REED Wants c. 0.P.
TO EXPEL BOLTERS
Senator to Present Appeal
for Action at Next
Party Caucus.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Expulsion from the Republican party
rolls of the independents who supported
Franklin D. Roosevelt last November
will be demanded by Senator Reed of
Pennsylvania at the next Republican
caucus, he announced last night.
Reed took the position that, with the
Republicans in the minority now, they
could lose nothing by casting out those
Senators who rebelled against the lead
ership of President Hoover.
Four Senators-Johnson Of Ca1ifor-
mia, Cutting of New Mexico, La Fol-
lette Of Wisconsin and Norris of Ne
braska-possibly would be affected
should Reeds purpose carry in the
caucus.
However. Senator McNary of Oregon,
who will be the party leader In the
next Senate, said recently he would
oppose an effort to punish the boilers.
He took the view that 1t was the
privilege of the States to define the re-
publicanism of their Senators and fore
cast that any move like that planned
by Reed would be defeated.
Norris. who supported Alfred z.
Smith in 1928, suggested when the
question came up before that those
wanting to expel members from the
party had better tread carefully 'or
we might read them out"
