although it has only five electoral
votes, the little state is vital to the
Democratic plans. There has been a
tremendous lot of calculating and add

cratic leaders, and they have found
II surprisingly hard TO make any list
Of states totalling 266 electoralvotes
or more-266 being the necessary num-
Der to elect-unless Rhode Island was
included in the Democratic column.
Some calculations which the Demo-
cratic leaders have made, it is learned,
require Rhode Island, even if New
York and New Jersey should go for
Cox.
This calculation, the man making the
even money bets on New Jersey and
Rhode Island said, is made by adding
tn, votes Of the so-called solid South
eleven states with 126 electoral

states OF Maryland. Kentucky. Missouri

Claim of Cox to
Labor's Gratitude
Iowa Senator Cites Records
TO Show That Republicans
and Not Democrats Passed
Laws TO Benefit Workers
specia, Dispatch to The Tribune


CHICAGO, Aug. Ex-senator Ken
yon, Of Iowa, chairman of the Senate
Committee on Education and Labor, to-
day took sharp exception to the state
ments of Governor Cox and other lead
ing Democrats concerning the Repub-
llcan record with regard to labor. He
said:
Governor Cox and other Democrats
are making very loud boasts over what
they have done for labor 1t may not
be amlss to call attention to the fact
that when the minimum wage bill,
known as the Johnson-N olan bill, to
give living wage to government en-
ployees, was before the Senate in the
closing days of the session, it was de-
feated by Democratic flibuster, led
by Senator, Underwood, leader of the
minority, ably assisted by other Demo-
cratic Senators, some of whom are now
prominent in the management of the
Democratic campaign. This bill af-
fected $4,000 underpaid government
employees.
Let me call attention to the fact
that Senator Robinson, in his speech
notifying Governor Cox, claimed for
the Democrats the credit for the bill
establishing permanent bureau for
women in the Department of Labor.
This is certainly assumption. The bill
establishing this bureau was introduced
in the House by Representative Camp
bell, Republican from Kansas, and in
the Senate by myself.
"There was, it is true, no objection to
the bill, but it was a Republican meas
ure passed by both parties.
The bill for vocational training for
men hurt in industry was passed by
the Republican Congress. The only
Democratic help was from Senator
Hoke Smith, who ably and pers silently
fought for it, but if there was any other
Democratic help The Congressional
Record will not disclose it. The chief
opposition came from a Democratic

Letter Says Torso Found

Anonymous Writer Declares
Woman Died on Coal Barge
and Had No One 10 Bury Her

The Jersey City police received an
anonymous letter yesterday, the writer
of which expressed surprise at excite
ment 'occasioned by the discovery of
the torso of woman off Jersey City
last week and offered an identification
Of the body. The letter follows:
why are you making such time
about that body found in the river at
Jersey City? The woman was living
with man on one of the P & R. coal
barges. She died early in this month
"She did not have doctor or any
body to bury her. She was Canadian

man of little education. Acting Chief
