PO|NDEXTER SAYS
REPUBLICANS WILL
GAIN Z MEMBERS

WASHINGTON, Sept. 4-Senator
Miles L. Poindexter, chairman of the
Republican senatorial committee, is
sued a statement today upon his re-
turn to Washington from a western
tour declaring that the Republican ma
jority after the November election

Excellent prospects, he added, existed
for its increase by a total of seven.
Republican candidates for senator in
Idaho and Colorado, he predicted, would
win. while in Arizona, California, Ne
vada, Oregon and Kentucky, the COM
mittee also expected success.
The people realize that the election
of a senator in any one state may de-
termine possibly the control of the SEN
ate" Senator Poindexter said. "and
they are so indignant at the conduct
of the present administration, whose
policies Governor Cox has pledged him =
self to follow, that there viii be no
douht about the return of a Republican
senate.
Il have made a very careful exami-
nation OF conditions in all of the states
where the senatorial election is at all
uncertain. and upon this feel satisfied
that the Republicans will retain all of
the states they now hold and gair
several from the Democrats"
