Next Senate May Be
Organized by

WASHINGTON. Dee. l.-More
thorns we're thrown in the path ui
the Republican scnatc leaders today
Mhcr the 50 called insurg"nt groul'
manifested indifference" ahou re
turning to the party fold.
With the Republicans holding
only II theoretical ma .jorily of IS Is
~ in the ncW senate, Senators cur
lis, Watson and other leaders hav"
made ovcrturcs not only to 0ustcd
Independents; Republicans, but to tn"
lone Farmer l.aboritc senator, ship
stead, Minnesota, in the hope Of
holding control of the new senate.
Curtis and Watson have offered
10 restore Senator Frazier, indepen-
dent Republican, North Dakota, 70
craftsmanship of n committee an!
give him al possible party favorS.
President Coolidge has had Sen
a,nr Shipstcad at the Whit" li"ns"
Tor breakfast and reports have been
spread thar he will turn RrpHh!i-
can.
Frazier and Shipstoad, however,
Indicate no immediate intention Of
embracing the Republican organiza-
ton. The United Press is informed
reliably thai Frazier recently Mas
been antagonizcd by the appoint
mrut Of {. T.. Madgc ms United
States mal .,al in his hom, state.
Nudge was the candidate Of for
mer Governor l.. y. Hanna Of North
Dakota, who has fought both Fra
zier and his friend, Senator Nyc,
Republican, North Dakota.
Hac Upper Hand
Believing that he has the upper
band, Frazier has given Republican
headers to understand that he must
receive state patronage if he is t"
be accepted by the party organ
ization. He was oustcd from the
organization two wears ago with
Senators Brookhart, LaFollcttc and
Iadd for joining in the LaFollcttc
presidential movement.
Shipstcad is keeping dlsorectiy
silent and is proud Of his position o:
holding the balance of power be,
tween Republicans and Democrats
in the closely drawn senate lineup.
Republican leaders have indicat-
cd they will attempt to restore Fra
2ier and Shipstead to patronage in
accordance with their new policy of
letting hygones be bygohes.
If they do not, and if Frazier and
Shipstcad are not paeificd, there is
q possibility that Democrats may or
ganizr the next senate though they
ale in the minority.
