In the Democratic Party, Senators Wagner and Bilbo are diametrically opposed in outlook and action, and similarly with Morse and Bricker in the Republican Party. The spread of totalitarianism, the danger of a third and atomic world war, the virus of religion and racial bigotry and persecution require a political instrument ,that will enable the people to meet jthese challenges. The Republican Party, controlled by reactionary Big j Business elements and isolationists, (arid the Democratic Party, dominated by Southern Tories, racists, and Big City machines, cannot serve as this (progressive instrument. These times demand that liberals in all walks of third life unite in a new, nation-wid- e arty that will challenge the unholy alliance of Reactionary Republicans and Southern Tory Democrats now 'dominating Congress. What the present Congress has done on price control, F.E.P.C., Wyatts housing program, the minimum wage bill, and the Case BUI is living proof a new party is needed. MR. BRADLEY CHALLENGES: I , n, ! Mr. and Mrs. Eldrid Larsen and little son Steven of Hyrum spent the past ten days renewing old acquaintances in the southern part of the state. They visited at Price, Huntington, and Salt Lake City. Mr. Larsen spent several years in the school system at HunJing-to- n before coming to Logan to chaUenge Mr. Davidson: teach. (1) To dem- onstrate that any country has made as much progress on the road to complete individual liberty and economic security as has been made in the United States under the two-parsystem; (2) to demonstrate that the successful formation and maintenance of a third party would result in greater individual liberty and eco- -' nomic security for aU of the people; (3) to explain the obvious inconsis-- 1 tency in his position in saying that each of the two major parties now has in its ranks Senators diametri-caU- y opposed in outlook and action and, at the same time, claiming that jthe Republican Party is controlled by reactionary elements and the Democratic Party dominated by Southern Tories. MR. DAVIDSON REPLIES: American progress is due to many factors not the two-parsystem. Mr. Bradleys Republican Party was itself a third party against the Whigs and Democrats. As such it helped preserve the Union and abolish slavery. Even Roosevelt could not reform his party. The last Democratic Congress elected with him has demonstrated its reactionary character. Talmadges, Mays, Hauges continue as Democratic i chieftains. The Republican Party 'didnt invite WUlkie, 1940 candidate, to its 1944 convention. Big Business, isolationists thought him too progressive. The two parties represent reaction and privilege. America needs a new party with a positive liberal program for freedom with security for all. ty Mr. and Mrs. A. D. Allen and daughters Gloy and Merle are enjoying a ten day vacation.

The successful establishment of a third party would result in the control often resting with a minority and party responsibility would thus be divided and impaired. The successful establishment of a third party would bring down on our heads the curse of the bloc system as it has flourished in the European parliaments. Party responsibility would be destroyed. Pressure groups would be built up as political and unconscionparties. able political trading would occur in the minority party. Politicians and parties would hide behind the cla- -. that it was the fault of some minorities that brought about the adoption of bad legislation. The American sy tem of government and our liberties would soon be lost. The American form of government has succeeded better than any other in preserving individual freedom and protecting sysminority rights. The tem is a basic and essential part of this form of government. It must be preserved. Sunday guests of Mr. and Floyd Nielsen were Mrs. Warren Taylor of Ogden.

DAVIDSON CHALLENGES: responsibility is im Real political possible because the major part: platforms are meaningless. Is it Will kie Republicanism or Taft Republicanism the citizen is voting for? A Roosevelt Democratic Party or a Rankin Party? The reactionary wing of both major parties work togethei. Tweedledum and Tweedledee afforo no opportunity for positive choice. This defeats the democratic process. Why not work toward a realignment of political forces that will bring clarity, honesty and genuine responsibility? Why not a third party of all liberals? This will force the ultraconservatives of both major partie to coalesce. The picture will be cleat voting will then be meaningful. MR. BRADLEY REPLIES: My opponent errs in condemning the system because he does not like the waj it works. Limiting ourselves to our present major political parties fixes the responsibility with certainty. The ' confusion of which Mr. Davidson speaks arises, insofar as it exists at all, from the fact that the PA..C. and its allies have captured the Democratic high command without subjugating the rank and file of the membership. No third party is needed to clear up this situation. The system definitely fixes responsibility; but a party in power, divided as the Democratic Party is, finds it impossible to accept such responsibility. The difficulty is not with the system but with the party. two-par- ty ' BB1IBHBHI R B WE MAKE OLD YOUR RADIO SIHG LIKE NEW Service Satisfaction Yes, we repair radios double-quic- k in but we smallest de- time never slight the tail.

One year later, on August 14, all the world will honor those who willingly gave their lives that theirs might live in peace. While J Day marked the end of the war, hundreds of thousands of veterans are still on active duty, finishing their job to see that war never lifts its head in the world. The nation honors all who contributed to success of the war against Japan, many who formerly fought against Germany.
