ROOSEVELT ON THE NEW PARTY

In a review Of the first year of the
existence of the Progressive party, for
the October Century, Col Roosevelt
refers to the absence of real distinc-
tions between the old parties and the
rise of new issues as being the cause
of the new party's birth. Most of the
vital issues Of the day have become
such within the lifetime of the present
generation. due to profound social and
economic changes of the last half cen
fury. The Progressives pointed the
way toward the social goal in which
there is an enormous increase In col
lective action not as substitute for
but as an addition to similar increase
in the sphere of individual initiative
and activity
He refers to Taft's recent Yale lee
lures for the course of such theoret-
ical Justification for the course of such
men as Penrose and Smoot He charg-
es that the destinies of the Republican
party today are given over to a com
mittee OF irresponsible and obscure
politicians From the Democratic
party he says the Progressives are d.
vided both because Of the indifference
of that party and because the doctrines
of it are false or set forth SO vaguely
as not to be understood. Their only
performance so far Is the passage of
the tariff bill and that is merely a red
herring across the trail of real econ.
omic issues. So far there had been
no evidence that the Democratic tar.
if would decrease the cost OF living.
He finds in President Wilson's "New
Freedom" book not one affirmative
suggestion as TO how TO deal with the
trusts. He cites the Progressive
planks dealing with social and indus
trial justice as being concrete and de
finite and reasoned purposes of a great
political party for the first time In
