In 1917 and join the Navy, Mr.. Gill
returned after destroyer duty of

from the University of Wisconsin.
He came to Washington in 1923 as
business manager of the Washing

The Star on economic subjects. For
time he was business consultant.
When Senator Wagner's Federal
Sterilization Board was organized
in 1880, Mr.. Gill was appointed it's
economist and statistician. This
attempt to regulate construction and
unemployment was the first time
the Federal Government had taken
cognizance of depressions, Mr.. Gill
says.
Mr.. Gill, who has imperative eyes.

zon no imminent hope for industrial

sight, he says. An important re-
search project, now under way, seeks
answers to chronological changes
that may have created our present
unemployment load. Social re-
searches are probing rural and city
destitution
Mr.. Gill is convinced that the
American people want work pro-
gram" that the Government is in
this business to stay, that average
w. P. A. construction work now
compares favorably with average pri-
vately financed jobs. that the invest

no means given up hope of domi-
mating the Democratic party at
its 1910 national convention. II he
stays In the Democratic party, there
seems little real chance for a ma
tional third party movement Of
major Importance, La Guardia or
no La Guardia. If Franklin D.
Roosevelt, unable to bring about the
nomination of a Democratic candi-
date acceptable to himself, jumped
the reservation and sought to do
what his fifth cousin. Theodore
Roosevelt. sought In 1912, he would
have to head the new party him
self.
Mayor La Guardia can expect
very little at the hands of the
Democratic party. He has in the
past run for office as a Republican
as Socialist and as an independent,
but never as Democrat. After his
ostensible support of Gov. Lehman
IN the recent campaign, it is un-
likely he can expect anything at
the hands of the Republicans. A
third party of one kind or another
would be right down his alley.
There are those who maintain the
dynamic Mayor has plenty of am
bition and that his thoughts turn
not to Albany but to Washington.
Leaders Temperamental.
The drubbing that the third party
movements received in Wisconsin
and Minnesota in the recent elec-
tions, however, does not lead to
belief that new, liberal party will
get very far at the hands of the
voters in this country. Furthermore,
Mayor La Guardia will have q
difficult time persuading Gov. Philip
La Toilette of Wisconsin and Gov.
Benson of Minnesota to get in line
with him: liberal leaders are for
the most part as temperamental as
prima donnas.
Gov. La Toilette tried a new ma
tional third party movement last
spring, when he launched the Ma
tional Progressives OF America
Some of his Progressive friends at
home say he would have done bet
tre to concentrate on keeping the
Progressive party In power in Wis
consin instead of diffusing his ef-
forts. The National Progressives as
a national party have made little
progress so far, and the defeat Of
the Progressive candidates in Wis
consin last Tuesday has not helped
the movement a bit.
Licking to Farmer -Laborites.
The Farmer-Labor Party, not
withstanding the aid given its can
didates by New Deal Democrats, in
Guiding the President himself, took
as bad a licking as did the La Fol-
lette Progressives in Wisconsin. If
the Farmer-Labor Party is to sur
vive it will have to devote a great
deal of attention to getting back
