WORKERS. AND FARMERS CAUCUS
NPLANNING CONVENTION WORK

ST. PAUL, Mimi, June 18.-Cau-
cuses are today an accepted part of
the Farmer-Labor movement as a re-
suit Of the gatherings since adjourn
ment yesterday of the delegations of
the 30 states with representation
here. They not only selected their
representatives on the various con-
vention committees, but talked over
the big issues of the young movement
in which they are playing a part.
While some of the delegations con-
fined themselves to the selection of
their committeeman, others spent a
good part of the night deciding their
stand toward the LaFollette candi-
dacy, the form Of organization the
new party is to take, and the platform
that is to be adopted.
Hathaway Beats Starkey.
The more than 100 delegates of the
Minnesota delegation constituted a
small convention in themselves. Ev-
cry effort of its most reactionary
wing to plant the seeds of disruption
was successfully fought. The com.
mitteemen selected were William Ma
honey, organization; c. A. Hathaway,
platform; Louis Engstrom, candi-
dates. Hathaway, member of the
Workers party, defeated the reaction
airy Frank Starkey. delegate of the

Spirit Of Youth Right.
She pointed out that the leaders of
modern revolutions have been between
thirty-two and forty-six years Of age.
THE spirit of youth is divinely
courageous. The spirit of youth is apt
to be right. l believe the spirit of
youth is here"
Woman Rings Unity Call.
Assistant secretary Jessie Bullock
Kastner, Washington, urged the dele
gates to get together on the things
they could agree on, and then differ
outside on everything else from evo-
luton to bobbed hair.
THE platform decided on. she said,
"let us then proceed to the selection
of national candidates who will stand
on that platform" AS she sat down,
Miss Kastner was given cheers, like
Miss DAILY before her.
Release Labor Prisoners.
This was followed by the announce
ment by delegate Ryan, Washington,
that Miss Kastner, as a member of the
Washington Legislature had intro
duced resolution in that body de-
handing the release Of all class war
prisoners. An additional report of the
credentials committee showed 522 del
egates seated.

ISt. Paul Trades and Labor assembly,
two to one.
Starkey sought to have the Mime
sofa delegation adjourn from the Au-
ditorium to the Labor temple for fur
Their caucus. This was fought on the
ground that many of the farmer dele
gates had gone OFF to other meetings,
and it was pointed out that the hold
ing of this rump gathering would not
be fair to them. Starkey then called
on the conservative delegates to 60
with him to the Labor temple, and a
few Of his boon companions went off
with him.
Reaetionaries Aided C. o. p.
1t is charged that the little Starkey
group of business agents was active
on the Republicans side in the recent
state primaries, that they really have
no place in the Farmer-Labor move
ment. In the small Starkey group are
such men as Frank Fisher of the
Building Trades council. ]. ]. Mccoy
of the electrical workers, and few
others
1t was this element that managed
to get a snap vote in the st. Paul
Trades and Labor assembly, sending
Starkey as its delegate, with the in
struction carrying the joker that if
the Communists were in control he
should withdraw. If he bolts the con-
vention, the Minnesota delegates say
he will bolt it alone.
California Shelves Anti-Red.
In the California caucus the Pacific
coast delegation completely isolated,

icerned. another turbulent factor in
the person of Walter Thomas Mills.

guments and forgets all about the

put J. II. Ryckman on the platform
committee; D. A. German, committee
on candidates; Anita Whitney, organ
ization committee.
The Washington delegation made
these selections: ]. H. Ryan, Tacoma,
platform; John c. Kennedy, organiza-
ton, and Samuel Mason. candidates.
