Show NEV BERRY AND DEFLATION H' I As Tho Standard-Examiner baa said. mi others are Baying: Newhcrrylstn must go. . Anal.v7.inr; the results of the election.! r ' Mark Sullivan who forecast Harding's ; ;y i lection In 1920 and (on told the read BJj ilon in 1922. makes this comment: -T."One of the early results of the elec-Hon elec-Hon will be an effort by the Repub licans to lock the door after the horse Rfl hr Rono by achieving the organization M Jj ind leadership which they have lack-agm lack-agm -ed. There will soon be a formal ef-fort ef-fort by the IU-publicans to try to re lleve Senator Lodge of some of his of- Iiicial functions, to mako wholesale hanges In the membership of the SJjJj fleering and other committees, and to tnJW overhaul and patch up altogether the thing that goes by the name of Republican Repub-lican leadership, but Is not leadership I at all. "Another probable result will be the resignation of Newberry. In all probability, prob-ability, he must make the choice be tween getting out ana oeiug put out. The changed membership of the new senate is such that it could readily M voto to expel him Somo of tho con- M servatlve Republicans who stood by .Newberry and voted for him think he ought to have taken the opportunity for a more graceful retirement several sev-eral months ago, immeditcly after he -zot his vindication That would have safed much embarrassment to some of .thoso who voted for him" The Republican majority in the Ben-ate Ben-ate should lose no lime In lnvitinr; Newberry to escape further embarrassment embar-rassment by getting suddenly ill and being compelled, owing to his physical .Omenta, to retire. The people do not want, and will not have, Newberry Ism. Mark Sullivan further sees in the election an unrest, in this nation which lias taken possession of the farmers. He says: "Even with the plain results of the lection before our eyes, the eountrv I HH generally fails to see the tiling ih.it 1 i was the chl f i-ni: ..: tin- radical part of the result, Even more conspicuously conspicuous-ly do they fail to see what it portends for 1924. Eeeaure the south is contented con-tented with cotton at 24 conls a pound, y and because the manufacturing e.v;. r prosperous, with everybody employed at rising wages, these two parts of the country have not opened their eyes to what is happening in the agricultural west and what is rapidly crystallising as the main issue lor 1924.
