VICTORY IN NOVEMBER BALLOT
Spokesman for Both Parties
Predict They Will Control
Lower House of Congress

Washington, Oct. 20.-H)-Spokes-
men for both major. parties we're out
today with flat predictions they would
control the house after the November
election.
Jouett ShouSe, chairman of the
Democratic national executive COM
mittee, for the first time yesterday
placed. his formal declaration beside
the optimistic pronouncements of
other members of his party.
"A dispassionate summary Of the
facts. allowing full consideration for
over-optimism In ON of our re-
ports" led to the conclusion, he said.
Representative Will r. Wood Of
Indiana, chairman of the Republican
congressional committee. Immediately
replied: THE next house of represent
tativeS not only will be Republican,
but safely Republican"
ShouSe predicted q minimum gain
Of 60 seats and added he firmly be-
lieved the overturn would be closer
to 70. He counted at least seven
seats in New England, at least is in
New York. Pennsylvania, New Jersey,
Delaware, Maryland and West Vir-
ginia, and all districts lost in south.
ern states two years ago.
To these he added 80 seats in the
middle west from Ohio to Kansas.
This may seem excessive" he said,
but. when it is realized that at pres
ent we have only three seats in In
diana, three in Ohio. six in Illinois,
three In Kentucky and six in Mis-
souri,. whereas we will have a major
ity Of the delegations in most of these
states this time, 1t will be seen there
is no exaggeration."
Wood replied:
The Republican landslide Of 1928
is not going to be followed by a land
slide in the opposite direction Nov. 1.
Generally we will hold our own In
the November elections: We also will
capture a few districts now repre-
sented by Democrats. Democratic
forecasts of today mean no more than
the forecasts of two years ago."
Touching or the senate situation,
Shouse said the Democrats might
gain q majority Of n in that body
II the partys candidates won in three
cut Of five states he classed as doubt
ful-Illinois, Minnesota, South Da-
kota. Colorado. and Wyoming. But,
he said. the issue a too close In too
