C. 0. r. FIGHT FOR CONTROL
 OF HOUSE TAXES NEW ANGLE

private life, has been keeping clear of the fight over Longworth. He has sought to avoid raising the issue himself, taking the ground that the dry organization should take no part in a matter affecting the organiza- tion of the House. He held that to do so would cause enmities among powerful House leaders, which would injure, rather than help, the dry cause.
 But some of the more aggressive drys have now taken matters into their own hands. This has caused some reaction in favor of Longworth among House members. who feel that he is being attacked unfairly by the drys.
 LongwOrth To Continue Fight.
 LongWorth came out in a state ment late Friday declaring he is Tn the fight to stay. He made no ref erence to the attack of the drys upon him. But he answered the complaint against eastern domination in the House. Coming from Ohio, his cleo tio2 as leader would not increase the sectional leadership in the House any more than the election of Gra- ham from Illinois, he said.
 Longworth emphasized that the re- publican members must bury their differences or they will be helpless Tn race or the democrats, who, Wlln the aid of a few insurgent republi- cans, could do what they pleased in the House.
 "If we cannot agree early in the session upon a legislative program, we will run the risk on the one hand of failing to enact progressive and constructive legislation which the country is demanding, and on the other hand risk the enactment ot legislation of a radical and destruc- tive character" Longworth said.
 Meanwhile the LaFollette bloc, un- der the immediate direction of Rep resentative Nelson of Wisconsin, claims to have nearly twenty votes, enough to hold up the organization of the House unless their committee demands are met. However, Graham by declaring for repeal of Section 15A of the transportation act and general reduction of freight rates, has won votes among the ultra pro- gressives. and the LaFollette group may find its strength narrowed down to its own state delegation of eleven, which would be too small to do much damage to the majority side.

Wet And Dry Question Has Been injected By Graham ConteSting LongWorth For Leadership
By RAYMOND CHAPTER
Ueased Wire to The Age-HcraId)

Oeased Wire to The Age-Herald)
 WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-The fight for control of the republican organi- zation in the House of Representa- lives has taken an unexpected turn involving the dry question. Personal feeling is beginning to be stirred up and the situation within the repub- lican camp is growing more tense.
 This feeling has been caused by an attempt to rally the dry members around Representative Graham of H. linois, who is the progressive candi- date against Representative Long, worth of Ohio for majority floor leader. A statement was given out by Representative Cotton of Utah, urging all drys to get behind Ora ham. Cotton characterized Long worth, who comes from Cincinnati al wet, and declared that the House is in danger of coming under wet domination. Representative Graham of Pennsylvania, wet, is in line for the chairmanship of the judiciary committee to fill the shoes of Andrew Volstead Shell of New York is slated for the chairmanship of the rules committee and is high on judiciary Speaker Gillett Is credited with wet leanings.
 Outlook Gives Concern.
 This outlook is one that Is giving concern to some drys in view of the plans of vets to conduct an aEgres- sive fight for modification of the Volstead act at the coming session The vets have just called a confer ence to meet here in January for the purpose of bringing pressure to bear on Congress.
 Until now, the fight has been con- ducted rather mildly by both the Longworth and Graham factions. The raising of the wet and dry Issue gives new turn to it. It will stir up con- siderable new pressure against Long worth. For instance, Wayne E. Wheeler, the major domo of the Anti Saloon league. an Ohio renuhlican in
