RADICAL THIRD
PARTYFEARED
Administration Having
Hard Time Satisfying
Everybody
(Special To The Prewi-Maoonian)
WASHINGTON, August 7.-Now
that the Democratic Senators and
Representatives have had a little
time to examine the President's
tax-the-rich proposal in all of its
aspects, their iaclination is to rush
some sort of a new tax bill through
both Houses. The indication is
that it will be just that "some sort
of a bill."
The leaders on both sides of the
Capitol have no idea of making
such a comprehensive revision of
the estate, inheritance and income
tax laws as would be necessary if
the purpose was to raise enough
money to meet the budget deficit.
About the best that could be ex
pected from the drafts prepared
by the Committee on Ways and
Means would be enough additional
revenue to take care of about one
month's running expenses of the
Federal Government. It will, how
ever, be something which can be
pointed to in the coming political
campaign as an earnest effort of
the party's desire-to bring about a
more equitable distribution of
wealth, and this political effect is
what most of the boys on Capitol
Hill are chiefly concerned about.
It is certain that nothing which
Congress may do will go far enough
to satisfy either the LaFollette
Progressives, who have a plan for
increasing income taxes all the way
down the line, or the "share-the-wealth"
group, headed by Senator
Huev Lone. The followers of
these leaders, and several othe
less well organized radical elements
are again being taken seriously as
political figures in next year'?
Presidential election.
Still Third Prty Talk
Some observers here still insist
thlat a radical third party move
ment is shaping up. Discounting
the fact that politicians are in
clined to become jittery on the
slightest provocation, it is certain
that some of Mr. Roosevelt's fol
lowers are showing signs of fear
that such a radical movement will
make headway, because of the im
possibility of getting through both
Houses as sufficiently radical tax
reform measure to satisfy any con
siderable proportion of discontent
ed voters. Such a movement might
draw upon the surplus of votes
which the Democratic leaders hope
will be cast for Mr. Roosevelt next
year.
There is possibly even greater
menace in a swing away from the
Roosevelt Administration, by Con
servative Democratic leaders.
Washington is beginning to regard
it is a certainty that if Mr. Roose
velt is renominated, a Conservative
Democratic ticket will be put in
the field. Talk of candidates to
head such a ticket is a matter of
everv dav conversation. Former
W mf -'if
Governor Albert Ritchie of Mary
land, and Lewis W. Douglas of
Arizona, former Director of the
Budget, are names most often
heard.
All talk of a coalition party, coma,
bining Democrats with the Republi
cans, has ceased. Republicans and
Democratic Conservatives, how
ever, are in entire harmony in
efforts to bring about a situation
which would result in Mr. Roose
velt's defeat. They will do all they
can to encourage any radical move
ment which shows promise of de
veloping into a third party, and,
indeed, might help in getting a
fourth or even a fifth party
launched. Anything to split the
Roosevelt vote, is the political slo
gan of the Opposition.
G. O. P. Timber
Most of the talk about Republi
can candidates is in the nature of
trial balloons. Names are sug
gested and the suggestors put
their ears to the ground to listen
for the popular reaction. Just now
jhe man who is being thus pro
moted is Governor "Alf" Landon,
of Kansas, whose chief claim to
fame is that he has succeeded in
balancing the Kansas State budget.
Governor Landon is less well-known
nationally than several of the oth
ers who are talked about as Re
publican Presidential timber.
Col, Frank Knox, publisher of
The Chicago Daily News, seems to
have a strong personal following
which has grown up almost spon-

Among tne undercurrents oi po

and it may be more than that-
that business interests may be, er

Representatives f re-election and
to attempt to put "safe" men into
Congress in place of those whom
business distrusts. This would be
something of an innovation in a
national political campaign.
