Republicans have field Of

made unsuccessful efforts TO have
their names removed from the

The feeling among those who are

over4layed a waiting game in the

situation is complicated by the contest
between Senators Hitchcock and I'M
derwood for choice as party leader,
coming from the Underwood support
ers. The party caucus has been
called for Ianuay as to elect a
leader and in the meantime Republic
cans and Democrats apparently are
