WISCONSIN TO
START FARMER-
LABOR PARTY
Will Send Delegates To
St. Paul

MADISON, Wis, May 22.--Almost
unanimous support was given to the
movement for the formation Of state
Farmer-Labor Party and for the send
ing of delegates to the national con-
vention in st. Paul June II at the
state conference for progressive po-
litical action held here Sunday. The
resolution adopted is being sent out
to labor and farmers organizations
turnout the state:
Socialists Want Detective"
Socialist delegates and other con-
servatives attempted to put thru a
motion to send an observer" only to
st. Paul F. H. Shoemaker Of Green
Bay replied in stirring speech, rid
iculing the fears Of the Socialists. He
called upon the delegates to support
the efforts of the farmers and work
ers to build a real party Of their own
class and send bona fide representa-
tive to st. Paul, not merely 'detec-
tive"
The railway brotherhoods withdrew
from the Madison state conference
with the clumsy excuse that not all of
the railroad organizations had been
notified.
Students Fight for Russia.
Wisconsin University students led a
splendid fight for the recognition of
Soviet Russia, but the reactionaries of
the conference defeated the resolution
on the flimsy pretext that this meet
ing had nothing to do with interna-
tional politics.
John Works, of the Milwaukee
Leader" Socialist paper, was the
chief proponent of the motion to send
a disruptor to the st. Paul convention.
G. S. Shklar, sub-district organizer
of the Workers Party, answered
Works and called upon the delegates
to repudiate the Socialist tactics.
Shklar urged the conference to send
to st. Paul delegates who are sim
cere in their desire to build united
front of workers and farmers and
who actually want to build party
of workers and farmers on national
SCALE"
Resolutions Passed.
The. resolves of the resolution for
the formation of state and national
Farmer-Labor Parties are as follows:
Resolved, that this conference now
in session this May IS, 1924. at Madi-
son, Wis, go on record calling upon
all branches of the labor movement
economic, political, cooperative and
fraternal, within the state of Wiscon-
sin, to unite their forces for indepen-
dent political action thru the forma-
ton of state Farmer-Labor Party,
and be it further
Resolved, that we go on record to
give the utmost possible support to
the movement for the National Farm
er-Labor Convention at st. Paul,
Mimi, June II, and that we select one
delegate to represent the groups be-
ing represented here at this confer
ence."

STRONGEST CASE
Is AGAINST NEAL.
We can prove that Fasick. Mrs.
FaHick. Neal and Mrs. Neal were
az tho scene Of the holdup when II
was committed. Neal was later
seen 20 get out OF tho bandit car
on Western ave. after the holdup
and pull tho license plate from Il.
Two policemen trailed the bandit

OF u up 20 that point.
when the bandits Jaw the off.
Gers they dartcd away. leaving
Neal alone in tho street where he
was captured. He had a gun. a
lot OF cartridges and the license
plate. The strongest case Is against
him.
Then VIC have witnesses who saw
tho Neal automobile az the scene
OF the holdup at tho Bon Mnrche.
We can prove that Mrs. Neal was
driving the car. apparently with ths
purpose OF meeting the bandits and
taking the money In her car. She
ran into truck near Eighth ave.

car was found wrecked.

The police plainly were hoping 10

In tho case that no confession
