Third Party Sure
in 1924, Observers
in Politics Declare
Bv LAWRENCE MARTIN
Bv Special Staff Correspondent

Copyright, 1929, by the United Press)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-A third
party will be manufactured for 1924,
whether there is public demand for
it or not.
Politicians of the great parties de-
clare that the next two wears will see
determined efforts to create Il third
party and to whether it will finally
appear as a spontaneous expression of
dissatisfaction with existing factions
depends upon three things:
J. Taxation and the cost of living.
.. Industrial and economical policies
of the government
3. How fast Europe gets back on its
feet
But whether public sentiment de-
mands it or not, observers whose pre-
dictions seldom go wrong see third
party presidential ticket in the field in
1924 drawing many votes. But the
third party will be organized and main
ly supported by people who are not
now Republicans or Democrats. The
kind of third party the Republican and
Democratic leaders is concerned about
is one made up of Republican and
Democratic voters, or both--a third
party that will ruin either one or both
of the now dominant political groups.
Republican leaders, for instance, fear
more greatly the farm bloc which will
sit in the sixtyeighth congress as a
third party nucleus than all the con
ferences of radicals, liberals and intel
lectuals that can be held. If the farm
bloc develops into third party, it will
do so on its record in the next two
years, whereas the radicals and intel
lectuals will simply make a third party
among themselves and try to win sup
port for it on pledges and promises.
If taxes remain high and lie heavily
on the farmers and business man; if
industrial legislation unpleasing to
labor and economical laws unhelpful to
the farmer are passed, and if Europe
does not come back, creating markets
for American goods and prosperity for
American workers, there is very likely
to be strong third party demonstra
tion by rebels within the ranks of the
two present parties.
!. A third party, like any other, de-
pends largely on its leadership for sue
cess and for that reason, the sponsors
of existing new party movements are
trying hard to line up Senators Borah,
LaFollette, Johnson and other Pro
gressives with their various political
creeds. These senators are standing
aloof. Not even LaFollette wishes just
yet to join any handmade third party.
Borah refuses to be trapped into jump
ing the party fence. johnson grows
more regular as the days go by. All of
them want to watch developments
during the coming two years before
they quit their present allegiance.

Publicity Committee Named
to Advertise Ell Centre

Following the dinner of the Chamber
of Commerce last evening, an enthusi-
astic meeting of the board of directors
and chairmcn of committees was held
at headquarters at which an extensive
program of work for the winter season
was mapped out These include civic
improvements and membership cam,
paign, details of which are now being
worked out
The directors passed resolution en-
dorsing the establishment of an expert
mental station of the United States De.
partment of Agriculture in Imperial
Valley and urged that pressure be
brought to bear by all civic organiza
tions in the valley on the federal gov
ernment to provide such station.

mittee to be selected by the chairman
1t is proposed to give Dairy Day"
wide. publicity and make it an occa
sion to bring the dairying industry of
Imperial Valley to the attention of the
entire state and southwest.
Name Publicity Committee
A committee on publicity with NJ. o.
King as chairman, has been formed BY
the Chamber of Commerce, and it is
proposed through this committee to
keep FL Centre prominently before the
people of the state and the travelling
public. The establishment of such n
committee was the occasion for consid-
cradle discussion by the directors last
evening, it being the opinion of all
present that. FL Centre has been slow
in getting the right kind of publicity.
With several transcontinental trains
passing through here daily, and con
stant stream of tourists, an excellent
opportunity for constructive propagan-
da has been neglected and the chamber
proposes to see that this condition is
remcdied. Other communities with far
less resources than FL Centre are draw
ing new people every day, and from
now on, FL Centre is out for its share
of these newcomers. Details for an cx-
tensive propaganda campaign will be
worked out by the committee and put
into practice as soon as possible.
