The Two-Party System
(Cincinnati Enquirer)
Through the years, Am
erican political leaders have
sought to preserve the two
arty system, which on the
whole has been a signal
success. It insures a work
ing majority, and also in
sures an opposition when it
functions normally. The
chief problem in years past
has been to curb third-par
ty movements- To do this
many states have fixed strin
gent requirements for ad
mission to the ballot with
the status of a political par
ty
At the last election the
Communists lost their right
to a column on the ballot
in New York State, because
their total vote fell below
the modest figure of 50,000.
And in Florida the GOP
lost its place on the ballot,
failing to win 30 percent of
the total vote.
In New York the device
served its purpose by han
dicapping a third-party
movement for the future
In Florida, the same device
on a different scale defeat
ed its purpose by crowd
ing off the ballot one of the
two major parties.
The provisions of law
which exact so great a meas
ure of success for the con
tinuance of a political par
ty seem unsound. Florida
carried a practical princi
ple to an absurd point. It
may or may not be sound
strategy to hamper third
parties by this method.
There is much to be said
for letting them on the bal
lot, where they do less
harm than in agitation thru
other channels. But in any
event, there is no point in
a law which has the effect
of admitting only one polit
ical party to a satisfactory
position on the ballot.

The Doings Of
Kougarok Leona
Are Daily News
Numerous inquiries concerning
I the activities of Leona from the
Kougarok disclose the fact that
she has left the bed and board
of friends and taken up her abode
in the snow igloo on the ice of
j Bering Sea in front of Nome.
“Here" she told us ‘I can have
j peace and seal oil, and seal oil
in peace.”
It seems that steamheated ap
artments and oil burners nearly
wilted the little tundra flower
from the banks of the Noxade
paga. Friends would come home
to find all the doors and win
dows open and Leona stretched
out on the floor gasping like a
halibut on a hot deck.
“That's one great advantage to
burning frozen willows” she pant
ed, ‘you don’t suffer with the
heat.”
She took to throwing her sleep
ing bag in the cache, until one
night when a person unknown
whom she described as “a pal
