MANY RACESFOR
SENATE HONORS
Thirty-Three States Will Elect
Members of Senior Legis-
lative Body.
NINE NEW FACES SURE
Will Cut Republican Majority if
North Dakota Elects
Independent.

| -
/ Thirty two states will elect "a U. S.
| senators Nov. 2. Alabama picks two,
/ because of Bankhead's death. There
| are sure to be nine other new faces in
| the senate-from Ohio, Illinois, Arkan-
sas, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana,
North Dakota, Oklahoma and South
| Dakota.
The present senate is republican by
| three majority. OF the 33 places to be
filled, IT are now democratic and 16
republican. Bankhead's successor will
certainly be a democrat as there is no
opposition.
An independent will replace a repub-
lican from North Dakota, where DR..
E. F. Ladd is certain of election. He
defeated Gronna for the republican
nomination, but is a non-partisan
Lacquer.
Wisconsin has a three cornered fight
with James Thompson. who almost de-
feated Lenroot for the republican nomi-
nation, now running independent, with
non-partisan league and Lafollette sup
port. There are independent farmer-la-
Dor candidates also in Nevada, New
York, South Dakota and Washington.
These include two women. Miss Anne
Martin, noted militant suffraget, in
Nevada, and Miss Rose SchneidarTnan,
prominent labor leader, in New York.
The farmer labor elements have en-
dorsed the democratic candidates in
Idaho and Colorado. Senator Thomas
of Colorado. did not seek reelection
in the primary, but has now entered
the ring as an independent, anti-farm-
erlabor candidate.
