Anti Imperialist Convention Planned for August in the West
A meeting of the American Anti-Imperialist League executive committee in New York decided to call a national convention of anti imperialists in a mid western city around August 1. Invitations will go to prominent anti imperialists and allied organizations to form a unified campaign stance for the upcoming political contest. The convention may name a presidential candidate or support Bryan, though no decision is final.
