CALLS ELECTION MILD
POLITICAL REVOLUTION
Senator Walsh Says People Have
Rebuked "Standpat" Ad-
ministration.
By the Associ1 ted Press.

BY the Assori5ted Press.
CLINTON, Mass. November IL
Senator David !. Walsh. as chairman
of the democratic senatorial commit
tee, in a formal statement. said that
the election on Tuesday was not so
much a democratic victory as reouke
to "standpat and retroactive forces
now in control OF the national policy.
Il am inclined" he said. TO regard
the result Of Tuesdays election as
somewhat in the nature of passive
political revolution. it indicates wide
spread dissatisfaction and discomfort
expressed by the electorate against
the only agency in their government
which they could protest-the present
administration. The people have em-
phaticaliy rejected the promiscuous
bestowal of subsidies and bounties
through tariff protection to the few AT
the expense Of the many; a post-bellum
tax program which shifts tax burdens
from big business to small business
and from the wealthy to the impoV-
erished.
Personal Liberty Tendency.
In many eastern states and. indeed,
to a considerable extent throughout
the middle west, there seems to be
MARKED teuueUCS 70 IcsSAl lHo iS
striction of personal liberty which the
Volstead act imposes.
THE farmers. the working classes.
the salaried group and the small
manufacturers and merchants are de-
termined to rid their government OF
the domination of the reactionary and
predatory interests. This, in part. Is
the explanation of the situation in
the west, where the issue is rapidly
becoming one between radicals and
conservatives rather than between
liberals and conservatives.
Il hope in view of the election that
the democratic party may become the
militantly liberal party. SO that we
shall have a strong conservative and
strong liberal party. rather than
two parties which the people unfor-
tunately are inclined to believe mere
ly to have different degrees of con-
servatism. The absence of strong lib
eral leadership in the democratic
party in some western states in the
past has almost exterminated the
party in those states.
