We, the People
Republican Reeeivership Most Important Duty Be.
fore Supporters of Landon

. Red" clamor, the attack upon the
social security act and the attempt t.
stimulate . tax rebellion against the
Federal revenue.
The New Dealers, In receiving their
mandate, have pledged themselves to
avoid vindictiveness, but for this
pledge to be realized the Republicans
must get rid Of the rank amateurs, the
Advertising gag men, the crackpcts
and smart alecks who seemed to In.
spire 20 many Of Gov. Landon's later
efforts.
The least the Republican National
Committee can do is to let the prac-
tical politicians resume charge and
drive out the shortchansers from their
political temple.
The 1896 campaign demonstrated,
what my writings have maintained
for i've years, that the Republican
party is the most valuable piece OF
political property lying around loose.
The trouble Is that it Is lying
around loose. and contend that it Is
dangerous to allow this property to
be hired out on q "driv-ur-self' basis
TO any group which Is prepared TO put
up the money for a ro.lsing political
uproar.
So I submit that the public inter-
est requires that the present opera
tors OF the Republican party be re-
moved from the drivers seat. This
includes LAndonites, Hooverites and
old ruardsnnen alike
Then the way will be clear for q
receivership Of the conservative Do
htical forces OF the country.
Senator Vandenberg of Michigan
an honest, forceful and convinced
conserbative-might well assume the
leadership for this purpose, with the
aid of men like Charles McNary of
Oregon and James Wadsworth Of New
York.
The receivership and reorganization
OF the opposition. along conservative
lines, seems to me to be the most i'm
portant task before the minority be-
tween now and the new year. The
New Deal majority cannot function
effectively without Q better and more
intelligent opposition than it has faced
for the last year Of catch-as-catch-can
campaigning.

been added to by getting ac-
ton. Towering among them Is Mai.
George L. Berry, creator Of the In.
dustrial Labor Council and the Presi-
dents co-ordinator for industrial re-
covery.
As labor becomes politically articu-
late for the first time In American
history, new strands Of power are
gathered In the pudgy Est Of Maj.
Berry. Catching step with his old
friend, John L. Lewis, he gets q salute
from the disaffected labor rank and
file; as president Of the powerful
Printing Pressmens Union, he Is still
in accord with traditional labor lead
ership. He has burned no bridges,
but he Is out in front in the new labor
drive launched by the depression
years.
Currently, it is announced that his
Industrial Labor Council will assem-
BILE in a White House conference, be-
fore Congress opens. and that it will
press for amplifcation and tightening
of maximum wage and minimum hour
standards.
There is nothing starry-eyed about
Maj. Berry, surviving, with enhanced
influence, the quadrennisl shifting and
sitting. He is stocky and blocky. with
his thinning black hair carefully CO.
ordinated over his round, celtic fore
head, with deep-set, alert brown eyes,
easy movements, soft voice and a
manner Of reserve and pleasant
decorum.
The general effect Is more big busi-
ness than labor or politics, and that
Is just what Maj. Berry should regis
ter in person. He has a 30,000-acre
farm in TENNESSEE dividend-paying
farm; quarry. one Of the biggest
label plants in America, and he Is a
banker. He goes in for scientific
farming, raising forage crops and re-
| newing the soil with crop rotation,
farming with tractors and other mod
ern farm implements. He has 800
Hereford COWS and each year sells
about 400 200-pound pigs.
At the age Of he was a barefooted
orphan boy, working as printers devil
for the Jackson CMiss.) News, sleep
ing in the back room. While he was
still a lad he won prize fight with
purse suflcient 10 take him on a
trip to the Pacific Coast. In Nevada
he was hard-rock prospector, stalking
claims and digging prospect holes.
He went to San Francisco, working
for the Sunset Magazine. published
by the Southern Pacific Railroad, and.
at the age Of % became pressman.
He attended the union convention in
New York as q delegate. He rose
rapidly to the presidency Of the Or
ganization, which ONCE he has held
since 1907.
In the war he was an oficer Of the
Engineering Corps. On account Of
his standing as a labor leader he was
appointed by President Wilson as a
member of the American Commission
to Negotiate Peace.
George L. Berry did not learn to
read or write until he was Is years
old BY the time he started engaging
in labor union debates he had fluent
mastery Of written and spoken English.
He supported John w. Davis for the
presidency in 1924.

Administration will have to follow II
It obeys the mandate Of this political
tidal wave.
One thing can now be stated freely
and without suspicion Of partisanship.
A receivership for the Republican

duty before the minority which voted

ownership and control are utterly dis

enterprise would be permitted to hold
the reins Of power in q great human

The Republican party is still too
great a part Of our public life to be
allowed to drift like . water logged
derelict across the course Of the
American people.
There Is room in the country for .
real conservative party, to give ex-
preston to the very large body Of con-
servative opinion throughout the Ma

the task Of responsible Republican
leadership.

 Bridge is McKenney's < life. He eats, sleeps and breathes bridge. Recognized as the moving spirit of the American Bridge league, he di- rects' all the major tournaments held under the sanction of this body. ~
 As secretary of the league he att tends its big tournaments, and if there's a scintillatingly brilliant bit of play or bidding, you read about it in The Waterbury Democrat shortly after it happens.
 McKenney is in touch with the game everywhere. With offices in New York, Cleveland and Los Ar- geles, and personal connections in every state, he is the only truly national bridge reported in the business. Tn chairmaning the na- tional laws and rules committee, McKenney was primarily respon- sible for the code of laws govern ing duplicate bridge play in the United States.
 McKenney's friends are the greats of the bridge world. (He's one himself, of course.) But this writer has never lost his ability to produce a newsy, accurate report of any major happening in the game. His articles are read, understood and enjoyed in the fanciest clubs of the large cities, in the smallest hamletS

Some>of them even insist he can list every one of the millions of bridge hands he must have held.
 McKenney has no system of his own Go defend. Consequently he's right on the spot with news of any development on the spot with news of any development in contract bidding and play. If it's worth writ ing about, he knows what 1t will mean to his bridge fan followers.
 Just now McKenney is keeping abreast with a great series of six articles explaining the new and sensational TINT (Tierney No Trump system" developed by Ed gar F. Tierney, of Springfield, Mass. Its opponents call it the "short cut to contract" and that just about sums it up.
 Cool weather is here again, bringing the bridge playing season. If you're a real fan you'll want to understand this new TINT Sys- temp that everyone's talking about. If you're a beginner or 8 player not very far along the road to expert ness, you can't afford not to under stand 1t.

there was no withdrawal of demo- cratic candidates here to get them out of the way of radical party con- testants so that there could be g straight-away fight between repub- lican and radical or liberal points oi view.
 More Friendly To President The farmer-labor progressive fed eration here is divided but mostly friendly to MT. Roosevelt. It is moi t..-s progressive party headed by the La F'ollettes although 1t includes some of their following. The fed eration consists of an ainalgan1a- ton of progressives, socialists, the Wisconsin Federation of Labor, the Workers Alliance, the Farmers Equity Union, the Wisconsin Milk Pool and the Farm Holiday aSsocia- ton. The Workers Alliance is made up of works progress administration laborers. The lnnik pool is a large producers cooperative. It organ ized the 1888 milk strike.
 Governor La Toilette, up for re- election this year, refused to join the federation, asserting that its production-for-use plank was vague A more convincing explanation giv- en me in Madison was that La Fol- lette was afraid of the radical pro- dlction- -for-use issue because il might alienate farm voters whc otherwise would support him. La Follette's platform does not contain a production-for-use plank. The plan would involve taking over idle factories for employment of idle citizens, the products to be dis tributed to the needy.

HUNTING SEASON
 OPENS TOMORROW
Thousands of SpOrtsmerl Await Signal : Prospects
 Slightly Encouraging

Hartford, Oct. 19-A survey of prospects for Connecticut's thous- ands of sportsmen, poised for the opening of upland game seasons to- morrow, offers little encouragement for larger than usual bags this season, Superintendent of Fisheries and Game Arthur L. Clark an nounced today.
 Despite an unusually severe win- ter there was high survival of hen pheasants last sprmg. This wild stock was reinforced with Q release of nearly $500 adult birds before the breeding season.
 Whether sizeable pheasant broods resulted depends largely upon the abnormal weather {. during the breeding season which ranged from floods to prolonged drouth. Flocks of pheasants are reported in some localities and not a bird in others.
 sRuffed grouse prospects are omi- nous. These birds are subject to periodic cycles of scarcity and plen- tttude. Connecticut apparently saw a peak in the grouse supply last year and theer are now indications that we may have entered upon the period of grouse depression.
 "Quail supplies appear to be nor maj but sportsmen ore urged to re- frain from shooting into small coy- eys thin fall. The board has em- parked upon program to introduce hardy strain of pure northen bob whites. Pending completion of this program, the cooperation of sports men in limiting the quail is sought Supt. Clark stated.
 Open seasons announced in cir ctlar issued: by the board are pheasants, grouse, quail and gray squirrils, Oct. 4O-Nov. g, inclusive, Woodcock, Oct. 2O- Nov. 20, inclusive RaccoOns, Oct. 21-Dec. 31, inclu- sive.. Rabbits and hares, Nov. 2-Dec 3i, inclusive.
