Member Federal Reserve System TT. Hirschberg, Pres. PEO PLE ^ Political parties have been small close corporations of politician* who have vied to "sell” themselves to the public at election time. They were reasonably sure that if one corporation did not get the votes, the other would. But they are not so certain now. The people are no longer willing to have their voting limits fixed b y any "national committee.” They are more inter- 1 ested in problems than in parties, | and in cures U jyi in candidate*.
