Of the caucus - the move Of o small

receive neither support nor recognition
from the party as a whole. and Will OF

lists"
On the other hand. the prime movers in
bringing about the meeting. and those
whose voices carried weight during the
session aver the result of the meeting IS
the first step toward breaking away frora
the cid fusion party OF the last campaign.
They have no fesitancy in saying they are
bitterly disappointed at the outcome OF
the fusion movement; that they have been
made CATS paws Of ia placing men In Of
fee who have since ignored the party that
made their election possible. and that
henceforth they will tread strictly in the
center of the driveway or not walk at al.
The fact that the chief executive of the
state and the administration generally
were not invited 10 participate In the
council Of the faithful is pointed to as
showing the weakness OF the proposed
movement by all interested. excepting
those actually 1T work in the break-away.
