This lead shows that the expulsion of the Socialist Assemblymen will be demanded on the ground that, as Socialists, they cannot take an oath to support a Constitution which obli- gates the Legislature to make appropriations for the maintenance of the State milit All that remains to be done in this connection is to establish, by the evidence of records of the organization, that the five Socialist Ass blymen are dues-paying members of the Socialist Party. m~ Representatives of the Judicia o Sumer ana vt he darenah Gh MER GG) GOULDIIR: that evidence in the varty | NOW THE MOTHER records in Manhattan.
