Party N D Begins Move Amid Third Party Talks
Reported discussions among party leaders from several states on extending the third party movement. Montana farmer laborite P J Wallace cites a secret farmers organization underpinning the new party. Officials say designation on state ballots unlikely to face obstacles due to prior recognition. Some observers doubt success of non partisan league efforts and expect continued function within the Republican party. The court adjourned after cross examination as witnesses described road and railway track conditions linked to a wreck near East Helena.
