MOVE STARTED BY INSURGENT
GOP LEADERS
Retirement of 3 Senators Ends Progressive Surge | Of Many Years.
By PARKER LaMOORE United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Aug. 15.—Defeat of Senator Robert M. La Fellette in the Republican primary in Wisconsin, following retirement by the voters. of Senators Henrik Shipstead in Minnesota, and Burton K. Wheeler in Montana, marks the end of a groundswell of Midwestern progressivism which began soon after the dawn of the century. The movement had its inception as an insurgency within the Repub-
«lican party directed against a leadership dominated by Eastern finan-|
cial and industrial interests, Its leaders were the elder Bob La| Follette, Norris of Nebraska. Wall street was their particular target. Agrarian unrest, which linked Wall Street with manipulation of the grain markets in Minneapolis and Chicago, broadened the. base of the insurgency. Capture G. 0. P. Control A Socialist fusion’ in North Da-
kota enabled the . Non-partisan League to capture control of the Républican party there, and the same movement rose to power in Minnesota as the Farmer-Labor party
From ‘Wisconsin, Nebraska, North Dakota and Minnesota, the revolt overflowed into Iowa, South Dakota and Montana. By 1924 leaders of the farm belt rebellion felt sufficiently strong to launch a third party ticket, nominating as their presidential candidate the elder Mr. La Follette with Senator Wheeler as his run-ning-mate. After the failure of that venture the insurgency, which had become bi-partisan, operated as the hard core of the congressional farm bloc. However, its constantly widening objectives found it championing the cause of. public development of natural power resources, and similar projects. Merges With New Deal The original La Follette-Norris movement, continued to spearhead the drive for liberal and progressive
legislation until it merged its inter- |
ests with the Roosevelf New Deal!
when it gradually lost its identity. This western revolt in the main
