PREDICTS PARTY REALIGNMENT
Foss Says Republican Leaders in Sen
ate Have Sounded Their Death Knel.

Holyoke, Mass, March GA realignment
of political parties in this country was pre-
dicted by Governor Eugene n. Foss in an
address before the Holyoke Board of Trade
this evening. This. he declared. would
come as a result OF the failure Of the SEN
ate to pass the Mccall reciprocity bill. He
said.
The action Of the Republican Senate in
rejecting this opportunity TO carry out the
principles of its party platform, the re-
quest of its President and wishes of the
people; its support of Lorimer and its op-
position 10 other progressive measures OF
legislation but emphasizes the necessity OF
securing legislation that will make the Sen
ators more responsible TO public sentiment
by their election by the direct vote of the
people. The Republican leaders by their
action have sounded their own death knell.
1t means, in my judgment "A reahgnment
of parties This is in fact already going
on 1t is taking place nov. The only thing
that the progressive VIM Of the Repubh
ca party can do is 10 jon hands with the
progressive wing OF the Democratic party
and secure legislation that will be in the
interests of all the people and not Of spe-
cial privilege.
The Governor declared that the United
States has much to gain and nothing to
lose" from reciprocity with Canada.
