The Philadelphia Ledger says:
"Rumor yesterday had it that those
Democrats who are opposed to the
Palmer-M c O m C k
leadership in the party
New Party would have an oppor-
According tunity for revenge in
to Rumor the November election
by means of new
party. 1t was said that
to this end title to a new party would
be pre- -empted at the office of the Sec
retary of the Commonwealth. Accord
ing to reports current, the new party
would name as its candidates for
United States Senator and Governor
Senator Penrose and DIR. Martin G.
Brumbaugh. Then the rest of the
ticket would be devoted to Democratic
candidates for Congress and the State
Legislature. In this way, it was said,
"Old Guard Democrats not in SYM
pathy with Representative A. Mitchell
Palmer for United States Senator and
Vance C. Mccormick for Governor and
local option could please themselves
and at the same time look after those
o.
sired to see succeed.
Senator Penrose yesterday discounted
the alleged differences between himself
and DIR. Brumbaugh as "all rot y
"Ihere has been mid
summer furry in this at
tempt to make it appear Penrose
that there is not harmony Denounces
m o n the Republican Hot Alf1sts
candidates." he said.
This talk about discord
is all rot and is not worth discussing
There is entire harmony among Re
publican candidates and the ticket will
be elected by big majority in No
vember."
What comment have you to make
on the report that DR.. Brumbaugh,
however, would stand on his own pri-
mary PLATFORM" he was asked.
THAT is entirely proper"
Suppose DR.. Brumbaugh refuses to
indorse the party platform if it differs
with his own ~
"That is a matter too trivial to dis
cuss. I am willing to discuss matters
OF importance, but / do not care to
waste my time in swatting house flies"
who will arrange Brumbaugh's
speaking dates?"
THAT will be taken care of in due
course-that and the platform is in
the hands of the State committee
Senator Penrose is in New York,
where he will consult with National
Chairman Hilles and other prominent
Republicans regarding
plans for the campaign
Campaign for the election of Re.
to Be Run publican congressman this
in State Fall to insure the repeal
of the Wilson Underwood
tariff bill.
When asked if he intended to invite
well-known Republicans from other
States to help in the Pennsylvania
campaign he said mo, we will run
the campaign ourselves"
The senator emphasized the impor.
tance to the business interests of the
country of Republican success in the
Fall congressional elections.
