By BYRON PRICE (Chief of Bureau, the Associated Press Washington) If outward appearances alone were considered, it certainly would be ap- propriate to conclude that’ the long- predicted realignment of political Parties was just around the corner. The utterances of public men are drawing a more distinct line between the conservative and liberal schools of political thought, and this line runs directly through both major parties, not between them. Mr. Roosevelt and his followers have committed themselves to policies which they hold to be in the interest of “the common people,” and which are thoroughly repugnant to the other wings of the Democratic party. The break is so distinct that Mr. Roosevelt himself speaks of those who oppose him as “the powers of greed,” and such eminent figures as Alfred E. Smith reply that the Roosevelt wing is bent on “communism.” Among the Republicans Mr. Borah charges that “selfish and sordid in- tersts” are seeking to control the party, and the wing about which he is talk- ing retorts with charges of “Borah radicalism.” It would be the easiest thing in the world, if only surface indications were trusted, to decide that both parties were breaking squarely in two, and that the respective conservatives and liberal segments of each would unite to form two new parties, conservative and liberal. Concessions Seen As a matter of fact, however, few Practical politicians expect any such development, : For one thing, the public statements of public men frequently go a great deal further than the same men are likely to go when faccd with the ac- tual possibilities of party disruption. Almost all political circles fully ex- pect that both Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Borah will make certain gestures to- ward the rightist groups before the campaign gets completely under way. On the other hand, it is common knowledge that both conservative Democrats and conservative Repub- ltcans are willing to make concessions to the leftists, Not that anyone looks for real har- mony in either camp. Both party high commands appear reconciled to the prospect of large-scale bolting ‘mong various groups of voters. But that is quite a different thing from complete party realignments. After all, the pull of party is very Strong. It was so strong among the Democrats in the 90's that, in spite ot the conservative bolt from Byran, the party went right on. In fact, by 1904, when Alton B, Parker was the nom- inee, it had reorganized on lines so different that it appeared more con- servative than the G. O. P. The same pull was so strong among the Republicans in the earlier decades lof this century that the Theodore Roosevelt liberal bolt in 1912 did not interfere with a reunion eight years later, leading to a dozen years of Re- | publican rule, Premature Talk Of course every year makes its own Political precedents, yet it is difficult for political oldtimers to see how either great party can be expected to give up its continuing identity in 1936. It is hard for them to visualize a situation where Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Borah would be in the same par- ty, and Mr. Smith and Mr. Hoover, for instance, in the other. In fact there is visible evidence to the contrary. Mr. Borah is attacking Mr. Roosevelt, and Mr. Smith says he expects to die “a Democrat.” Pre- sumably that means that even if he “takes a walk” with the Republicons this. year, he means to come back later to his empty chair at the Dem- ocratic fireside. The mere physical and mechanical difficulties of organizing a new party are far greater than anyone would suppose until he has pursued the ramifications of party glignment down into the wards and townships. Some members of the Liberty League thought a year ago that a truly “conservative” party, recruited from both old parties, could be or- ganized in 1936 to oppose Mr. Roose- velt’s re-election. They seldom men- tion such a possibility now. It has been a dream of the Farmer-Labor- ites for years to organize on a na- j tional basis as a truly “liberal” party, but not much has come of it. During all this time there has been much premature talk about burying the Republican and Democratic par- ties. So far as can be learned at this writing, neither has made any ap- pointment with the coroner. BiG BEND SPAN TALK IS REVIVED BY HOLT Grand Forks Man Believes Its Construction Would Be of Unestimated Value Grand Forks, N. D., Feb. 12.—()— Revival of the project to build a bridge across the Missouri river at the Big Bend near Garrison was advocated | here Wednesday by Henry Holt, who| recently resigned as assistant director | of the WPA. “It seems,” he said, “a real service could be performed by the WPA through federal allocation of money for the construction of this bridge. If built it will serve practically all of western North Dakota and complete @ federal project through that sec- tion.” The bridge project was first sub- mitted by the state highway commis- sion to the bureau of public roads in November of 1932. It was approved | by the secretary of agriculture a month | later. Plans for the structure have been completed and are on file in the bureau of public roads. Soundings and footings have been made and the cost was estimated at $43,090. Holt said he believed the approaches | have been acquired and the site is on | @ federal highway now served by a| ferry. “The necessity for the bridge is! proven,” he said, “by the fact that| three legislatures have appropriated money for surveys and soundings.” | Congressional authority for the cross- | ing was given in 1932. “Special allo-' cation for WPA funds will be neces- sary to construct the bridge,” Holt | continued, “but I know of no pro-; Ject in the state that will give greater service to so many people or furnish | more man labor for the money in- volved. I sincerely hope its com- pletion may be made possible for the benefit of the people living in that vast and fast growing area.” Seed, Feed Loan Bill Has House Approval) Washington, Feb. 12.—(#)—The} house Wednesday adopted a confer-| ence report on the $50,000,000 seed and | feed loan bill and sent the measure to the senate for final approval. The bill authorizes loans up to $500 to a/ farmer. The governrhent takes a first | lien on his crop. { seers ae { BIRTHS EXCEED DEATHS | St. Paul, Feb, 12—(#)—Births im!

Badly burned, Oberkirsch was taker. to a hospital. Henry P. McTigue, who were in the lobby, were injured when walls collapsed and showered them with debris, The explosion blew out all the doors and walls on the main floor and the entire front wall of the building caved in, Safe Raiders Scorn Anti-Burglar Device Minneapolis, Feb. 12.—(#)—In spite of tear gas released by an anti-burg- lar device, safe crackers slashed open @ safe in the Pittsburgh Coal com- pany Tuesday night and stole $835.36, $400 of which was in checks.

Wetzstein of Mandan to 100 days in the county jail and to pay @ fine of $110 and costs after Wetz- stein had pleaded guilty to a charge of engaging in the liquor traffic. STORIES IN“ STAMPS By I. S. Klein ORTRAITS of Abraham Lincoln appear on seven postage issues of the United States. An additfonai stamp. the $1 value of 1922-6, pic- tures the famous Lincoln Memorial in Washington. .That is quite a contrast to the 38 types of stamps issued for George Washington, or even the 25 issues for Benjamin Franklin. But tach of the Lincoln stamps is more or less of a memorial to the Civil War president. The first Lincoln stamp came out less than a year after his death, in 1866. Another was issued in 1869, and reissued in 1875. A third came out in 1870-1, and three years later another Lincoln stamp was printed. Then, after a 20- year lapse, a fifth Lincoln stamp was brought out In 1909, on the centennial o Lincoln's birth, a 2cent carmine stamp was produced in his honor, and then the regular issue of 1922- 26 carried Lincoln's portrait on the S-cent stamp, and the Lincoln’ Me- morial on the $1 value. The centennial stamp of 1909 is @ reproduction of the Lincoln head’ on the monu mental statue by Dantel Chester French, in the Lincoin Memorial building. | (Copyright, 1936, NEA Service, Ine.) U. 8.

Floyd B. Olson, interviewed in the hospital here where he is being treated for a stomach disorder, an- nounced Wednesday he plans “full steam” for the coming campaign for a United States senate seat. He will return to his office next Monday after six weeks in the hos- pital, starting with an exploratory operation, and plans, he said, a southern trip about March 1 to escape cold and “absorb sunshine.” The nature of his announced cam- paign for the Farmer-Labor nomina- tion for the senate had been in doubt, but Wednesday the governor said: “As far as I am concerned, this campaign is the same as any other and I am expecting plenty of fight. I’m not asking any favors from po- litical opponents or voters on the health score.” He added his stump campaign would probably be limited to a single swing around the state. Before ap- parent improvement of his condition, evidenced Wednesday by improved appetite, some members of his party had suggested the possibility of a “front porch campaign.” Governor Olson said he would be on hand for the state convention in St. Paul March 27 and 28. He was disinclined to favor convention in- dorsement of candidates.

Editor, Tribune: Have been reading comments from different readers of your valued paper. At times I have to express my crazy ideas on these subjects. The Triple A has been quite a subject of con- Sones. I feel it was the wrong syst of helping the farmer. In the first place I do not think that limiting production is what helps any one in our northwest. A surplus ship. We have been told it did but is| it so? ‘When the government put the AAA in power we were supposed to have; an enormous surplus. But when the elements caused no crop over the wheat growing part of the northwest in 1934 and before we got any mois- ture in the spring of 1935 every paper and observer was scared to death that if we didn’t get a crop the nation would starve to death. Now does it look as though there was much of a surplus or that we should control production? Let every- one raise all he can, What we need is controlled marketing. And it should be very specific that grain should be stored on the farm. If I am able to have 1,000 bushels of surplus wheat I am able to have bins whereby I can store that 1,000 bushels of wheat on my farm. And if one can have 10,000 bushels of surplus wheat he can afford facilities to store this amount. This system would also take care of several other expense bills the govern- ment has at the present time. Jim Jones would have 2,000 bushels of wheat on his farm—he would not need @ feed loan or a seed loan in a year when there was not a crop. If our farmers had some of their wheat on the farm from former years they would not have had to sell their pigs for 50 cents in 1934. And again, what the allotment did in my community and in many others was to “toil up” the exploiter. The real dirt farmer got very little out of the allotment. But the fellow who in 1929 could go out and buy a tractor and a piece of land, or maybe rent it, pays no taxes and in several cases not a $1,000 or $1,500 check for wheat al- lotment got the benefit. These are in most cases “not all”, who got the benefit of the AAA. If we had a system whereby we could raise all we wanted to and market only so much we would all have an equal chance, Respectfully, WALT M. STAIGLE. Editor's Note: The marketing license theory is an interesting one and has much support in this area but observers agree that a constitutional amend- ment would be necessary before such a law could be made effec- tive, 18 DIE IN STORM Venice, Feb. 12.—()—Eighteen per- sons were dead Wednesday as the re- Jersey watch factories contracted radium poisoning by moistening with their tongues bristles of brushes with which they painted watch faces. never caused anyone much of a hard-! sult of a storm which has swept the Adriatic for the last htree days.
