WALLACE THIRD PARTY TALK. UPSETS U.S. POLITICIANS

BY HARRY W. FRANTZ

(United, Press St ff Correspondent)

Washington, Aug. 22.-The possibility that Henry A. Wallace may head a "third party" movement in the 1948 Presidential campaign has caused some uneasiness in the camps of the regular Democratic and Republican parties, and has led to caution in making categorical claims concerning the election result.

It is not believed that Wallace and his followers have any prospect whatever of winning a national election, but in view of close Republican-versus-Democratic strength in- many states and cities, the appearance of a "third party" in even a few states and metropolitan centres could affect the net outcome of an election.

SIDE GLANCES

After a four-day honeymoon William Thomas Brown, Sydney radio technician, went home to his mother because she did not approve of his marriage.

Marle Rebecca Brown, barmaid, of Tat ersall's Hotel, Parramatta, told the story to Mr. Justice Edwords in the Divores Court recently.

The Browns were married in April, 1942.

After the four days' honeymoon and his return to his mother, Brown visited his wife at her mother's home, and lived with her periodical- lly for five months,
