HOUSE, SENATE
LEADERS ASKED
FOR REPORTS
Bv GEORGE DURNO

HYDE PARK, N. Y. Aug. 6 Il.
N.SO. Further marShaling his
forces for the big campaign drive
about to start, President Roose.
welt today called the chairmen OF
the Democratic senatorial and con-
gressional campaign committees
to the summer White House here
for conference and report.
The President was particularly
anxious to hear from Representa-
tive Pat Drewry Of Virginia, head
of the congressional committee.
Drewry recently completed a po-
litical tour of the States and came
to Hyde Park prepared to report
on prospects of holding the huge
Democratic majority in the lower
House of Congress in view Of Re
publican claims they will not only
cut it to the bone but possibly even
regain control.
Senator James Hamilton Lewis
of Illinois, Chesterfieldian head Of
the senatorial committee, also was
primed with some interesting re-
ports. His task, however, was not
of such vital Importance as that
assigned to Drewry. 1t will be
impossible for the Republicans to
overturn the top-heavy Democratic
Senate majority.
DreWry's committee is confront
ed with the job Of not only beat
ing off the G.. o. p. assault but
meeting the threat OF Father
Coughlin's Union for Social JUS
tice, the Townsend old-age pen
sion advocates and adherentS gen.
orally Of Representative William
Lemke, third party candidate.
Ignoring recent deaths, the
makeup of the SeVenty-fourth
Congress was as follows: House:
Democrats, 315; Republicans, 104;
ProgressiveS, z; Farmer-LaboriteS,
8; vacancies, 6. Senate: Demo
Gratis, 10; Republicans, %; Pro
gressives, /; Farmer-Labor1tes, z.
All 435 members of the House are
up for election; 80 Senate places
as usual must be voted on.
Another caller on the PreSl-
dents engagement schedule was
Mayor Fiorella LaGuardia, Of New
York, who arrived at Hyde Park
in his capacity of chairman OF
the National Mayors Conference.
He was accompanied by Paul Bet
tiers, secretary of the conference.
Judge Thomas H. Dowd, Of Erie
county, N. Y, had been invited to
drop in as an old friend and pay
his respects. Herbert c. Pell, for
mer New York State Democratic
chairman, also was on Mr.. RooSe-
velt'S calling list.
