1 platform brought numerous
i protests from the Minnesota fanners.
I P A. Peterson moved to strike out a
f dans advocating unemployment com-
rt potioa.
"We cant go. oqfr.nd ask our own
neighbor to vote for a party which
1 would support able-bodied men in ldle-
. t Msa" he sajd.
i. Ob tha vote 53 delegates mostly
1 Minnesota and South Dakota farm-
t are voted with Peterson. The oppo-
J sltim was five times that number. J.
B Lakkesmoe a school teacher from
.iiki Wing denounced the paltform in
5 a speech which ended in shouts of de-
i fiaioa from the communists.

' I "Xov want votes but you won't get
I half the American people to support
J yon in this la SO years. It is easier to
. f talk about natioiislisztion of Industry
t and land than to put it through. You
(are objecting to government by and
of and for the privileged class and
the want to establish a government
for another class. But the govern-
ment of tha United States is by and of
and for the whole neoule."
wtive committee of the Minnesota
fanner-labor party echoed Lakkes-
more's sentiments saying:
"This platform and the one adopted
lq eur rtata convention are as dif-
ferent as day is from night. I fear th
effect f t's convention upon our
campaign for re-election of Magnus
Johnson-"
Support for the nationalization and
Vnemployment cempenastion ideas
was voiced by C. E. Hntbawav Min-
neapolis: H. C. Penny South Dakota:
H. M. Meitxen. Tazas and Mai Ba-
daehtj New York. It was Bedacht's
frt talk in the convention.
The platform contained only three
changes from the document presented
Wednesday when it precipitated a
fight which remit! In its being re-
ferred back. Meitsen persuaded tha
committee to eliminate the original
plank which called for full economic
and . political equity for the negro.
Instead . the platform pledged the
party ts "eatesd its struggle to free"
all toilers to include the political and
economic emancipation of the negro
wvrr in larnier.
' - A Bother change was te insert a
: plank advocated by th national wem-
en's 'party and demanding "full po-
; litieal and acoaomie equality for men
and women." Alice Paul who hesded
th delegatioB of women who sought

j a cties sf the convention.'' She and
! her committee left st once for New
York ts besiege th national demo-
S .crartc convention.
i Tha third change in the platform
was issertioB of a plank favoring "en-
actment of a hjw providing employ-
' sneot far the unemployed on public
