SOCIALISTS REJECT THE
PROLETARIAT PROPOSAL

The Red Flag OF International
rsts" of the socialist party of Am
erica went down to their first real
defeat in the partys national con-
vention in New York Tuesday.
By the decisive vote of l03 to 50
the convention crushed a radical"
declaration of principles, submitted
by the delegation from Illinois,
which provided for the dictator
ship of the proletariat" and limita-
tion of citizenship throughout the
United States.
Bitterness of invective marked the
day long debate between the "con-
servative" forces OF Morris Hillquit
of New York and the radicals led by
]. Louis Engdahl of Chicago.
"You are afraid of the Dictator
ship of the proletariat," shouted
Engdahl in closing the debate on the
Illinois measure. "Yet you have the
dictatorship OF Palmer, Wilson and
Burleson You can't fool anybody by
phrases, nor can you fool anybody
with the decorations of this con-
vention hall, the American flag, the
flag of Wall street and the Dictator
ship of Wilson
There is only one road to victory.
There is only one flag, the Red flag
of international socialism. We can
do nothing better than ally oursel-
yes with our comrades in Russia,
Italy and everywhere else where
they believe in international social
ism.
Il see only one kind of socialism,
international, world socialism. We
cannot compete as phrase mongers
with the labor party, the non-parti-
san league, the committee of AZ or
any of the old parties. But we can
compete with all in the phrases OF
revolutionary socialism"
James O'Neal of Brooklyn. arpu-
ing for the victorious Hillquit CON
servative" platform, bitterly arraing-
ed the word dictatorship"
"Are we scientific socialists! Or
are we dogrnatists?" asked O'Neal.
THE time and conditions which fav-
ored the Russian Revolution must
be studied before we attempt 10
adopt them here.
IL don't like the word dictatorship
Let it go throughout the country
that you favor a dictatorship of the
proietariat and you cease TO be
political party. Introduce such a res
olution and you cease to be pollti-
cal party. Introduce such a resolu-
ton and you must do your work un-
derground or be driven under by
Sweet at Albany and the politicians
at Washington who exercise such
a dictatorship. but that would not
excuse us.
Bourgeois democracy with all its
shams and illusions permits in nor
NAL times decision by an honest and
fair discussion. To espouse the die
tatorship program would turn every
such democracy into an absolute
monarchy"

one bid was received and that was

means a loss of $3.50 to the taxpay-

Rationing of sugar to manufactur-
ers of non-essentials and an agree
ment between the United States
and foreign countries not to bid

today by Herbert Hoover as
means of relieving the present sugar
situation, at Washington today.
Mr.. Hoover said the government
was primarily responsible for the pre-
sent situation through the failure
to purchase the Cuban crop.
Last September the administra-
tion could have bought the Cuban
crop at six and one half cents per
pound, for raw sugar This would
have given IL cent sugar to our con-
sumers. AS the result of the failure
to act we are subject to unparallel-
ed speculation and profiteering. The
increase in price is imposing an add
tional tax on our people OF about
$50 per family per annum.
This situation cannot be remed-
led by the attorney generals concep-
ton that forces of this character can
be handled by Dutting a few people
ia jail. Something could be done TO
matters il our government
even now entered into negotiations
with the large European govern
nents to stop bidding against each
other and secure our fair share OF
he available supplies.
