Entire Cabinet Out on
Road Buttonholing
the Voters
WILL LOSE 100 SEATS
This Seems Certain in the
House, But They Still
Claim Majority
Especial to The News.)

Washington, Oct. ia stand-off
in the senate, with the present repub-
lican majority of % not materially
affected in the house dog fights" in
90 per cent of the 435 congressional
districts with the republicans prob
ably emerging with control of the
chamber by anywhere from 25 to so
seats.
Disregarding the extravaganza
claims of part managers, made for
publicity purposes, the foregoing
represents the general consensus Of
'ouinion among Washington political
observers of both parties as to the
outcome of the congressional cleo
tions little more than three weeks
hence.
While neither John T. Adams,
chairman of the republican national
committee, nor Cordell Hull, chair
man of the democratic national COM
mittee, are yet issuing any predic-
tions on the election, it can be stat
ed both democratic and republican
Headers privately anticipate the next
congress vii be controlled by repub-
licans in numbers approximating
those given.
The present republican majority in
the house is 1859, the greatest in his
tory, and considered by party leaders
themselves as too big to be wieldly.
The republican campaign directors
are reconciled to meet to seeking this
majority cut down by well over 100
seats on November 7.
Even this, however, cannot be
rightly accounted republican loss,
according to republican spokesmen,
for scores of republicans are occupy
ing seats that are normally demo-
cratic.
Neither republican nor democratic
leaders privately expect the senate
rial lineup to be changed materially
ION November 7. Senators are to be
elected in "a states. Ten of these are
considered safely republican" as far
as the senatorships are concerned:
California, Indiana, Iowa, Maine,
Massachusetts, Minnesota, Pennsyl-
vania, Wisconsin, Vermont and
Washington.
Eight are similarly considered
safely democratic:" Arizona, Flor
ida. Georgia, Mississippi, Texas,
Tennessee, New Mexico and Virginia.
In the remaining sixteen states the
senatorial contests are keen, and it is
these that the real fights are to occur
next month.
The republican campaign managers
consider they have excellent chances
of eight senatorial seats now held by
democrats in these states: Missou-
ri. Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, Ohio,
Rhode Island, Utah and Wyoming.
Not to be outdone, the democratic
managers claim they have excellent
chances of unseating eight sitting re-
publican senators in the following
states:
Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland,
New Jersey, New York, North Da-
kota, West Virginia and Michigan.
Campaign plans for the next two
weeks call for heavy concentration
in Ohio, the home state of President
Harding, by both democrats and re-
publicans.
Democratic speakers of national
repute will be shot into Ohio in great
numbers for the purpose of Wrestling
political control from the republicans

New Brunswick, N. j., Oct. H.
Having obtained postponement of the
projected handing over Of the inquiry
into the murder of the Rev. Edward
Wheeler Hall, rector of the Episco-
pal Church of st. John the Evangel-
ist, and his choir leader, Mrs. Elean-
or Reinhardt Mills, to state authori-
ties, county officials. were prepared
this morning for busy days work.
They were to question during the
day Willie Stevens, brother of Mrs.
Frances Hall, widow of the slain rec
tor, and maid in the Hall home.
Persons close to the prosecutors of
both Somerset and Middlesex coun-
ties, who have been in charge of the
investigation, predicted that a man
and a woman would be arrested on
charges of first degree murder be-
fore the day closes.
Contents of the letters purported
to have been. written by DR.. Hall to
Mrs. Mills, and which have been
guarded carefully, previously were
said to show beyond doubt that the
rector and singer were accustomed to
meet in De Bussy's lane, near the old
Phillips property, where the dead
bodies were found.

forces face each other today before
Federal Judge Learned Hand in the
first pitched battle between federal
prohibition Increment authorities
and foreign and American steamship
lines over the validity of Attorney
General Daugherty's liquor ruling.
The calendar of Judge Hands
court was cleared for the hearings of
temporary injunctions returnable to-
day, restraining enforcement au-
thorities from putting into effect the
ruling forbidding American and for
eign ships leaving port after October
III from carrying liquor under seal
into or out of American ports.
The government forces were pre-
pared to present arguments to show
cause why they should not be perma-
nently enjoined from putting into
effect the provisions of the Daugh-
erty ruling Attorneys for the
steamship companies were prepared
for a bitter fight. 1t was stated by
representatives of both factions that
no matter what the result of the
hearings, the test cases would be
be brought before the United States
supreme court.
Action by the enforcement agents
against either foreign or domestic
ships is at standstill, according to
H. S. Stuart, acting collector of the
port, who said he had been instruct
ed to mark time by the treasury de-
partment. Meanwhile, crews of
French vessels in port here had thier
usual ration of wine today; foreign
vessels sailed with liquor on board,
either to sell it outside the three-mile
limit or to keep it sealed to dispose
of it in foreign ports; American YES
sells, unfavored by the extension of
time until October 21, sailed under
the bone dry law.
Millions of dollars in property,
trade rights and good will are said to
be at stake while counsel for foreign
lines have claimed that infringement
of treaties between American and
foreign countries and violation of the
foreign laws are points involved
The fight against the Daugherty
ruling was begun early last week by
the Cunard and Anchor lines, thus
furnishing the test cases. The con-
tention of the steamship companies
will be that the Daugherty ruling is
unconstitutional.
Britain Will Not Agree.
Washington, Oct. II. Negotia-
tions between the British embassy
and the state department looking to
the release from custody of vessels
of British registry seized by the pro-
hibition forces outside the three-mile
limit, were expected to take definite
form as a result of the refusal of the
British government to enter an
agreement which would permit of
reciprocal authority.
The United States suggested an
agreement proposing supervision
over American and British shipping
in coastal waters outside the inter-
nationally accepted limit of jurisdic-
ton which would aid American .au-
thorities in enforcement of customs
and liquor statutes was opposed by
the British government in a note
made public last night. On the
ground that an undesirable prece-
dent would be established, Great
Britain, however, offered to cooper
ate in every way consistent with her
fixed policies to assist in curbing ac-

tion is evidenced by the dispatch of

Second: The gasoline mania

Fourth. Laziness keeps thou

Fifth; False conception of wor-
ship, or because the sermon is poor,
or the minister worse than dead,

Roma Inquiry
VIII Be Deep,
Officials Say
Fundamentals of DirigibLe
Construction to Be
Investigated.

WASHINGTON, Feb. "a searching
investigation into the Roma disaster,
which cost nearly two score lives, will
be inaugurated Immediately, officials
said today.
The Roma investigation probably will
go far deeper than the mere ascertain
ment of the causes of the fatal crash.
Appalled, by the series of terrible acct
dents to aircraft recently, particularly
the lighter than air type Of the Roma,
officers Of the Army and Navy air serv-
ice said the inquiry would go into the
fundamentals Of lighter than-air con-
struction.
An official investigation board prob
ably will be named by Maj. Gen. Mason
II. Patrick, chief of the Army air service,
who is at Norfolk. Although the Roma
was an Army ship, it is likely Navy Of
fcers will take part in the investiga
ton, too. as the Navy is deeply interested
in lighter than-air ships. The ZR-2,
which buckled near Huh last summer,
with a terrible loss of life, was a Navy
ship.
Air officers were quick 70 point out the
ZR-2 and Roma disasters were not dis
similar. In the case Of the ZR2 1t was
faulty construction which caused the huge
ship to buckle and fall. In the case of
the Roma It was presumably the same
faulty construction which caused one Of
the elevators to slip and throw the ship
out Of control
