CUTTING Faction
FUSES WITH c. 0. P.
New Party Declares Self
Progressive Under Ex-
BuII.MooSer.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
ALBUQUERQUE, N. Mex, July 23
Headed by the man who espoused
the cause of the Bull Moosers" %
years ago in the days Of Teddy Roose-
welt, New Mexico again today has a
powerful Progressive Republican party
under the leadership and standards of
Senator Bronson Cutting
Fusion Saturday in Santa Fe of
Senator Cuttings Progressive party
with the Republican party brought to
the State something new in its po-
litical history and the formation of
a new party which has through the
Senator declared itself as predom-
insntly Progressive.
In 1912 Senator Cutting came to
New Mexico and was prominently
identified with the Progressive or Bull
Moose" movement of that period when
Theodore Roosevelt was seeking re-
turn to the White House on a third
party ticket.
Secretary Of Third Party.
Senator Cutting was secretary Of the
third party in the State.
For % years he has steadfastly
been aligned against the conservative
old-line parties. Saturday in Santa
Fe saw him united with the old-line
Republican party-the group he broke
with in 1882 to support President
Franklin D. Roosevelt and the present
New Mexico Democratic administra-
tion. But 1t is a different party, al
most radical in its departure from any
thing New Mexico has ever had.
The union of Progressive and Re-
publican parties was accomplished on
a basis of equal representation on the
Republican State Central Committee.
but the party will for the time being
at least be unoficislly known as the
Progressiye-Republican party-the des-
ignation applied to its leaders.
Although no party platform has been
adopted, Senator Cutting yesterday in
an address laid down some principles
which 1t is believed will be party planks
after the State convention in Septem-
Der. The conference committees which
brought about the fusion adopted a
declaration of policy which embodied
the Senator's ideals. Those principles
involve revision of the Federal banking
system, reform and reorganization Of
the States educational system. election
laws, public health set-up and legis-
lative apportionment. enactment of
social welfare legislation and ether
minor recommendations for the State.
Few Oppose Fusion.
With but few exceptions the union
of the two parties was favorably looked
upon by leaders in both parties. A few
so-called "Old Guard" Republicans re-
main opposed to the fusion and are
expected to join hands with the Dem
ocrsts. Principal leader in this group
is former United States Senator Holm
0. Bursum.
Albert G. Simms, former Representa-
tive and Republican National Commit
teeman for New Mexico, and his wife,
Mrs. Ruth Hanna Mccormick Simms,
iormer Illinois Representative, have not
as yet indicated their attitude. They
are in Europe at present.

To The Christian Science Monitor:
In vour issue of November 26, the statement
: made that in the IVA "the government Is slul-
, irving TO utilize its yardstck, which IS another
,,av Of introducing old-fashioned competition
oIono new-fashioned lines" The Magazine OF wan
c+roat in it's issue of November "a, states that u
sbas made persistent efforts to induce IVA u
refpte or confirm certain statements winch sure
W have bearing on the accuracy OF the yardstiek'
" A representative to the IVA has replied that
no comment would be made
These statements are to the effect that the f"A
will give so per cent of the cost OF distribution

STILL A SORRY DEMOCRAT

OF the proposal of Thomas n McCarter preS-
dent of the Edison Electric company, that the gov
eminent cooperate with the power industry IN
prompt testing of the constitutionality OF the IVA
authority, Chairman Frank r. McNinch OF the fed
eral power commission says:
in all the history of the American government
no parallel for such proposal can be found"
Ergo contends the chairman, the call is not
for the government to halt, but for the industry
to catch step and move forward in progressive
lines"
We think if President Franklin D. Roosevelt,
reasonable man if masterful, will look this state
nlent over and reflect bit, he may be able to
discover why former Senator Cameron Morrison
when he was sealing his own political death war
rant said of Elder McNinch: "He is good neigh
Dor. but mighty sorry Democrat"
Whose business could it be to cooperate IN the
testing of the constitutonality of piece of emer-
gencv legislation if not the governments? The
American union, if it stays pct for any consider
able length of time, depression or no depression,
must have something more of purpose than the
whims of a Presbyterian elder become power
commissioner or a hurriedy- established authority,
whether it be of valley, mountain or plain.-The

NATURES WAYS ARE MOST
IMPRESSIVE
(BY BRUCE CATION

DR.. Allan R. DafOe, the Ontario doctor
who brought the famous Dionne quintup-
lets into the world, seems to have had an
excellent time on his vacation trip to New
York, but the martels of the nation
greatest city do not seem to have impressed
him Overmuch.
Newspaper reporters discovered that,
while he was duly shown all the great
sights, he found it ever so much more ex-
citing to talk about the FIVE little girls VINO
have been his especial care for the last
few months. The miracles of Manhattan,
in fact, seem to have left him more or less
cold; he has miracle of his own to talk
about, infinitely more impressive.
And this, after all, is quite natural. In
ventiOn and wealth may combine to rear
some surprising wonders-but the mira
cles Mother Nature can achieve, when she
sets her mind to it, make these look small.
What is an Empire State building or a
skyscraper skyline compared with five ba-
bies who all arrived at once?

RESTORE CONFIDENCE TO ALL AND
RECOVERY is ASSURED
IN RRUCE CAIIONl


Once more the doctors have gathered
bv the bedside. and this time their pre-
scription seems to be that nature must be
allowed to take its course.
Specialist Leonard P. AyreS, the Cleve-
land Trust Co.'S famous statistician, re-
ports bluntly;
I'VE have enormous shortages of goods
and buildings needing TO be made up, MIL
lions of idle workers eager for jobs, and
billions of unused credit seeking employ
ment.
ALWAYS heretofore that combination
has produced prosperity This time the
barriers blocking the way are Of our own
making. They are not natural economic
barriers, but artificial political ones. The
question is whether We as a nation have
the stamina of character to remove them. >
simultaneously, President Alfred P.
Sloan. Jr., of General Motors, remarks that
the NRA is nothing but a scheme Of ''pov-
erty for all" and that the country is turn
ing away from a berlief in RECOMMENDATION
to a new confidence in the old pioneer viz
tues: and he continues:
Men are becoming increasingly aware
that the strongest instrumentality of re-
vival and reconstruction is the existing
system of free enterprise"
These remarks by Messrs. Ayres and
Sloan do not stand alone. They are made
against background of similar statements
by other industrialists and economists in
recent weeks; and they indicate pretty
clearly a widespread convictions on the
part of business and industry that now is
the psychological moment to begin a great
revival, if only people will keep their
hands off the machinery.

HOLLYWOOD, Dec. 26. CUP.
To the red and green wreathes
that heralded the Yuletide season
along Hollywood boulevard there
should have been added a sOmber
touch of black.
The symbolical color Of mourn
ing would have been appropriate
homage to Marie Dressler, Lew
Cody and the other favorites who
died during the year.
Death removed more than its
usual quota from the motion pic
ture world in 1884. It's toll was
exacted through accident. natural
causes and suicide. In the colony
where frayed nerves provoke ire
quent outbursts there was, albeit,
not a single murder. Violence was
held to an occasional one-punch
fight, each scrupulously recorded
as "The Battle Of the Century"
DRESSLER'S DEATH
Greatest blow to the industry
2nd its millions Of fans was the
death of Marie Dressler. The be-
loved coincidence who topped
them all as a box office attraction
succumbed to cancer but only
after courageous fight which as
founded her physicians for weeks.
With her demise, Will Rogers be-
came the industry's best drawing

A voice that had thrilled mil
lions of radio listeners was Silenc-

life of Russ Colombo. The Groom

called at a friends home. They

ger of a supposedly empty gun.
As this is written, Colombo'S aged
mother believes him living. In
frail health, she was told he went
to England for picture work.

heart attack seized him a few
hours after he returned from a
gay party. Cody was one Of the
last members of that fast-disap-
pearing group which found life
less conventional in Hollywood's

Another bon vivant of the same
stampt was Lou Tellengen. Once

Dramatic to the end, he plunged

times, inflicting a mortal wound.

WHERE WILL 1t STOP2

Just where, do you suppose, once that it gets

private enterprise?
If it is justfable in its solictous concern as 80
what the folks paying for any single COM
modify, why should such concern not be felt as to
prices they are being charged for all other goods
and commodities? ......
And if it goes into an enterprise itself, in order

the same high motif? ...

W7ASHINGTON.-Did fair
w Nazi agent worm her way in
% White House favor under the
yaise of an uplift worker?
There isn't any fiat answer to
oe given to that one, but it's in
;pired by an interesting sequence
If circumstances.
A bright, attractive young
woman, Drumming with sex ap-
peal, did arrive here few weeks
igo. She did interest the Mrs.
Roosevelt circle in a certain
movement OF the type which al
ways appeals to the First tady's
warm, enthusiastic heart.
She was sent to certain govern
nent officials with whom she tried
% promote her program.
Then a certain radical group
got onto the young weman's trail
and began to ask a lot of en-
oarrassing questions about a visit
10 Germany and her friendship
with high Nazi officials and pro-
Nazis in the United States.
Recent reports say the ques-
tons are now being asked out
oud at public meetings at which
she speaks.
SO there's some quiet chuckling
here and the program, if it ever
had a chance OF official support,
has gone blooey. Mrs. Roosevelt
and her friends, obviously, would
as soon sit on a red hot stove as
sponsor anyone who was working
for Herr Hitler. .
