Chicago, Illinois – Socialist Party of America Stands with Labor
In this month’s edition of the International Socialist Review, Charles H. Kerr gives a day-by-day account of the national convention of the Socialist Party of America, held in Chicago from May 10th until May 17th. The convention took a strong stand with organized labor, as a whole, while, sadly, side-stepping the issue of Industrial Unionism.
The article by Comrade Kerr was eighteen pages long, from which we offer excerpts below.
From the International Socialist Review of June 1908:
