t d Nx d _Libertyville Independent La*e County Independent -- Waukegan Weekly Sun ~__ An independent" women's political party is being formed. .A call has been sermt out by the Woman's Committee for Political Action to women of liberal thought all over--the{country to affiliate for the purpose of having a voice in the seleetion of liberal candidates for President and Vice--President of the United States. It already has received wide--spread and cordial responte. . _ Wel, you've got to hand it to the colonel: On the north side he had the decided drys working their heads off for him; and in.North Chicago and south side pre-- eincts he had a united front of the blindpiggers and boot-- leggers who even closed shop for the day to work for him and openly bragged that "they" were winning a big victory when the returns--came in. ~And when ANY can-- didate can bring both elements to his standard, well, you can't beat him and we haster to congratulate. the colonel on liis magnetie ways. Our gifly hope is that he isn't involved to the extent that he cantiot prosecute the booze violators with a vigor never before achieved. _ | «_ Its purposes are clearly stated in the call and in ge tenets to which the members are. asked to subscribe. It does not pretend to foster the interests of any par-- ticular presidential candidate, but rather to rally as many women voters as it can around a set of fundament-- als with a view to exerting an influence commensurate with strength in assuring the candidacy of one who measures up to their standards. _ § | f The fact that Lake County did not give him the ex-- pected majority is not in the least reflective because tlits--county has been the one wherein a battle ground 'eame as the result of the sensational trial over him some months ago. However, there is the cénsoling fact which the governor and his friends will have in the knowledge that the county of Lake outside of Zion went solidly for the governor. -- In other words the country districts in Lake County and Waukegan--as well ewere for Governor Small and had Zion been eliminated from the contest with their "one--man" vote, the reports from Lake Coun-- ty would have been different. However, the Zionites are American citizens and they can "plug" their votes if they wish to so it all just depends on who the overseer favors that gets'the fAinal assistanco from that quarter. + George lost for senator because Jhe didu't get the Noliva vote. Had he had that he would have been nom-- inated. Furthermore, had Zion not gone against Small he would have carried Lake County by a big vote. Zion saved Essington and Swift in Lake County; in the case of Col. Smith he didn't need Zion-- to win; 'And it is shown that Small and Carlstrom and Deneen didn't'neced Zion and did not need Lake County to become victors in the state, ' W eiize | in _ The platform is one* of the most concise political statements ever promulgated, following the lines laid down by the Council of Political Action. . The conven-- ¥ion is to be held in Washington May 8 to 11, and several women of national reputation participate. -- Delegates may be elected to the proposed 'third party convention to be held June 17 in St. Paul. :« : dage's persecution of Len Smaill was to RENOMINATE SMALL and DEFEAT BRUNDAGE, and that even in the three--cornered fight. ; ~+itliktee -- _ --_-- Am Englishman has invented_a moving picture ma-- ,e%mueh like a grandfathers clock.

The voters of Illinois have repudiated the chso.fl' Tribune and Brundgge and the McCormick interests no uncertain way. At the present time it looks as though both Brundage and McCormick have been de-- htedandCdm:;dDeneen will succeeed them in their respective positions.

However, because the case was one which, had it been raised in the pre--primary days would have been contorted by enemies of the administration. <It is said Courteny had to suffer and lapse over his per-- jod for calling up his trial for parole.
