issues should be debated, legislated.
administered, and amended by a
frank lineup of Liberals VS.. Con-
servatives, not by the hodge-p -podge
set-up that both major parties have
represented for years.
But instead of reading the Con-
servative wing out of the Democra-
tic party, Mr.. Roosevelt may be
"purging" himself out of that par
ty. He may follow the same course
that his cousin, Republican Theo-
dore Roosevelt, followed 26 years
ago. Readers will recall that "Ted-
dy", unable TO name the candidate
of the Republican party in 1912.
put together third party with
himself as the standard-bearer He
took millions of votes away from
the regular" Republican candidate.
AS a result, Democrat Woodrow
Wilson easily rode into the White
House with only 40 per cent of the
popular vote.
New Deal to be Third Party?
Thus far the 1888 "party purge"
has back fired. Consequently, Mr.
Roosevelt may not be able to con-
troll the Democratic Convention in
1910. If the President seeks a third
term himself, or if he insists on
naming his successor, there is a
strong possibility that Garner, Har-
rison, and others of the conservative
faction can stop him. In this event,
the New Deal group might split
off from the regular Democrats
and run Franklin D. Roosevelt as
a third party candidate.
The Conservatives chance of get
ting into the saddle in 1910 could
then be assured through coalition
Democratic Senator George OF
Georgia and Republican Senator
Davis of Pennsylvania speak the
same language. 1t is foolish for
such men to oppose each other
while a combination of the old-age
pensioners and "reliefers' squeeze
in between them.
Coalition Could Win Easily
My belief therefore, is that the
Republicans should not hold their
1910 convention until the Demo-
cratic convention is over. If there
is a split between the New DeaI
and Conservative wings of the
Democratic party, the Republicans
at their convention, should nom
mate the same candidate that the
Conservative Democrats have chos-
en-. Then we could have an honest
vote along Liberal Conservative
lines This is the only way we car
clean up the present mess.

Germ at Washington would have
been a big boon to the South. The
plain unvarnished truth, however,
is that the South is now no longer
the nations ''No. l Economic Prob
lem.
In the last decade, Dixie has
thrown off her economic shackles.
She is today the fastest-groWing
section, both in business and in
population, of the United States.
Her twin handcuffs-the lack OF
industry and over emphasis on
cotton-have been unlocked. AS a
result the South is growing by
leaps and bounds. There are linn
itless opportunities today in every
state from Virginia to California.
Groundwork For New Coup
President Roosevelt and his ad-
viSorS know this as we'll as I do.
BY their sudden emphasis on the
Southern problem, they are drag
ging the proverbial 'red-herring
across the trail. Actually, the snap
ping of the spotlight on the South
is part of President Roosevelts S
celebrated purge. 1t is the ground
work for the shifting of the ill
fed, ill-housed, and ill-clothed
voters Of the South from the old
line Democratic party to the stream
line New Deal party.
Readers will recall that the in
crease in President RooSevelt's plu-
rality in 1896 over 1882 was due in
part to the switching of the Negro
vote of the northern states from
the COP to the Democratic ranks
Now the New Deal strategists hope
they can perform a similar feat
of magic by weaving the vote of
the white lower classes away from
the George Garner Harrison Smith
Democratic faction.
Purge May Give New Lineup

STUDENTS EARN $249,94O
DURING COLLEGE YEAR

Students at Washington State Col
lege earn total of S249,940 during
the nine-month college year, it was
revealed today in survey made by
Professor N. J. Aiken, director of the
placement bureau. Sixteen hundred
and sixty eight students, slightly more
than 43 " per cent of the enrolment
earn part or all their college expens
es, with an average of $149.25 pei
student for the year.
Despite the number of students who
have found jobs, the college admin
tration does not recommend that new
students come to college without en-
ough money to pay all their expenses
during the first college year. Most Of
the jobs have waiting lists and it is
usually necessary for a student to be
OH the campus at least year to OBJ
tain work enough to enable him to
meet substantial part of his expan.
ses.
Most employers prefer to hire then
employees through personal inter
views. With the exception of N.Y.A.
jobs, for which students are recon-
mended by their high school princi-
pals and superintendent and which
are granted subject to Federal regu-
lations, no promises of employment
can be made by the college in adj
vance of enrolment.
A. study of the student employment
survey reveals 3O7 N.Y.A. students
earn $41,48O, an average of $125.44
per student. Of the remaining 1851
employed students (not N.YA.), 927
men earn $148,557 and 434 women
account for $59,S03, for total of
$208,360 for both men and women
Campus jobs such as clerical help,
laboratory assistants, librarians, wait
ers, mattresses and janitors provide
1895 students with work valued at
$166,451. Two hundred and twelve
students find jobs in the Pullman bus
mess district and earn $33,271 as
clerical workers, salespeople and no.
tel and cafe assistants Housework
and garden work helps 113 students
to earn $S,63S.
Mere lists of figures, however, fail
to tell the whole story. The survey
shows that college students work at
a great variety of jobs to help finance
their Quotations. Laundry agents,

CHEST UNITS ASK
HIGHER BUDGETS
Agencies Told Funds Must
Depend on Washington's
Spirit of Giving.

Urgent requests for increases in the
budgets Of charitable and welfare
agencies during the coming year must
be ignored unless the public gives the
Community Chest much greater sup
port IN the campaign ahead, 1t was
announced today.
During the last week, Representa-
tives Of II agencies have appeared
before the Budget Committee of the
Chest, Chairman J. s. Gorrell ex-
planned, and eight Of these requested
increases for 1889. He added:
only If Washington's giving habits
could be spurred to a higher level
could even a fractional increase in
budgets Of the Chest agencies be con-
sidered for the coming year."
Forced TO Deny Aid.
The Children's Protective Associ-
alton, its representatives reported,
stretched its funds to give preventive
and protective service to SGT children
during the past year. Yet this agency
Is constantly required, for lack Of staff
and OF money for board. to refuse
care to other children equally in need
During the year 81 girls have been
cared for at the Florence Crittenton
Home. Members Of the homes board
appearing before the Chest commit
tee stressed the need for additional
funds with which to meet the salaries
Of teachers giving the girls specialized
training, now that the Board Of Edu-
cation no longer provides such funds.
The Family Service Association re-
ported that Of more than 1900 fam
lilies who applied for help, 651 required
service and relief over an extended
period. The organization needs $50, 900
more to help other families in des-
perate need.
More Asked for Rehabilitation.
The Bureau of Rehabilitation
wanted $4,000 additional to re-
establish released prisoners in their
communities. The Catholic Charities
asked $4,000 more to help distressed
families. The Episcopal Home for
Children, with an allowance Of only
$13 year for each child's clothing,
asked 5000 additional for that purpose
and $1,000 for food for the Is chill
dren in the home.
Other organizations made similar
appeals.
For the next five weeks conferences
with the "a member agencies will con-
tinue, as Chest officials make up .
