The '''Socialist Party of America''' began in 1904 with the merger of the Social Democratic Party and the Social Labor Party. The party contained both moderate and radical socialists. At its peak in 1912, it claimed 118,000 members. [[Image:1904SO.JPG|thumb|350px|1904 election poster]]. Unlike Europe, where socialist parties were controlled by labor unions, most American labor unions opposed the party because of its radicalism and hostility to religion. The party was weak after 1932 and finally split apart in the early 1970s.
