LINING UP FOR NEXT CAMPAIGN

The Republican senatorial campaign commit tee reorganized for the 1922 congressional cleo tions, has begun work under the direction of Senator Medill Mccormick, of Illinois, Senat- or Mccormick succeeds Senator Miles Pondex- ter, of Washington, who steered the committee through the last national campaign and Novem- Der elections, and whose work was largely re- sponsible for the heavy Republican gains made in the senate.
 Senator Mccormick is the best choice the Re- publican senators could have made for a leader of the committee. He belongs to prominent and very wealthy Chicago family and was cleo ted senator from Illinois, and prior to his house service having been a prominent member for two terms of the Illinois general assembly. Sen ater Mccormick is we'll qualified by training, experience, and ability to head the Republican senatorial campaign committee.
 In the 1922 campaign the Republican sena- torial campaign committee will work in close cooperation and complete harmony with the national Republican congressional committee, which is made up of house members, and which is headed by the astute and remarkable polit- ical manager, Representative Simeon D. Tess, of Ohio Representative Tess was the chief of this committee when the Republicans made great gains in the 1918 congressional campaign, and again last November when the house went overwhelmingly Republican.

It is indeed rare to find a man who is an expert, successful and extrod- inarily able political manager who is at the same time real scholar. It would be a good fo,, men like Representative Tess among the lead CTS of both parties.
 Senator Mccormick is a man like Represent tatlve Tess, for the Illinois senator is gradu- ate of Yale and is something of scholar him. self as well as ole of the most astute observers we have ill public life. Mccormick recently made tour of war-stricken Europe where he gained much first-hand information that will be of great value to the senate and the admins tration.
 In the 1922 congressional elections thirtv-two seats, 'or one-third of the senate membership, will be at stake. These seats are equally divid- ed among Democrats and Republicans Both parties will make tremendous efforts to hold the seats they already have and make gains.
