THE MEMBERSHIP meeting Of Lo-
l cal Chicago, Workers Party, We'd
nesday evening, August 81, at the
Workers Lyceum, 273S Hirsch Blvd,
will give the membership of Chicago
an opportunity to listen to the prog
ress that the Workers Party is max
ing in the elections campaign on ma
tional scale. Joseph Manley, national
campaign manager, will tell us what
is going on in the rest of the Party.
How the workers are gradually begin
ming to see that LaFollette is an il
fusion and a fraud and is an inveter-
ate enemy of the working class. The
Roadway that bill" Foster and Ben
Gitlow are making with their Com
munist message to the workers all
over the country will be outlined.
Petitions Being Circulated.
All over the United States, the
Workers Party is working hard to
place the Workers Party presidential
candidates and also state and congress
sional tickets on the ballot. There is
no doubt that in the various states
the Communist forces will succeed in
doing that. In Illinois and Chicago
we are carrying on the same task and
we feel certain of success here also
We have a good start, signatures are
being obtained by the hundreds. Our
aim is to put every candidate nomi-
mated for state and congressional dis
tricts on the ballot in addition to the
presidential candidates.
The membership meeting Wednes
day among other things will review
the activities of local Chicago in get
ting signatures on the petitions and
in spreading our propaganda thru sys-
tematic distribution Of the DAILY
WORKER, Election Platform of the
Party and other literature.
The Congressional District Cam
paign Managers will make their re-
ports and their experiences will serve
to help all the comrades in furthering
the work.
Spread Much Literature.
The elections campaign Of the
Workers Party is not a vote catching
proposition. That is a very secondary
matter Our use of the elections cam
paign is to spread our propaganda to
aid in building the circulation Of the

MASSACHUSETTS
SOCIALISTS BACK
DONKEY SENATOR
State Convention Won't
Nominate Against Walsh
Especial to The Daily Worker,


BOSTON, Mass, Aug. 24.-By re-
fusing to nominate a socialist" for
senator, the state convention of the
socialist party, consisting Of IS
dispirited delegates, virtually endors-
ed the candidacy of David /. Walsh,
democrat.
In the words Of Weisbord, S. P. or
ganizer, IF we socialists can't vote
for Walsh, we hope our sympathizers
will"
1t was intended to put this over
without discussion, the slate for the
state ticket presented to the conven-
ton not having any senatorial can
didate. But an immature delegate from
the Y. P. S. L. spilled the beans.
Morrill,, of Haverhill, who presided,
spoke of his association with Walsh
in the state legislature, of his liberal
views, how Walsh was even in favor
of proportional representation!
Louis Marcus, the only voice raised
in opposition, said most of the speak
ers claiming to be active in the in
terests of organized labor, have no
connection with labor and never car
ried a union card; as a matter of fact,
labor does not care what we do here
today, we have no influence on them
one way or the other" He was of
the opinion that Hillquit had night
mare to go into such a thing, said
Walsh was trimmer, worse than
Lodge and Gillette and that no con-
vention could make him vote for a
democrat.
Intended to Keep Mum.
Arkin Boston agent for the yellow
Forward), said it was never intended
to have this come up but for this dele
gate, pointing to the Y. P. S. l.. rep
resentative. If Weisbord would with
draw his objection the convention
could proceed. 1t was then discovered
that Weisbord had no vote and as
there was no other objector-Marcus
being silenced-the slate went thru
with no senatorial candidate.
The convention was a dismal failure.
No amount of discussion could revive
The corpse. The undertakers, Bearak
and Roewer, didn't give this thing a
lecent burial. The 35 delegates from
he Is odd branches had no life, no
enthusiasm, no interest-there was
the usual confusion.
Arkin wanted the analysis Of society
n the program to include another
lass-the poor farmers who do not
work for anyone" Weisbord pointed
out that much was left out of the
,rogram-there was no mention of
var and imperialism for instance"
Better Not to Mention Socialism"
One Of the women delegates rose to
'emark: eve should not mention so
cialism; talk about it like Claessens
ioes-the Trinity, rent, interest and
profit, and talk about women-women
are idealists. l do in my letters and
have sent them to the New Leader,
and the say they are good"
After four hours of this sort of
thing the convention adjourned and
the younger delegates in attendance
went over to Boston Common to hear
the Communist speakers for the
Workers Party at the regular Sunday
afternoon meeting.
