ALL A GUESS
The great drive of the regular
Republican managers will be to
eliminate Borah; the Eastern
group, typified by Charles D.
HiIes, New York national COM
mitteeman, want a thorough 60
ing reactionary-but Mr.. Hilles
would probably take poison as
soon as he would accept Herbert
Hoover.
The New York committeeman
was frozen out of national political
patronage affairs by former Presi-
dent Hoover-and has not forgot
ten it.
No prediction as to whom the
will nominate can now
be based on more than a guess.
Yet it is not difficult to foresee
q great resurgence of Republi-
can strength; with money easy
for the Republican campaign
chests. Political observers, know.
ing that practical politics plays
a great part in presidential cam
paigns, will not predict Roose-
velt's defeat at the present time.
The Senate, which is now ex-
actly two-thirds Democratic, can
not by any chance be changed
into Republican Senate.
One-third of the Senators come
up for reelection; but so many
Of those come from solidly Demo
cratic States that there cannot
be a Republican majority in the
Senate for several years.
THE SENATE MAKEUP
A fierce political battle will be
waged over the House member
ship, which is now made up of
319 Democrats, 103 Republicans,
seven Progressives, three Farmer
Laborites and three vacancies.
This three to- one Democratic
lead must be cut tremendously to
give the G. o. P. a majority.
The Republicans would have to
elect 218 for q clear majority,
which is more than twice the mum.
Der they now have in the lower
House. There has not been much
Of a Republican prediction so far
that the party could effect a
comeback as strong as that: but
il the next few months show q
continued Republican trend, it is
quite possible to see the electoral
college line up with a small ma
jority for Roosevelt and a narrow
majority in the House,
with a Democratic. but slightly
anti. Roosevelt, tinge in the Sen
ate.
If a Republican defeats Presi.
dent Roosevelt, he will have that
