publican: "The Pennsylvania result is

Senator Simmons. Democrat, ranking
minority member Of the Finance Com
mittee, said
"The outcome in Pennsylvania looks
significant to me. 1t looks as if the
Administration had been doing some
thing not satisfactory or pleasing to
the people. The result should admonish h
I the Republicans to pursue a different
! policy hereafter"
Senator Walsh, of Massachusetts,,
/ Democrat, said:
The Republican primary. election in
| Pennsylvania is further evidence Of
the countrywide disapproval and dis
appointment with the Republican ma
tiona administration Rarely has an
administration been so quickly and un-
mistakably rebuked by its party. The
failure to find any solution for our
afterwar ills or to give the country
sound reconstruction program is so
patent that the country has given up
hope of redress from the present Re
publican leadership in Washington, and
the primary elections TO date indicate
q crushing defeat to the Administra-
ton by the entire electorate of the
country next Noyemher"
