Dalbert Hamilton, the Chicago lawyer, sa1d hie boliovea it to be the duty of the so- cialists to join trades unions if for no other reason than the opportunity such connection would give for agitation. Ho wanted the socialist labor party to hold out both lauds to the trades unions. Reforms must come through political action and cvory menus should be utilized for strength- ening the reform party. After a long discussion the resolutions wore finally adonted : Whereas, Through misreoresentations trade unionists have been lod to believe that tho sacialists are antagonistic to their organ~ izations and are opposed to all cfforts to roduce the hours of labor or to _prevent the turther degradation of the workers through reduction of wages, and imposition by em- ployers of conditions that tend to deprive the workers of what little indopendence that still remains in them; therefore. Resolved, That the socialist labor party of the United States recognize the trades union ns a natural effort of the workers to resist the encroachments of the employing class upon their means of existence, and whilo we, as socialists, cannot cndorse wil the methods ' empioyed by the trades unionists to accomplish their purposes, wo have the kindest fecling and aympathy for their cbjccts and we pledgo our support to_their every effort that can clmim our conscientious approval, and wo be- lieve it is tho duty of all wage workers to be members of trade unions or labor organiza- tions for tuese purpose: L. Of securing the lughest possible wages under the present conditions. 2. Of aiding the best possible plans and working for the reduction of the hours of labor and other necessary and practicabio 1mprov s in the present conditions of employment. 8. Ot aiding in the educational work that should form the most important func- tion of the trades union movement for the reason that accurate knowledge of cconomic conditions and laws tend to the formation of correct ideas that must result in successful action. A clause was subsequently added inviting the trades unionists to act in politics with the socialist labor party No referouce was ‘made to-day factional fight which developed York, resulting in_the expulsion of four members of the national exccutive commit- tee and their ejection from the headquarters of the party. ‘Theso fouraro W.
