30 PARTY CHANCE SEEN IN REACTION La Follette Holds Demo- crats and Republicans to Be Anomalies. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, October 26—Assert- ing that “the country can't go on supporting anomalies,” Gov. Philip La Follette of Wisconsin predicted today that voters in the 1936 presi- dential election would throw their strength behind a third party in oppo- sition to “reactionary Republicans and Democrats.” “Unless the two major parties purge themselves of reaction,” he said, “a new third party will prove strong.” The 38-year-old Progressive party Governor, tanned from the Bermuda sun, prepared in his hotel room today to “do a little extemporaneous speak- ing” upstate next week. May Support Republicans, He said his personal presidential support would go to the Republicans if they nominate a candidate with a platform “saner and more progressive than the President’s,” but he said he thought it not improbable that “the Democrats might abandon reaction.” “The people are tired of supporting administrations that would permit such anomalies as hunger and packed warehouses, work to be done and wide- spread unemployment, and abundant crops that can't sell for enough to pay farm taxes,” he said.

Hundreds of men, women and chil- dren, 31 floats and 9 bands will participate in Washington's fifth an- nual Halloween parade next Thursday night, the Greater National Capital Committee, sponsors, said yesterday.

A marching unit of boys and girls who designed and made their own masks and costumes will represent the playgrounds division in the parade. Under the instruction of Richard Flesch, sculptor, children in the north- ern section of the city have been working for several weeks on their masks. Wearers of the three best de- signs will receive tickets to the mo- tion picture, “A Midsummer Night's Dream.” A symbolic figure wearing the double mask of comedy and trag- edy will lead the playgrounds march- ing unit.
