BOTH PART|ESFA
AN INTERNAL CRISIS
Third Party Talked of After
Split on Treaty and
Sales Tax.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

Two critical situations are de-
veloping, one inside the republican
party and the other in the demo-
cratic party, which may have a far
reaching effect on American politics.
The democrats are split over the
treaty with Germany and the repub-
licans are at skies and sevens over
sales tax as opposed to the tax
bill passed by the House.
Several of the most influential men
in the democratic party have stated
privately that if the democratic sem
ators do not stand together as a
unit against the German treaty they
will withdraw their support from
the party henceforth. The congress
sional elections are not far away.
The democratic senator's who are
eager for party harmony see storm
clouds ahead. This much is assured
if the German treaty is ratified by
the aid of democratic votes it will
be a long time before the sore will
be healed. 1t, will split the party
wide open, and there is already talk
Of forming a liberal party to be conn
posed of pro-league republicans and
pro-league democrats.
AS for the controversy inside the
party, it is fraught with
much danger, but the chances are it
will not do permanent injury. The
fact is the farmer-labor coalition
threatens to embarrass the Harding
more than has been
apparent on the surface. The true

Appropriations Expected to Har-
monize With Conference.

Whatever decision is reached by
the conference for Limitation of arma-
ment with respect to a reduction in
the armies and navies of the powers
participating will find an immediate
reflection in the military and naval
appropriation bills. These bills are
to be considered by the Congress
which convenes in regular session in
December. Plans which are being
formulated by Chairman Madden fo
the House appropriations committee
contemplate harmonizing the appro-
priations for national defense with
the decisions reached by the confer
epce for Limitation of ornaments.
Recognizing the vital effect that in
ternational agreements must have
upon legislation for future prepared
ness. coupled with the desire of the
public for early relief of burdensome
taxes. resplting from excessive arma-
ment, Cha nan Madden and his asso-
ciates on the appropriation committee
are agreed to postpone the prepara-
tions of the Army and Navy appro-
priation bills until the result of the
disc rmament conference be known.
The Army and Navy appropriation
bills are usually among the first TO
be drafted by the committee. The
regular session Of Congress. however.
probably will see some of the other
supply bills well Under way IL not
passed, before the appropriations for
national defense are ready for recon-
mendation to the House by the ap-
propriations committee.

When asked II he intended max
ing Washington his future home
he replied emphatically that he
was not. He explained that while
he admired the city and considered
it one of the most beautiful in the
country, he preferred not to live
here under the present circum-
stances. In this connection he said:
II have a supreme contempt, II
you will pardon the expression,
for the man who lies around like
dead cock in the pit waiting for
the man who knocked him out to
use a hypodermic in injecting new
life into him."
