FOR
NEW LEAGUE

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
NEW YORK, Jan, 25.-That Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt approves OF the
platform of the National Republican
Progressive League is shown by an
article by him in the current issue Of
the Outlook, of which he is contribut-
ing editor.
Colonel Roosevelt's name, however,
does not appear In the call sent out by
the new organization. In explanation,
his friends say that II he had partici-
pated in the movement II would have
been hailed at once as a third term
propaganda and much Of its useful
ness destroyed.
That the Colonel is in favor of the
things for which the organization
stands is proved conclusiyely by the
Outlook article which Is over his sig
nature. He discusses these sugges-
tions which are a part Of the platform
of the new organization:
Drastic laws TO prevent the corrupt
use of money In politics.
Election OF United States Senators
by direct vote
Direct primaries for the nomination
of elective officers.
Direct election of delegates TO the
national conventions, the voter to ex-
press his choice for President on the
ballot for delegate.
The introduction of the initiative
referendum and recall.
The latter is the one suggestion
which the Colonel handles In some
what. conservative fashion. Speaking
OF the recall he says:
las regards the recall, II sometimes
very useful, but II contains undoubted
possibilities OF mischief, and, OF
course. it is least necessary in the
case OF short term elective officers
There is. however, unquestionably a
very real argument to be made for It.
as regards officers elected or ap-
pointed for life" Colonel Roosevelt
admits that this latter class is the
judiciary and promises an article ON
this topic later. So far as the initiative
and referendum are concerned he
says:
where popular interest is sum
ciently keen, as II has been In the
case of certain amendments to the
National Constitution at various times
in the past. we see what is practically
the initiative unde- another name.
believe that It would be good thing
to have the principle of the initiative
and referendum applied in most al
our States, provided that Il be safe
guarded as to prevent its being usst
either wantonly or In a spirit D
levity."
