IOWA EXPECTS HELP THIS WEEK

DesMoines, Ia, May 23-(By Union
Associated Press)-A number of
young men are expected to leave
school on Friday, not waiting until the
end of the term, to work on the farms
and reduce the labor shortage which
is causing SO much anxiety in this
state. The young men were aroused
to action by, the announcement that
two hundred thousand acres of land
in Iowa. will lit fallow or be planted
to catch crops Of fodder unless relief
from the shortage Of farm labor was
secured. Given favorable weather
conditions, which for the corn crop
means hot July, a few good rains in
August and no frost in September,
Iowa will raise a record breaking crop
because of the unusual excellence of
the seed and the condition Of the soil
at planting.

THE RISE AND FALL OF PARTIES.


Students of American politics will find most
to interest them in the history of our political par
ties. Since the Civil War the two great historic
parties have monopolized the presidency between
them; but outside the two great parties there have
been movements of q political nature which pro-
foundly influenced American politics, and the la
test of which are even now influencing our legis-
lation.
These political movements, always radical in
their aims and nature, have come and gone like
waves, rising to a height which to the casual OBJ
server threatened to engulf existing political in
stitutions, and then subs;ding and passing away.
Among the first of these movements was the
Greenback craze which took hold of the country
about 1876, and resulted in the formation of a par
.ty which elected q dozen or more men to Con-
gress. The craze died down, and the party
ceased to exist-but it left its mark on legisla-
ton, and on the ideals of the older parties.
Toward the early COS, the Populist organization
came out of the west. For a decade there was a
scattering of Populists in Congress. The party
put up five presidential tickets. Not until the
more recent wave of progressivism did the Popu-
list agitation subside.
About twenty years after the Populist organi-
ZaClOn began 10 come lNCO>SXlSCence, Cnc fTORTeS-
sive movement had its birth. The "Iowa idea"
was a much mooted subject. Kansas, Nebraska,
Wisconsin, Oregon, Washington, California were
among the states in which it took a strong hold.
1t probably reached its heights in 1912; since then
it has been declining.
All these movements have elected men to Con-
gress, some of them have elected state admins
none of them have elected presidents
though they have on occasion profoundly influence
ed presidential candidates. Their fate has been
to achieve no political power, in the sense of pat
ronage, but much political influence. They have
colored the policies and legislation of the older
parties have Influenced their fortunes, and have
ultimately been absorbed into them.
Just now the country is swinging back toward
conservatism. A few years hence we may look
Tor another radical wave. This recurrent radical
ism, finding voice in new movements, is a tonic
which essential to the national health.
While these political waves rise and fall, they
help the ship Of state steadily forward. Parties
may come and parties may go, but America is ad-
always.
