SOCIALISTS ASK
CAPITALISTS TO
JOIN WITH THEM
Take Steps Of a Social
Fascist Third
Party
Agree to Change Name
Hillquit Wants Yellow
Labor Party in y. S.

Detailed steps for the formation of
an outright socialist third capitalist
party were taken at the New York
Socialist" party convention held yes
terday and today at the Rand School,
"If any new body should in the
future give promise of uniting the
workers and progressive citizens in
one effective political body, the So
cialist party will meet the situation
in friendly and generous spirit and
will be ready to join," is the basis
of the new policy of alliances against
the workers adopted at the New
York convention.
Arguments for the resolution were
advanced under the leadership of the
capitalist lawyer, Morris Hillquit.
Norman Thomas sponsored the
idea that the party should immedi-
ately elect a committee to make a
bridge with all the petty bourgeois
elements who formed the bulk of the
vote cast for Thomas in the last
mayoralty election. Also to take in
anybody else who will help get away
from the disreputable taint Of $50
cialism."
Every delegate without exception
favored the new alliances. HillquiI
wanted the socialist party to assume
the socialist-fascist, imperialistic
character of the British imperialist
labor party, Norman Thomas want
ed outright, open capitalist alliances,
with slight concession to the labor
party ldea-if the labor party is
willing to accept the tty-bourgeois
leadership of the socialist" party.
The vote was 81 for Hillquit's views
and 73 for those of Norman Thomas.
The convention was opened by the
yellow socialist, Louis Waldman, who
gloated over the capitalist press sup
port given to Norman Thomas in the
last election. "The dignity and
craftsmanship of our candidate -
said Weldman, sis admittedly above

Several members of the Young
Peoples Socialist League broke out
singing a garbled version of the
"Red Flag" very much to the an
noyance of the delegates and the
temporary chairman.
He requested them not to "repeat
that stuff.
In order to broaden its social-fas-
cist activities every barrier to mem
bership was let down by the con-
vention.

widest latitude of individual opinion
and action"

As a result of the rotten craft

to split the workers and thus aid
the bosses, five members of the Com
pressed Air Workers Union local
67 of New Jersey are being held for
Grand Jury in Hudson County, N.
j., charged with having cut hose
line carrying compressed air to
members of the New York local 2,
who were at work in a caisson un-
der water, in the construction of the
abutments at the Kearney end of the
State Highway Bridge Saturday.
Making use of the old weapon
of the A. F. of L., the jurisdiction
al dispute to split the workers, the
officials of both locals have played
the New York and New Jersey sand
hogs against each other, to the ad-
vantage of the Senior and Palmer
Co., which is constructing the abut-
ments on the highway bridge.
Following walkout of members
of local 81 last Thursday, frequent
clashes between the members of the
two locals resulted, egged on by the
union misleaders.
The officials of local 2 ordered
the members of that local to remain
at work while the members of the
Jersey local struck.

The Leaksville Mill, at Homestead

struck and completely shut down
since Nov. 8 at midnight. The 20C
workers of tha tmill belong to the

the strikers are mobilizing for mass

increased to $4,000. When the |. L.

money was refused, and the authori-
