REFORM PARTY. STOKES SAYS
People Have Shown ‘Old Guard’ Just How They Feel, He Writes.
BY THOMAS L. STOKES Times Special Writer FE WASHINGTON, Nov. 4 —“Thanks, - Mr. President—we’ll have more of the same.” : This was the message that swelled * ‘into a tumultuous roar across the country and broke against the quiet home beside the Hudson to place upon the sturdy shoulders of the . man sitting there a weight of responsibility seldom equalled. Borne into the White House the first time on a wave of resentment of a people crushed by depression, he has been more firmly settled * there on a mandate such as never before has been given a President _ running for re-election by a people moving back to prosperity. What will Mr. Roosevelt make of his opportunity and how will he go about it? That is the question that concerns the country today as it looks forward to the next four years.

The President accepted it and anewe nounced his determination to go ahead along lines laid out by the NRA and AAA, both killed by the Supreme Court, and along the lines of other reforms still standing in statutes which Congress enacted.

They stirred up a quiet revolt by —
ballot in 1932; out of it came a mild revolution by statute; they liked that and want it to go on. By their avalanche of ballots they threw back into the teeth of the Republican Party and its spokesmen the charges that Mr. Roosevelt was trying to become a dictator, was trying to wreck our form of government. They leave to him the method. They leave to him the question whether the Constitution might have to be changed. That's what makes his responsibility a great one. Old Traditions Crash
In thrusting Mr. Roosevelt back into the White House the masses of America cracked old traditions. Only a seer with foresight not human could forecast the eventual results of yesterday's election. In the first place, they smashed party lines and surged across those shadowy barriers in calling for a new order. Two results seem likely. One is that the Democratic Party is taking on a new form. It has shaken off its right-wing, conservative garments exemplified in such leaders as Al Smith, John W. Davis, and others who already have deserted it. The party has moved on far ahead of them.
G. 0. P. Must Reform
The President now can fashion his new party, and its backbone, as the election demonstrated, will be the same masses of city workers and farmers which Jefferson and Jackson led to victory after victory. No Jonger will he have to worry over compromises with the conservatives, except such as he sees justified. The second result is that the Republican Party, if it lives, must reform itself. It's a weak and frail elephant today. . The cry for reform, the revitalization, went up after 1932. The party selected as its standard-bearer a man it deemed of a sufficiently liberal viewpoint to attract the progressive element in the party. But he became encrusted with those who, to the people, represented not only the old order—exemplified, for instance, in Herbert Hoover—but also the leaders of big business who could not convince the people they really were concerned about their interests.
Concise Program Needed From this election, the Republican Party undoubtedly learned that it must have a concise program in the future, must really cast off its old leadership, and can not expect to get anywhere merely by stirring about in the ashes of old prejudices and local jealousies. How its leaders of liberal and moderate viewpoint really regard the party of today was demonstrated in the way such figures as Senators Borah and McNary and other Westerners crawled into their shell-holes and kept their mouths shut in order wo Fin the suffrage of those in their
