. MOVE GROWING FOR REALIGNMENT Prohibitionists Soon to An- nounce Militant Organiza- tion Program. B the Associated Press, CHICAGO, November 6.—Plans for political party realignments blossomed on three Midwestern fronts today in the wake of the presidential election. Asserting at Chicago that the “Re- publican party is dead” and that the Democratic victory had put “the liquor tnterests in the saddle for four years . more,” Edward E. Blake, the Prohibi- tion party’s national chairman, de- lared yesterday: N n’:w kind of political party is needed which will be a party of the people.” He said the Prohibitionists soon would announce a “complete program of national administration of govern- ment, accompanied by & militant or- ganization program.” At Milwaukee, Roland Steinle, de- feated Republican candidate for Lieutenant Governor of Wisconsin, proposed a State “liberal” party of Republicans, Democrats and “Anti- La Follette Progressives,” aimed against what he called “the radicalism that is sponsored by the La Follette group.” Declaring he agreed organized oppo- sition to the La Follette family- dominated prograssive group was de- sirable, Arthur W. Lueck, defeated Democratic candidate for Governor, added, however: “The Democratic party is the liberal party and the dominant party and I see no reason why the Democratic party should not be the one selected Jor the purpose.” At Chicago, Clarence Senior, national executive sccretary of the Socialist party, expressed hope that the Demo- cratic national landslide would bring about formation of a Farmer-Labor party “on a Nation-wide scale.” CONFESSION ALLEGED BS the Associated Press.

BY the Assoclated Press, ‘The prospect of a revamped cabi- net loomed large in the Washington picture today, but none could say with authority how many depart- mental heads may go or who will take their places. President Roosevelt has gjven no hint as to what cabinet changes he may make, and, in the absence of official word, rumors flew thick and fast. In general, they pointed only to the widely-held conclusion that, following the precedent of previous Chief Ex- ecutives, Mr, Roosevelt would have several new faces around the cabinet conference table when his second administration swings into action. Secretaries Hull, Morgenthau and Wallace were expected by most to retain their present jobs. Uncer- tainty as to the other cabinet posi- tions prevailed, however, and reports regarding them criss-crossed and con- flicted. Roper and Swanson Mentioned. Some said Secretary of Commerce Roper and Secretary of Navy Swan- son would drop out, along with Postmaster General Farley. There was nothing tangible to support this speculation, and the departmental heads themselves remained silent. Farley returned to the cabinet to- day after a leave of absence to com- mand the Democratic campaign forces. He has said he would finish his pres- ent term, but declined comment on reports he either would seek a posi- tion in private business in the next few months or would leave the cabinet in 1938 to run for Governor of New | York. Speculation also spotlighted the question of whether Secretary of Labor Perkins and Secretary of Ine terior Ickes will remain, with dif- PAINTIN | Before you make any de- cision about painting to be done, get our LOW estimates FIRST. 20 years of Satis- factory Service.

At the Justice Department friends of Attorney General Cummings pre- dicted he would be reappointed unless he should decide to return to private law practice. Outside the cabinet some 30 major New Deal posts remain to be filled as the President returns to his admine istrative tasks. Chief among these are Undersecre- tary of State, controller general, di- commissioners, one Social Security Board member, one Federsl Reserve Board member, Ambassador to Russia, Minister to Denmark and high com- missioner to the Philippines. “ALL QUIET” REMAINS GRIPPING FILM FARE Revival of Powerful War Pic- ture Is Presented at Little. i ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT” has worn well.
