BOTH PLATFORMS
CONDEM ned BY
SENATOR NORRIS

WASHINGTG1.S, June 29.-The
platform adopted by the Democratic
National convention at Houston is
as unsatisfactory to Senator Norris,
Republican, Nebraska, as the one
adopted by the Republicans at Kan
sas City, he said in a statement is
sued here today.
"The Democratic national plat
form is remarkable for what it
avoids rather than what it says, y
says Norris. Like its Republican
predecessor at Kansas City, it is
silent on the sinister and deccitful
activities Of the water power
trust''
The Nebraska senator, who has
been discussed as possible third
party hope said a third party now
was impossible. This together with
Norris denunciation of both plat
forms, leaves him opposed to both
major parties and supporting no
one.
