Shouse Says Democratic Victory Certain Will Have House and May
 May Win Senate

WASHINGTON, Oct. 20. = For the first time during the course of the campaign, Jouett Shouse, Chairman of the Democratic Ex- ecutive Committee, today predicted that the Democratic Party would control the next National House of Representatives and practically wipe out the Republican Senate majority, if, indeed, it does not control that body by narrow mar gin over the Republicans.
 Shouse placed the absolute mini mum of the Democratic gains in the House at sixty members and declared that it would probably be nearer seventy than sixty. Only seats now held by Republicans would have to be carried by the Democrats to give them clear majority.
 That the Democrats will make remarkable Sc te gains, MT. Shouse says, is foregone con- clusion, and they might gain a majority over the Republicans
