WASHINGTON, Aug. Nearly
half the Senators and Congressman

An analysis of the results to date
reveals:
1. With few exceptions, both Re

seeking a vote of confidence" in the
primaries, have been given that vote.
2. The few exceptions happen to
be brighter lights in the Republican
party, namely, Senators New and Nc
Cumber and Representatives Camp
bell Of Kansas and ireland and Cop.
ley Of Illinois.
Drys Gain in House.
8. The 17S Congressman thus far
nominated show a net gain of two
drys in the House, the Peoria Qll)
district, which voted out Represents
tive Ireland, having preferred a wet,
while three new drys are on the
House list of prospects.
Defeats thus far administered to
Republican leaders in the primaries
and other defeats they face in the
coming elections have so stirred Ad-
ministration directors that there Is
increasing consideration of abandon
ing the tine-honored seniority rule.
Both among Republicans and Demo
