that they had come to Richmond as
the travelling companions OF Berg and
Randcll.

ADVISES BROOKLYN MOOSE
State Chairman Urges Them to
Agree on Reforms.

Theodore Douglas Robinson, state chair
man OF the Progressive party addressed
the COUNT committeeman OF Kings Coun-
~ AT a meeting in the Johnston Building,
Evans street near Flatbush. last night.
He refused to say anything definite about
municipal fusion, but urged his hearers
TO agree on a platform pledging the party
to specific reforms; such a platform, he
said. would enable the voters TO demand
definite acts from their officials after cleo
ton and definite statements of attitude
concerning these reforms from their can
dldateS before election.
Unless the men We choose are Wiling
TO stand on our platform We won't have
them" said Mr.. Robinson. I'm New York
County We have formed a large commit
tee for educational and publicity work;
this committee is made up of a number
OF subcommittee. each OF which looks
into some matter of municipal importance
for the purpose OF recommending planks
for our platform. You in Kings County
should do likewise.
Mr. Robinson paid tribute TO the
power of the metropolitan press. saying
that though it was unprogressive, the
Progressive party had nevertheless been
enabled by its aid TO obtain a publicity
which otherwise would have been impOs-
sible
