WHY NON.PARTTsAN1sM FAILS

George AIDE once said that the first
independent voters in the United
states were Republicans who had not
neen fed. Whatever, its origin, the
independent vote in America has
grown to tremendous power, and the
efforts of every politician are bent
on giving it the direction he wishes.
Of late years, there has been an
effort to organize this vote, or at
least sections of the vote, into various
non-partisan associations which will
either obtain the nomination of GER
tain sets of candidates, or pledge
nominees to certain acts or programs.
This has been the result. largely, of
the feeling that the United States is
irrevocably committed to the two
party system, and that any good must
come through the dealing with the
existing parties.
This worked out as "a fact with
prohibition, but has not and is not
likely in all cases. Its danger is q
basic corruption of politics in certain
interests, pledges to catch votes, and
general weakness of the non elected.
1t is also begging the question.
The failure of rev partie, ih the
United States can largely be traced
to their ambition. All wan. to elect
president the first year, when their
job is to elect congressman. Ii Con-
gress were pervaded' by a number
OF small party groups, standing for
real issues, giving legislation real
scrutiny, moribund Legislature might
be regenerated.
Non-partisanism has been, on the
whole, a failure. The two-party sys-
tenn has not stood up well because
the parties have gradually driftcd TO-
gether and now stand for nothing es-

Commissioner

(By DR.. A. r. Lewis, State Health
Commissioner
Because Of constant complaints
coming into office from all parts OF
the state regarding the sale of spoil.
ed eggs, ! deemed it necessary "a
construct a law which is now in full
force and effect for the protection
Of the public.
The specific points in the law are
that no individuals or firm shall
have in their possession with intent
to sell any eggs unfit for human
food. IAN egg shall be deemed unfit
to sell for human food if it be added
or mouldy, a black rot, a white rot,
or a blood ring, or if it has adher-
ent yoke. or a bloody or green white;
or If it be incubated beyond the blood
ring stage; if it consist in whole
or part of a filthy decomposed or
'putrid substance" reads the law.
In order to tell when an egg is
unfit for human food" the process
Of Gambling has been provided in the
law. The term 'candling", states the
law, shall be construed to mean the
careful examination in a partly dark
room, or place, Of the whole egg by
means of strong light, the appar-
tus and method employed to be such
as shall be approved by the State
Health department"
Firms having eggs for resale or
consignment are required to include
a "candling certificate" in each case
of eggs handled, showing that this
process has been complied with. 1t
is considered a "misdemeanor" to
violate this egg law.
Ever since the arrival of hot
weather, the spoiled egg" menace
has been increasing until it has reach
ed the stage Of a danger to the pub
lie health. Since eggs are such a
valuable food when wholesome, it is
my desire that only such eggs be
handled for food in the state of Ok
lahoma.
