THIRD PARTY MOVE
DUE, SAYS MUNSEY
Publisher Thinks Time Ripe
for Breaking of Old
Organizations.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, May 2S.-"Conditions
never were SO ripe as they are today
for the formation of third party
IL conditions in 1912 had advanced to
their present stage, Roosevelt would
have swept the country. and the third
party would have succeeded"
Thus spoke Frank A. Munsey. pub
Usher of four New York newspapers,
today when asked his comment on
William Randolph Hearsts statement
that IL Henry Ford were nominated
by an Independent party Ford would
receive Hearst support.
Mr.. Munsey does not advocate the
formation of a third party nor has he
taken himself out of the ranks of the
republican party, though he has been
bitterly opposed to President Hard
ing's world court policy. But like
Mr.. Hearst. who reads the signs of
the times and make his comments. 50
does Mr.. Munsey have his thoughts
on what the present mix up in the
national political situation means to
the country.
Conservatives Would Unite.
If third party with a radical at
it's head is put into the field, then
Mr.. Munsey believes there will come
a conservative party to which re-
publicans and democrats will flock. To
that extent the movement that makes
Ford an independent ticket candidate
helps to solidify and concentrate the
conservative strength in opposition.
The trouble with the present sit
uation," said Mr.. Munsey, "is that the
conservatives are divided-they be-
long to the two old parties. Divided
the conservatives haven't a show in
the world. You can't get liberal con-
servatives. for instance. In new or
ganization unless there is a radical
outburst If there arises a strong
radical party and 1t makes a good
showing in 1924. perhaps even a win
ming place. you will get your liberal
conservative party at once. The old
parties would then die, and ought to
die"
Mr.. Munsey pointed out to the writer
that the Roosevelt party was formed in
too big a hurry, that 1t didn't have time
after the 1912 conventions to get well
is far different with a whole year ahead
Of the conventions. He added:
Wants Sane Leader.
"I would not like to see a red or
socialistic party when I speak of radi-
cal party-certainly not party that
would frighten people, but party with
sane type of man who grips the pub
lie fancy. There are a number Of good
men for such leadership. Hiram john
son is one, Albert Beveridge is another"
Mr.. Munsey didn't essay any COM
ments on Mr.. Ford's candidacy beyond
the remark that If Henry Ford came out
absolutely against the world court, he
would be charting a course entirely diff
ferent from the two old parties which
are committed to the world court He
does not underestimate Mr.. Ford's politi-
cal strength and potentiality.
Unquestionably the talk of Ford is
the biggest thing in national politics
both here and in Washington. 1t is
reminiscent of the wave of sentiment
which fired the political skies for
a while when Herbert Hoover was
talked Of as a possible candidate for

Drop Out of Negotiations.
BY the Associated Press.
SHANGHAI. May 2s.-Foreign resi-
dents of Hankow, at a mass meeting,
have adopted resolutions dealing with
the Shantung' bandit outrage and with
general unrest in China. They urge
that the foreign governments insist
ately withdraw it's troops, represent
atives and Intermediates from Lin
cheng. and that the foreign legations
take up negotiations with the bandits
for immediate release of the captives,
holding the Chinese government re-
sponsible for any liability incurred
in the sttlement and furnishing the
authorities who permitted such an
outrage in the district under their
control"
The Hankow residents also seek
"disbandment and disarmament of
superf1uous Chinese troops, with the
support of armed foreign forces IL

Ask Guard for Trains.
Protection of main trunk railways
eigners, is believed an excellent sug-
gestion, a step capable of indefinite
extension. Immediate adoption of
this plan is urged.
To protect foreigners residing
around Chikanshan and Kuling, the
continued presence of big warships
at Hankow and Kiukiang is urged, so
that volunteers will be available at
these resorts. M
mended that Kuling be provided with
senior naval officer authorized to

to protect the residents IL requested.
Foreign representatives are urged
to notify their governments of the

BRYAN DEN0UNCES

Says Article on Modernism

of Religion.

Declaring there is no antagonism
between religion and real science" I"
William Jennings Bryan. who passed
through Washington today on his way
from the Presbyterian General Assem-
bly, to Florida, declared that the article
on modernism in The Star yesterday
obscures the real issue between re-
ligion and science. Calling his atten-
tion to the statements in the article,
The Star secured the following state
ment from Mr.. Bryan:
The document is quite characteris-
tic of the so-called liberals. They put
up a man of straw and assault ii with
big words. There is no antagonism
Science is classified observation-disclosures

forth by scientists in the name of SCI

guess because 1t Is improved and de-
moralizing. 1t leads man to look down.

stead of looking up for inspiration.
THE document published yesterday
obscures the issue. II the man who
wrote the statement had explained that

'If these men believe that man

dispense with their long and high
sounding words and use everyday
language that the masses can under

Let them point out the parts OF
the Bible that they reject and the
public can understand their issue.
The Presbyterian General Assembly
spoke for nine-tenths of the Chris
tians when it reaflrmed' the church's
belief in the infallibility of the Scrip
ture, the virgin birth of Christ, the
atonement and the bodily resurrec-
ton of Christ. Evolution is objec-
tionable because its tendency is to
undermine Christianity
why substitute an improved hy-
pothesis for the word of God?
The five points that were reaffirmed
as both the true and essential doc
trines are: An infallible Bible. the vir-
gin birth, the bodily resurrection of
Christ, the sacrificial character Of
His death and the truth of Christ's
miracles"

leased. under the counter proposals.

to be held at "a proper and conven-
lent place"

back to the brigands' camp. where he
has been one of the prisoners. after

its readiness to assume payment of

Most Sweeping Changes in
Years Due Wehn New
Heads Take Office.

The most important changes in the
administrative and supervisory forces
of the public school system in sew
! eral years will be made tomorrow
when Assistant Superintendent of
| Schools Stephen f. Kramer takes
over the principalship of Central
High School, washington's largest
secondary institution, and Robert L.
Haycock, for many years supervising
principal of the third division, takes
Mr.. Kramer's office at the Franklin
school.
Besides the shifting of these two
officers there will be other changes
in the supervisory staff. DR.. u. G..
Kimball, supervising principal of the
seventh division, will be transferred
to the third division and Miss Ade-
laids Davis and Miss Jessie La Sale
will take over the supervising prin-
cipalship of the fourth and second
divisions, respectively. The second
and fourth divisions, long defunct,
were re-created as q result of the re-
districting of the first nine divisions
of the school system.
Miss La Sale has been given a
small division. geographically and
numerically, in order that she may
devote. a portion Of her time to the
educational measurement and re-
search work which, she will introduce
into the school system. There are
only four schools in the new second
INSTRUMENTATION, Ross, Morgan and
Cooke. The other divisions are larger
territorially and contain many more
buildings than Miss La Sales district.
