! justment of the affairs of the Socialist
Party of America to the lack, for the
first time in it's history, of a national
ticket. occupied the concluding sessions
here today of the party's 1924 conven-
ton. This condition resulted from
concurring last night with the confer
ence for progressive political action
in indorsing Senator Robert NJ. La Fol-
lette as a presidential candidate on his
own platform.
1t was indicated, however, that while
this action precluded nominations by
the Socialist party, it did not prevent
it from adopting a platform just as
the conference for progressive polti-
cal action voted itself structure of
economic planks after indorsing La
Follette's stand on the wisconsin
pronouncement' Whether the Social
lists would take this action was to be
decided today by the resolutions COM

A statement of principles was sub
mitted by that committee yesterday,

in it, either, to arouse discussion in
the convention, as it proved to be a
restatement, in more concise form, of

committee of seven members and as
many alternates was also on the pro-
gram.
The action on the La Toilette candi-
dacy was almost a foregone conclu-
sion. but was not taken unit, every
delegate who wished had been given
opportunity to express as much of his
views as he could crowd into Ave min
utes All except two of a committee
of nfteen recommended the action,
pointing out that the party had, in ac-
cordance with its traditions, assisted
in organizing the conference which
met here last week. The report
added:

organized workers of this country

Hope to Remove Prejudices. .
Advocates of the plan make no Sc
cret of their hopes that this chance
would result in breaking down the
prejudices against socialism which
nave been rife in some union la Dor
circles"
Several opponents of the plan
feared that the party would be swal-
lowed up in the campaign process. but
they were assured that the party
could not die SO long as its members
held to it's principles. Rev James 1.
Smiley, delegate from Maryland, said
on this:
When Jonah emerged from the
belly Of the whale, neither he nor the
great fish was any the worse for the
experience. In fact. it did Jonah
good, for he returned to the work to
which God had assign ed him."
The final record on the Endorsement
found all except a few absentees and
last ditchers'' in favor of it, The
first count was 106 to II. The af-
firmative was raised within a few
minutes to lis. and in the final rush
for the bandwagon less than half a
dozen delegates were left trudging
