fusion m other parts of the world.
We haven’t political parties to-
day as they were understood at on*
time in the history of this country.
We have what might be called po-
litical organizations carrying the
names of ancient political parties.
In other words, the political par-
ties have a name to live but they
are dead.
The reason they are in this con-
dition is because they have aban-
doned great fundamental principles
of government, and doctrines of the
Constitution. They abandoned
them hoping that they might sur-
render principles for policies.
You ain’t build a great party on
a policy; it must be builded on a
principle.

There was a man out in Long
Island a week or so ago who took
a horse arotind to a chap that run*
a riding academy and he offered to
sell the animal at a bargain.
“What’s wrong with it?** asked
the riding master. “Why, nothing,”
said the man with the horse. “It’s
really a fine animal for riding or
driving. It's gentle, has lots of
spirit and good staying power"
The riding master asked the man
why he wanted to sell it. ‘'Well,'
he said, “my wife now has a baby
and since she has the baby she kas
no time to take care of the horse.*'
There were folk who criticized that
man forgetting that it’s a nice thing
to be kind to animals and see they
fall into good hands.
