Fletcher Attacks Task OF
Rebuilding Toward
Liberalism.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN.

The Republican party. after its
crushing defeat at the polls Tuesday,
faces serious and perhaps long
process of rebuilding or elimination in
favor of a new political party.
Chairman Henry P. Fletcher OF the
Republican National Committee plans
10 confer with G. o. p. leaders from
all parts of the country to see what
can be done toward rebuilding the
party along more liberal lines. He
said as much before he left here yes
terday to 20 to New York He ex-
pected to talk with Republican lead
ers there today.
Later. perhaps in January, he may
call a conference of Republicans to
meet in washington. At that time
Congress will have assembled. The
Republican survivors of the recent
election and the hold Repub-
lican Senators will be here.
Younger Men in Line.
With the elimination of so many
of the old. regular Republican leaders
from public life at the hands of the
voters, the hopes of the party center
largely on a new deal for the 6. O. P.
with younger men and new faces and
new issues.
The Republicans during the last
campaign were divided seriously over
the question Of making an issue of
the Roosevelt New Deal. Some of
the party candidates, like Reed of
Pennsylvania, Fess in Ohio and Sim
mons in Nebraska, fought the New
Deal with vigor. All of them were
defeated, Senator Arthur Vanden-
berg of Michigan, on the other hand.
praised some of the New Deal and
declared that he would support it and
the President wherever he considered
them right. Vandenberg's political
judgment appears to have been vim
dicated. He won reelection by a
sizeahle vote over his New Deal
Democratic opponent. ,..
How to handle the New Deal issue
is likely to be serious problem for
the Republicans in Congress and out.
In the face of the overwhelming
majorities in favor of the New Deal
cast in States which have been
strongly Republican In the past, Re-
publ1cans are wondering If they would
not be merely butting their heads
against stone wall to start an i'm
mediate drive in Congress against
the Roosevelt policies. And yet, there
is the question: How are they to
rlnd a real issue elsewhere?
Conservatives Need a Party.
Eventually, conservative leadexhip
ana a conservative party will raise
their heads in opposition to the New
Deal, unless the New Dealers them
selves become more conservative. Can

Compromise Rejected by

circles expressed the belief today a
British compromise proposal is not
likely 10 met the full approval OF the
Japanese delegates TO the naval con-
versations.
While the Japanese declined to COM
ment until a complete study Is made
OF the plan, press reports from Toxic
indicated there was considerable op-
position because the entire program
OF the japanese was not accepted az
presented.
Both the japanese and the Ameri-
cans. however, regard the proposal OF
equality in principle as a great change
OF attitude on the part of the British.
since the latter previously opposed
equality for Japan and supported the
American stand.
U. S. Standing Pat.
r. L. Craigie of the British delega-
ton visited the United States dele
gates today and informed them of the
British proposals to the Japanese.
There was no indication Of a change
in the American opposition TO equality.
The delegates from the United States
reiterated their desire to continue
naval limitation as provided by exist.
ing treaties.
American delegates are strongly cp-
posed TO British compromise naval
program with Japan and appear de-
termined never to grant equality to
the Japanese.
England's tentative proposal gives
Toxic equality in principle but an in
ferior position 10 Britain and the
United States actually in tonnage.
The Japanese are studying the
proposition and may not reply for
several days.
The suggested compromise provides
for recognition of equality in principle.
which is the chief demand contained
in the Japanese program for a new
naval limitation treaty. EQUALITY
would be written in a far less blunt
manner than Toxic demands and
would be coupled with Japanese
declaration that she would not build
up TO equality in tonnage in a certain
number OF years. The number OF wears
was not mentioned by the British.
Would Keep Limitations.
Japanese strength in relation to the
other two powers also would be kept
somewhat to the existing 5-5-3 ratio
by a compromise on the question of
the method of limitation. Most of the
chief limitation principles of the
Washington and London naval treaties
would be maintained, but a maximum
tonnage limit would be set.
Premier Ramsay Macdonald offered
the far-reaching compromise plan yes
terday in an effort to break the present
deadlock, caused by the American and
British refusals to accept Tokio's pro-
gram. Sir John Simon, foreign Sec
retary. explained the plan to the Jap
anese and at second meeting British
