forceful appeal for the delegates to
assert their manhood and womanhood
Johnson raised the point that the
Workers Party is not dual union, that
some of the most active and efficient
workers in the trade union movement
are Communists.
Jack Brados, party member and
sitting as delegate for the first time
tonight, defended the right Of Com

movement.
In opening, Comrade Bradon ques
toned: II would like to ask Brother
Smith If there is a rule anywhere in
the A. f. Of L. regulations which state
that members Of the republican, dem
ocratic, farmer-labor party, the Khan
IL. w. W., the socialist labor party OF
Workers Party cannot be officers in
