Pre mier Macdonald's speech Saturday has stirred the extremist elements of the independent labor party, which opened its annual conference here yesterday and it is likely that the premier, who was formerly the party’s chairman, will meet with some severe heckling when he faces téday’s session. In his address Sat- urday he advocated taking the rep- aration experts’ report as a whole and putting it into operation at once. Mr. Macdonald did not attend yes- terday'’s meeting at which his atti- tude regarding reparations was sub- jected to uuch adverse criticism, and the need for “gingering up” the la- bor government was generally em- phasized. An antl-reparationist vote was only defeated by a narrow majority. “Increasingly bold use of power for socialist measures and adminis- tration” was urged by the chairman, Clifford Allen, who demanded “‘ap- plication of socialistic principles to the reorganization of the nation’s industries and economic life.” ‘The party executive adopted a mo- tion in favor of one unified socialist international, to include Moscow.
