No Third Party
(NeaU York Times)

That Progressive dream-child,
the Third Party, never was and
is not. It shall be born, said the
faithful. Thrust be born. The
country can't be saved without
it. Time after time they sought
in vain for a doorstep on which
to lay the babe Of their halluci-
nation. Everybody slammed the
door. Nobody was at home.
The Progressives with one con-
sent began to make excuse.
Here was a splendid opportun-
ity for somebody else. Senator
Norris, Hiram Johnson, Mr..
Borah-the whole lot of wished
for guardians and adopters-de-
clined it warmly on their own ac-
count and as warmly pressed it
on each other. Twice within
five days has Governor Pinchot
descended upon Washington and
collogued with and taken poll
of the anti-Hooverites.
TO Senator Borah, who must
already be cogitating the prin-
ciples he should pht into the next
Republican platform, the Cover
nor offered his own powerful
support, sixty delegates from
Pennsylvania, and fat cam
paign fund. Mr.. Borah, who
knows, as everybody except Mr..
Pinchot must know, that there
is no ghost of a shadow of a
chance to "stop' Mr.. Hoover in
the primaries, wearlly waved
away the knight of the sorrow
full countenance. While the un-
lucky tempter was trying to
tempt, Mr. Moses was pinning
on Mr.. Borah's coat a button
with the strange device: THE
Worlds Greatest Progressive,
William f. Borah, for Presi-
dent"
The worlds greatest Progress
sive is Regular Republican this
year. He will write resolutions
for Mr. Hoover's party. OF the
other Progressive Senators some
will be Republican and some
Democratic, as the cards fall and
the platforms read and the ex-
igencies of saving their bacon
in the future may require. OF
the nurses of the great Third
Party movement none is left ex-
cept Clifford ungratefully,
pitifully, painfully cleft"

where a crucial bloc of states may
decide the election, has been pro-
posed to President Hoover by Re-
publican leaders, pleased with the
reaction to his campaign speech at
Cleveland, Saturday.
Pressure is being brought to bear
to get the President to speak at
Detroit-possibly this coming week.

At the White House. officials said
nothing has been decided yet" but
admitted strenuous efforts we're be-
ing made to prevail on the chief
executive to make the trip.
All that Walter Newton, the Pres

however, was his campaign plans

The fighting role" that Mr.,
Hoover has assumed, as when he
lashed out in his Cleveland address
at charges made by the Democratic
opposition, has encouraged party
leaders. In addition they were
pleased at the reception he received
on the Ohio trip.

OUTLOOK DARK
FOR PROGRESS
TOWARD PEACE
Disarmament, Manchurian
Questions Seen Unlikely
to Be Settled.
BY WILLIAM PHILIP SINIMS
Seripps-HOward Foreign Editor

WASHINGTON, Oct. l7.-So grave
has become the impasse over dis
armament and Manchuria at Ge-
neva that officials here fear uri-
vately that, short of a miracle a
satisfactory settlement of either
dispute virtually seems doomed.
Adding to the gloom is the knowl-
edge that the key nations involved
France and Germany in one con-
flict and Japan and China in the
other-are convinced they are fight
ing for their very lives, and the law
of Self-preservation admits of little
or no compromise.
A nationaliStic, junker-ruled Ger
many, desperately determined to
scrap the treaty of Versailles. is de-
manding as a first step, 10 obtain
recognition Of her right to arms
equality with her neighbors.
Law of Self-Preseryation.
France, persuaded that she will
be invaded again if she gives way.
just as stubbornly is refusing to
meet the German demand.
China, shorn of three of her
richest provinces, demands that
return Manchuria in line with the
world peace treaties, while Japan
imbued with the idea that expan-
sion in Asia is imperative if she is
to survive, categorically refuses to
yield.
Faced with these Problems, the
League of Nations stands with its
back to the wall. It's fate depends
upon the outcome. Failure to settle
either problem, its most ardent sup
porterS admit, means its destruction
so far, at least, as its usefulness
in major field of activity is con-
cerned
The United States, with as much
at stake as any other power, is ex-
pected to insist upon action.
Diplomatically the adninistra-
ton is prepared to go the limit to
save both the disarmament confer
ence and the Manchurian parley.
SERIOUS BLOW TO u. ,.
If, as President Hoover insisted
in his Cleveland speech, the plight
of the American people is due to
the situation abroad, failure now
to do his utmost to help stave off
the impending world crisis, would,
it is observed, expose him to the
charge of amazing inconsistency.
Failure of the League of Nations
satisfactorily to settle the disarma-
ment and far eastern issues would
be a serious blow to the United
States.
The ornaments race which would
almost inevitably follow would cost
American taxpayers billions of dol
lars.
1t would expose American inter-
estS in the western Pacific to new
dangers and the United States to
humiliation and loss of prestige in

China, it further is stated, al
most certainly would go to pieces,
possibly partitioned among other
powers, and the United States would
lose its greatest potential future

DEMOCRATS TO
RULE SENATE.
SURVEY SHOWS
Picturesque and Powerful
Members of Old Guard
Slated for Gate.
BY RAY TUCKER
Times staff Writer

WASHINGTON, Oct. ia DEM
ocratic senate, bereft of several pic
turesque and powerful members OF
the Republican old guard, will be
elected in November if present por-
tents are correct.
Reports indicate that election day
may see the most murderous
slaughter of veteran warriors in
many years.
The chamber may miss the wit OF
Senators George H. Moses OF New
Hampshire the good nature OF
Sunny jim" Watson of Indiana,
the solemnity of Reed Smoot Of
Utah and the prohibition fervor Of
Wesley L. Jones of Washington,
author of the five and ten" law.
These four men, whose combined
senatorial service totals eighty-two
years, are reported to be in danger.
The extent of such a catastrophe
is measured by the prominent posi-
lions they occupy. Moses is presi-
dent pro tenn, Watson is majority
leader. Jones is the driest member,
now that Senator Morris Sheppard
(Dem.. Texas, has accepted the
Democratic repeal plank, and Smoot
is the high priest of protection, for
his helpmate in framing the Haw-
ley-smoot tariff bill was defeated
in the primary.
Expect Democratic Control
In their respective fields these
four have no rivals, and have been
towers of strength to Republican
administrations.
Even if the predicted landslide
does not materialize, it is expected
the Democrats will take control OF
the senate for the first time since
1918, when an anti-Wilson revolu-
ton placed the Republicans in
power on both sides of the capitol.
More optimistic Democratic esti-
mates indicate the next senate will
consist of fifty-four Democrats,
forty-one Republicans and one
Farmer-Labor member. Other pre-
dictions suggest an alignment OF
fifty Democrats, forty-flve Repub-
licanS and one Farmer-Labor men,
Der.
The prospect of shift in power
lies in the fact that only one sitting
Democrat is believed to face defeat,
while seven Republicans are having
a hard time, and at least three are
regarded as certain to fall.
The lone Democrat is Senator
George McGill of Kansas, although
he does not concede his defeat.
Seven G. o. P. Seats in Peril
Six of the seven Republican seats
in jeopardy are those of Senators
Otis F. Glenn Gid, Jones, Moses,
Samuel Shortridge of California,
Smoot and Watson.
The seventh was held by the late
Charles w. Waterman (Colo) and
temporarily is occupied by Walter
Walker through appointment. 1t is
to be filled by new man in No.
vember.
. Should the Democrats win all
these seven seats, the lineup would
be f1fty-for as against forty-one,
and one Farmer-Labor member. 1t
generally is believed, however, that
the Democrats have their best
chances in Illinois, Utah and Indi-
ana, with the prospect that the Re-
publicans may hold the other seats.
If only these three places are won
by the Democrats, and that in Kan
saS lost, the senate will consist of
fifty Democrats, forty-f1ve Republic
ans and Senator ShipStead of Min
nesota.

Swing From SeCtarianiSm
in Work Proposed
by Commission.
Rm Tnifed Presa


NEW YORK, Oct. 17.-Urgent
need of a profound Transformation
of the church in the mission field
of the Orient" with a swing away
from sectarianism and denomina-
tionalism as one of the first things
to be considered, is recommended
by the appraisal commission, Lay
mems Foreign Missions Inquiry, just
released.
1.-THE main direction indicated is
away from sectarianism toward
unity and cooperation, and away
from religion focused upon doctrine
toward religion focused upon the
vital issues of life for the individual
and for the social environment in
which the individual lives" the re-
port declared.
The commission, comprised of fiji
teen leading churchmen represent
ing seven denominations, returned
recently from nine months exam
ination of missions in China, Japan,
India and Burma.
Large churcheS were, IN the
main, found to be keeping pace
with the times, but among the nu-
merouS smaller bodies it was found
that 'the standard preaching is far
too doctrinal and is complicated
system of ideas instead of being a
thrilling way of life" arswo5
Even so, the foreign missions were
credited in the report with main
tanning a more advanced viewpoint
and a more encouraging attitude
than the churches at home.
Origin of the missionary move
ment at a time when the church
was divided, is deplored, and many
of the evils existing both at home
and abroad today are traced to this,
referred to as constituting "a major
scandal of Christianity for those
who look upon it from the outside
