FARM BLOCKS and

CLAIMING VICTORY
All Sorts OF interpretations Put
On Results of Recent
Election
BY HARRY B. HUNT
NEA Service Writer

WASHINGTON, Nov. 24X--All
sorts Of interpretations have been
put upon the result of the recent
election.
Probably the significance most
generally attached to it, however,
is that it voiced the peoples de-
sire to be done with blocs in Con-
gress, and for definite, undivided
party control in Legislative affairs.
Whethe,' chat is 20 be the result
remains to be seen. On paper ire
Republicans have a clear. workable
majority in both houses So did
they in the last Congress.
But the "farm bloc and the
progressive bloc" which refused
to follow the edicts Of the admin
istration's party leaders, made this
majority ineffective by the balanee
of power they achieved
That one or the other of these
blocs, or a combination of both,
may accomplish the same control
in the newly elected Congress is
by no means impossible nor I'M
likely.
So far as the farm bloc, at least.
is concerned, it is evident that its
leader, Senator Capper Of Kansas,
considers the election carried an
Endorsement of its activities so CON
vincing as to make its continuance
inevitable.
"The entire Kansas delegation,
which supported the so-called farm
bloc was returned to Congress
all by increased majorities," says
Capper in an analysis Of what lie
terms ''The Nations Verdict"
Of his own reelection, largely as
q result of his fight for rall,rate
revision and other measures SIC
officially designed TO assist agricul
ture-all of which wera indorscd
by the farm bloc whia'l Re headed,
he says:
