PROGRESSIVE BLOC
SHORN Of power
VIII Have Hard Time It CON-
Ing Congressional Sessions y

Washington. Nov. 10 (UP)-The
so-called progressive block In the
senate faces .dreary future despite
the success OF Its individual men,
bers in the general election.
Deprived of its balance of power
and apparently deserted by several
OF Its members. the western inde-
pendents will be virtually powerless
in the next congress.
The proEressives are powerful In
the present senate because of the
almost equal division of democrats
and republicans but republicans will
have sufficient strength in the next
senate to override them.
The present lineup is ~ repubIi-
cans. IS democrats and one farmer
laborite. The next senate will have
SIS republicans. 80 democrats and
one farmer-laborite. unless late re-
turns in some Of the close states
change the outcome now indicated.
More Reelected
The progressives who we're re-
elected are: Senators La Toilette,
Wis: Frazier. N. D.: and Howell,
Neb.. republicans; Wheeler, Mont.
and Dill. Wash, democrats; and
Shipstead. Mimi, farmer-laborite.
Their success in surviving the
Hoover landslide will give the pro-
Eressives the same numeral strength
in the next sepate that they enjoy
now If all members OF the group
continue to vote together on major
legislation. This however is consid-
cred unlikely.
Some of the p",gressives. notably
Senators Borah, Idaho and Brook
hart, Ia. were among Herbert
Hoover's staunchest supporters and
may act with the administration ma
jority in the next congress.
Should the progressives retain
their unity, they will not have suf-
1icient strength when the Hoover
congress comes into office to COM
bine with the democrats and out
vote the administration as they often
did at the last session.
Furthermore, most of the pro-
gressives' policies were espoused
by Governor Afr I f. Smith in his
presidential campaign and his over
whelming defeat is certain to be in
tcrpreted by the conservatives as a
rebuke to the progressive cause.
making it more difficult for pro-
gressive senators to win conserva-
tive support for their measures.
What treatment the republican
prosressives who deserted their
rlrty during the campaign will re-
ceive in the next congress is uncer-
tain. Senators Norris. Neb,, and
Blaine, Wis, oponly endorsed Smith
and La Toilette refused to endorse
Hoover.
Punitive Action
Some punitive action may be
taken by the republicans against
Norris and Blaine. III 1924. the re-
publican progressives who support
cd Robert NJ. La Toilette rather
than President Coolidge were ex-
cl ded from party caucuses and de-
prived of their patrona-e.
The democrats also may take
some action against Senators Sim
mons. N. c., and Hefiin. Ala, who
refused to support Smith. Neither
of these senator's endorsed the OPP
position candidate as Blaine and
Norris did. however.
All Of the eight new republican
SC 1ators elected with Hoover are
understood to be conservatives and
all supported Hoover. Besides this
gain for the conservatives, they
picked up between 20 and IS seats
in the house. Some of the house
contests are still in doubt.

The recently impoverished people
were forced to accept these jobs in
many cases.
Town Evacuated
Nunxiata had been completely
evacuated this morning. All orna-
ments were removed from the large
handsome church of the village
much to the despair Of the populace.
When it is considered that Etna s
present eruptive mouth opened at
only about $500 feet above sea
level, while the volcanoes height is
1870 feet. it can be imagined with
what force the menacing stream of
lava is issuing from it.
Issued Orders
Prepier Mussolini forbidding pub.
lie subscriptions for the victims of
the eruption. This implied that 1t was
a government matter and that the
council of ministers, which has been
convoked for Monday. would take up
all relief measures necessary.
The plight of the peasant folk is
pitiable. The lava stream poured
across land valued at from $4,000 to
$2,500 an acre. Those who owned Is
or more acres OF this fruitful land
were considered rich. This year there
had been an enormous demand for
lemons, which are gathered twice
yearly.
Lemons were bringing nearly three
cents each on the tree, now the
molten stream is creeping through
the orchards and destroying them.
Eating Nuts
Once prosperous farmers today
were filling their pockets with nuts
from the trees. singing wine bottles
over their shoulders and trudging
away from the scene OF desolation or
begging rides to safety. Others were
selling for " song what was left of
their once ample stores of fruit and
wines.
Crowds of spectators we're Jour-
neying to the zone of fire. Mainly
they were SiciIians but there also
were foreign visitors who had come
to spend the winter in Taomina and
its environs.
A communique issued by the vol
cano institute today said that at the
mouth Of the volcano the velocity of
the eruption was four meters a min
ute while the molten stream at its
foot was flowing at the average
rate of four meters an hour. Above
the molten stream masses of clink-
ers were floating. half moving like
swarm of gigantic snails.
