In present­ ing and advocating such measures ihe Socialist members of the state legislatures and of local administra- t ions must bear in mind the fact that they are fighting on a parlia­ mentary basis the class struggle which brought into existance the Socialist movement and the Social­ ist party.

Socialists in state legislatures and local administra­ t i f s may well be guided by the ad­ vice of the permanent Committee o il State and Municipal Program provided by the national constitu­ tion of the Socialist party.
