olated a provision of the electio.
code, Edwin Kohn, committe
chairman, has announced.

whole clique at the meeting on
Oct. 25, 1953,” as' one of nine vi
olations for which Article XI pro
vides penalties of ho more than.
100 or less than ten votes.
The elections code was not read
to the State Party clique Oct. 25.

cause he believed a member of
the elections committee would
read the code, as in previous
years. White said no member of
the committee was prfesent at the
Oct. 25 meeting.
The clique chairman added that
he asked an elections committee
member at the clique meeting
Sunday if the code - should be
read,- and was told “not to both
er.”
Ernest Famous, the committee
member to whom White referred,
said he had been under the im
pression the code had been read
previously when he answered
White,
White said the matter was a
misunderstanding, and that an in
tentional violation had not been
committed. The code was read to
All-College and class clique offi
cers of the party and to the chair
men of the party committees, he
said.
The elections committee will
consider the matter, along with
complaints made by clique chair
men or committee members after

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1953
Off
to Address
CofSoquy
By BETTY KOSTER
Long before Sen: McCarthy even
dreamed of waging war against
communism and at a period when
important government leaders
were praising Stalin, Thomas con
tinually attempted to Warn Amer
icans against the dangers of this
“new religion of the mass and the.
machine.”
He believes that Russian com
munism “has been a . socialist be
trayal. It has substituted for the
socialist commonwealth the most
absolute state in history.”
Thomas has lived to see many
of his social reforms adopted eveh
though his party has failed to
achieve general popularity. He
feels this has been caused to some
extent by immigration limitations,
the electoral system of giving the
bloc of a state’s votes to one party
and discrepancies in state consti
tutions which allow. many states
to completely omit minor parties
from the ballot.
- He has constantly opposed war
saying ' that. “the only hope of
social salvation is learning to co
operate.” Feeling that the United
States has the material basis for
an abundant life, Thomas has
been very concerned about need
less waste of food and the dwind
ling supply of natural resources.
•Although his belief in “public
ownership and management for
the common good of the names of
production and distribution” has
been widely criticized, seldom has
anyone questioned the integrity
of this friendly critic of American
politics, who has continually
strived for a socialistic but also
democratic America-.
