Harrington Thru In Illinois
The Illinois delegation voted al
most solidly against Lewis. It
cast 800 votes against the ap-
pointive power and only SO for It.
Harrington, Fishwich and Nesbit,
president, vice president and sec
rotary respectively, were the only
members of the Illinois delegation
to vote with the machine.

Mooney and Sweeney Of West Vir-
GINA, all were allies of the Teac-
tionaries.
The Nova Scotia delegation cast
their entire SO votes against Lewis.

have been making war on the pro-

here would not be surprised if
Lewis should utilize the Shenan-

Lenin had given tho revolutionary
workers new estimate of the neces-
sity for organization and discipline
in the revolutionary movement.
Arouses Great Enthusiasm.
He aroused great applause when
he said that all those who believed
in what Lenin believed, the suprem-
acy of the workers and farmers, the
need for the overthrow of CAPT
talism, are untrue to the working
class, to themselves and to their con-
victions if they remain outside of
the Communist movement which, in
the United States, he said, is the
Workers Party of America.
C. E. Ruthenberg outlined the de-
velopment of the revolutionary move
ment from theory to action under the
inspiration of Nicolai Lenin and the
Communist International. He told of
the struggles of the workers for free
dom, exploitation and oppression, but
only with the advent of the Russian
revolution, he said, under the lead
ership Of the Communist Party, led
in turn by Nicolai Lenin, did the
workers come to realize that their
first step towards freedom was the
conquest of power thru the organ
ization of soviets and the establish
ment of the dictatorship of the work
ing class as a prelude to the Com
munist order.
Both Ruthenberg and Foster were
given tremendous ovations when they
rose to speak and at the conclusion
of their speeches. The meeting closed
with the singing of the Interna-
tionale.

establish a dictatorship in such a
Labor Party.
Raymond S. Hoefses. editor Of the
Labor Advocate, a Socialist weekly
in Reading, president of the Fed
Grated Trade Council and organizer
of the Socialist Party, followed Mr..
Stump. He opened up his speech
by declaring that he wholeheartedly
Endorsed every statement in the
speech delivered by Gitlow, but de-
clared that the Socialist Party has
demonstrated in the past that it is
Labor Party. And he asserted
there was no necessity in Reading
to create confusion by organizing an
other Labor Party.
Says Time Is Ripe.
In answer Harold r. John, rep
resentative of the Workers Party,
stated that the Workers Party was
in favor of organizing a Labor
Party in Reading Immediately. He
said that the time was ripe to make
such step. He said that the Work
ers Party had no intentions to put
anything over on the conference, and
that the Workers Party was repre-
scented at the conference by only two
delegates.
Sands again took the floor and
ridiculed the idea that the Workers
Party was in a position to capture
the conference. He showed clearly
that the conference was composed
of a majority of Socialist Party
delegates and that the provisional
committee that called the conference
invited all organizations in the city
of Reading, including those that
were known to be decidedly organi-
cations of the Socialist Party. Since
the Workers Party had only two
delegates, how could one expect them
to put something over on the Social
list Party when the Socialist Party
was in a position to take full charge
of the conference. He charged Mr..
fS track the the iss6gs SraR fs sGB5r to Aidsss5
by injecting foreign issues into the
conference.
An old Socialist, representative Of
the Thomas Paine Memorial Foun-
dation, spoke in favor of the Labor
Party and wanted the conference to
do something in that respect.
Moulders' Delegate a Progressive.
M. C. Kaiser, representative of
the Moulders' Union, pointed out
that the Moulders' International, at
its last convention, went on record
in favor Of the Labor Party and
that he was prepared to take steps
to organize a Labor Party out of the
conference. Robert Weaver, the
other delegate of the Workers Party,
spoke for the organization of a La
Dor Party. H. H. Bellman, a vet
eran in the Socialist movement Of
Reading, spoke also of the necessity
of organizing the Labor Party.
The conference adjourned to re-
convene at a later date to consider
the question. However, the Labor
Party idea has taken root in the
minds of many Of the delegates pres
ent. The leadership and influence
over the unions that the Socialist
Party has enjoyed in Reading for
the last twenty years is now threat
ened by their vacillating tactics.
Unless the Socialist Party in Read
ing will willingly go along with
the Labor Party movement It's in
fuence will be destroyed.
