PROPOSED POLITICAL
PARTY MERGER
By ROBERT P. BELL
"Ami tlit* Republican and Demo
cratic political parties consolidated,
thereby .combining the two strongest
forces of progressive liberalism in the
United States.”
If you had read that in an An
derson or Grimm fairy tale, or heard
it at the end of a radio bedtime 1
story, you, no doubt, would just have
laughed it off. But suppose you
should awake some tine morning and
see it spread across the front page
of your favorite daily paper After
your first feeling of incredulity, what
would your reaction be? Wouldn't
you. figuratively speaking, accept the
magic chariot with its four bubbles
of air without question and be glad
of the opportunity to do so?
The truth us, that on the jiot-tno
far-distant horizon a consolidation of
America's two leading political par
ties is highly visible. Sound reason,
rather than a fairy tale, is at the
base of that statement.
For many years the Democratic
and Republican parties have been
growing fundamentally more and more
alike—even while bitterly contesting
each other for supremacy. Botft par
ties stand essentially for popular gov
■ eminent and there are millions of
men and women in each party who
have no substantial differences from
each other on grounds of principle.
| They are merely carrying on a sham
j battle after all cause of conflict has
j passed away, because of meaningless
j tradition and false symbols.
| With the growth in the Democrat
t if party of a large body of believers
in a tariff for the protection of home
industries the one vital party ground
has completely disappeared.
Then, too, the constructive liberals
of both parties are realizing more each
day that consolidation of tile two par
ties will be necessary to wage a per
manently victorious fight against the
rapidly increasing radical party. .V*
it is now. neither party has a sffffi-1
dent margin of safety to justify the
proper amount of co-ordination. Team !
work and unity have suffered immeas
urably because of the small issues that !
have inevitably cropped up in order
that the parties might remain op
posed. Lessened interest by the pub-1
lie at large lias been the result. |
Polities in America, heeds a great,
amount of stimulation. Only a com- i
paratively small pnrt of our papula -
tion have any interest at all in the!
machinery that enacts all our laws!
and elects all our public officers—-I
namely, our political parties. This
much-needed stimulation to awaken
the average American citizen to a
realization of his rights and duties as
an integral factor of the world's most
powerful nation must come through
a more clearly defined and a more defi- j
nitely organized system of party pol-!
itics than is in force today. The
people must have a truer knowledge
of the workings of their political sys
tems if they are to take the interest
in their party’s program that they
should take.
A country as large and as compre
hensive as the United States has ab
solute need of party government. It
is impossible for any country to run
without organization and the desired
organization is furnished by the po
litical parties. But one of Hie chief
disadvantages inherent In the pres
ent scheme of our party government
is that it is far from being honest
and sincere. For example, take the
formal party declarations in a group
of widely scattred states. By read
feathers, beaded buckskin and If*
mine tails enjoy their sports,
parade and camp In the Elk Pas*
tore for three days. Jim Brewster,
who is a paleface chief of the
Stoney tribe, is called Chief Moun
tain Lion by his Indian friends,
and has mneb to do with arrang
ing the programs for the parades
and the Pow Wow.
The daily parade of Indians and
old-timers, Including such local
celebrities as Tom Wilson, the first
white man who aaw Lake Louisa,
inf tin* declarations, say, of North
Carolina. California, New York, Ken
tucky. Indiana and Oklahoma, one
wJJ.l_fluiek.ll be cured of the idea that
the same party means the same thing
iif tlfose contrasted communities. j
Also, there are a large number of
i people in bot'.i the Democratic and
' Republican parties who call them
selves Democrats and Republicans,
but who in reality are neither, Many
Americans have sunk deep into the
quagmire of destructive radicalism •
o;hers are "on the fence", as the ex
pression goes, not knowing exactly
what they advocate and not having a
fair chance to find out.
We could, by the combining of the
two parties, form into a close union
the progressive liberals of earfi group
, and be assured of enough strength to
face the destructive radicals with
cofiflSTefice. Under such a reorgani
zation the question as to whether the
federal form of government estab
lished by the constitution should be
preserved and extended to meet new
: cede and to solve riew problems, or
whether it should be wholly or in
part? overturned or discarded, would
be answered. The advantage of this I
, plans for political education would j
be inestimable to the people individ- j
unify and to the nation as a whole.
In Congress at Washington and I
.in many of the states, party names |
have only the significance of the label
on an empty champagne bottle," said
Nicholas Murray Butter, president,of
Columbia University. "Today," he
continued, "t'lie division of office hold
ers. office seekers, and the voting
public into Republicans and Demo
crats means little or nothing except
struggle for public place and public,
authority.”
President Butler went on to say I
that the past fifteen or twenty years]
have seen the ending by mere lapse ■
. °f time and the uation’s development i
lof those controversies which were
once fundamental. The paramount
power of the nation. In* maintains.
, inis been effectively established and
lis now supported everywhere. The
. authority to make internal improve
ments and to administer in the inter
| est of the whole people the public do-
I main and its forest and mineral
I wealth is conceded,
"The time has come to move to
| " nrd higher ground,” said Butler
j "The overwhelming majority of Re
,l publicans and the overwhelming ma
jority of Democrats who are in sub
-11 stantial argeement on all fundamen
tals. should speedily find ways to take
t -mil Https as may be necessary to
, fl rn » a Democratic-Republican party
I (to revive a name that was in use in
\ ,l " s «>»»try a century ago) which
would represent the predominant lib
| cralfam of this country.”
t The consolidation of the two par
ities was also proposed by the late
j Frank A. Mutisey in an address be
| fore the American Bankers’ Associa
tion in October, 1022. He said :
"The price of good government in
a republic means a deep personal in
terest in your government. Many
changes are needed to arouse and sus
t tain such an interest and the most
! 1 important of these changes is the
■ I'.mnge in the reorganization of the
groups into organized parries that sig
nify what they stand for. If old
pnrties could meet the demands and
keep them it would be eaaier but
■ personally I don't believe they can
i deliver the goods, handicapped as they
are by the accumulated prejdicee of
k /
is one of the great features of the
?ow-Wow. Every brave and squaw
is decorated with more paint Uiaa
a modern flapper, and even • the
horses have crimson moons on
their sleek necks and withers. Las*
year one squaw who had ridden
miles with a papoose on her back,
had a red moon as big as a silver
dollar on each cheek. The parade
starts in Banff village and has its
finale in the courtyard of the Banff
Springs Hotel where the Indians
*re targets for many pale-face
cameras, and where they are form
ally reviewed by Pow-Wow officials
and given prises for excellence of
costume, etc. Their camp In the tin
Pasture has many picturesque tep
ees with flags flying in front of teem
—one the treaty flag given Chief
Peter Wesley by Queen Victoria—*
and is the scene of wild pony rac*
Ing, wrestling on horseback, buck-*
ing bronco exhibitions, bow-and
arrow contests in which wonderful
skill is shown and many other old
time Indian sports now seen only
in the Last Great West. When

time.
"The salvation of the present sys
tem,'' he continued, "would be a lib- j
j oral conservative party, strong enough
to hold the balance of power against
the radical forces."
Anol’aer reason for the almost im
mediate need for a change in the pre- 1
vailing political parties is the lack
adaisical manner with which most of
the our greet their.,
priveledge to join the voting throng
upon reaching their majority. They
show very little desire to accept the j
traditions of party standards as’
handed down to t'aem by their fath- {
ers and their grandfathers. They
become misfits and they lost* interest. I
These young men who should be j
grooming themselves for the high po- j
sitions of the future are forced away j
from their natural inheritance.
If we are to nave an increasingly i
good government we must do away
with the old traditions, not'because
they are old, but because the world
has outgrown them. We must re
' rganize along definite lines and we
must have a true and accepted dis
tinction between the conservative par
ty and the radical party.
