GE RIM ANS A RE WELL
PLEASED WITH THE
ELECTION OF HARDIN c

Berlin, Nov. A note of warning
against undue optimism in conse-
quence OF the democratic defeat in
the American elections Is to be found
In the complete range OF press COM
ment, although the editorial refer
ences in the German papers concur in
the attempt to find comfort in Scna-
tor Iiarding's victory, as presaging
early restoration OF normal condi-
tions between the United States and
Germany.
The pan-German editors all make
yitrlolic onslaughts on President VIII
son. who, among other things, is
charged with responsibility for the
hunger blockade and the irreconcil-
able postwar attitude of hostility to
Germany.
The Lokal AnZeiger says:
I'VE have got rid of Wilson. who in
the last analysis, was to blame for our
misfortune Mr.. Harding will play
politics and mix in world affairs only
so far as they concern American in
terests. The Zetung Mittag says
at would be premature 10 regard
the end of the Wilson era too optl-
mistlcally."
The Vossische Zeitung says;
ut IL not Hardlng's victory or Cox's
tcfeat. but the complete disavowal
OF Wilson. Germanys chief interest
turns on Mr. Hardngs campaign ut
terunces fayoring the quickest possible
rc-cstablishment OF peace time rela-
tons between Germany and the United
States
vorwaerts thinks 1t advisable TO
await President Harding's message
to congress for an Indication OF his
position toward the treaty, and his
attitude toward middle Europe.
Count Won Bcrnstorif, the former
German ambassador at Washington,
writing in the Acht Uhr Abendbatt
thinks that. in favoring the Hague
tribunal and Improvement OF the
league. Senator Harding has broken
away from the policy OF the complete
isolation OF America.
The Taeblatt says;
III today we shake hands In spirit
with prosident-elect Harding across
the sea, il Is because we see In him
man who can quickly bring us
peace with union and who has the
vision and tho desire for better league
OF nations"

date.
In his speech to the cheering crowd.
that gathered for his post election

historic coincidence, a crowd was
gathencd at the same hour on the
White House lawn in Washington. ac-
claiming the league. In presence OF
President Wilson.
Soon after his vacation trip, which
Is to end early In December, Mr..
Harding Is expected to take preimi-
nary steps towards consultation OF

AWAIT FURTHER
GAINS IN HOUSE
Senate Majority Held by
Republicans to Be SO to
81, Observers Think; the
House Majority Is Great.
est Ever by Any Party

New York, Nov. 5.-With the size
Of President-elect Harding's electoral
vote virtually settled at 404 out Of q
possible 53l, and the complexion OF
the new senate set down as SO Repub-
licans and 81 Democrats, Republican
leaders today awaited belated returns
on eight contests in six states to
fix the exact size Of the Republican
house majority.
Exclusive Of the eight undetermined
seats in the lower house, the Repub-
licans had 2S6 members to 1877 Demo-
Gratis and four other designations, a
plurality Of 149--the greatest ever
held by any party in the house. The
nearest approach to it was the 52nd
congress, when the Democrats had u
lead of 14S.
Republicans appeared to be assured
Of better than an even break on the
eight outstanding seats which would
give them a record party margin in
the house. The seats still in doubt
were the fourth Maryland district;
eighth Minnesota fifth Missouri.
18th, 21st and 23rd New York; first
North Dakota. and fifth West Vir-
ginia. A further Democratic upset,
appeared possible in the fourth Ten
nessee district, where w. II. Clouse,
Republican, was reported to have
forged slightly ahead Of Cordell Hull,
earlier reported elected.
The senate majority was settled
late last night when belated returns
from the mountain regions Of Ken
lucky gave the Republican candidate,
Richard p. Ernst, victory over Sem
ator Beckham. Democrat.
"Montanas four electoral votes fell
definitely into the Harding column
when returns from 1921 precincts
out of the total 1882, gave the Re-
publican candidate a lead Of 44.53O.
With North Dakota's five electoral
votes counted last night when Demo-
cratic leaders admitted they had given
up hope Of carrying the state. the
addition Of Montana brought the
Harding total up to the 404 mark.
Yesterdays count In Oklahoma as
one representative in the lower house

Robertson was an anti-suffragist prior
to the adoption Of the 10th amend

LAbOR'S STAND ON
POLITICAL ISSUES
Labor Chief Believes That
Futility of Separate Par
ty Action Was More Con-
vincingly Shown by Re-
suits of the Election

Washington, Nov. 5.-Samuel Comp
ers, president of the American FEEDER
alton of Labor, declared today in his
first statement on the outcome of
Tuesdays elections that every for

feel some deep regret because Of the
great plunge towards reaction"
But democracy will right itself
at the proper time" said Mr.. Comp
ers, and meanwhile the actual tab
ulation Of results in congress the
iaw.Taking body. shows a definite
and specified gain for all that makes
for progress and responds to the
nccds of our time"
Mr.. Gompers asserted that every
man in the house whose record Of
service was perfect has been re-elect-
ed"
The non-partisan political policy of
the labor federation. Mr.. Gompers
continued, is more completely justl-
fec than ever and the futility Of
separate party action more convinc-
ingly demonstrated.
Referring to the congressional cleo
ton Mr.. Gompers said incomplete
checking already showed that fifty
congressman who were inconsiderate
and hostile have been defeated.
This is one Of the most impress
i've features Of the entire election" /"
said he. Fifty time servers have been
beaten. Against these fifty the work.
ing people have elected from 55 to 60
men whose records show fair and
considerate service. This represents
clear gain for integrity in govern
ment," Mr.. Gompers claiming the

final counting would show more than
