the hands of the socialistic labor party and that it is possible in some instances such organizations may have had the countenance or encouragement of local sections inasmuch as no warrant for such organizations can bo be found in the platform or constitution of the party the proceedings of either party df congress and the acts of the committee or board of supervision said organizations are regarded by the executive committee as occupying a position of hostility to the tho principles and policy of the socialistic labor part party whether as intended or not we therefore request all party members to with withdraw drair from such military connections and urge all sections to avol avoid dany dnny any official connection with such bodies and that no arms be carried in the groces
