G.0.P.to Seek Boost
In Ratio Of Senate
Committee Posts
McNor to Ask 3-to-1
Proposition Instead
Of Current 4-to-1
BY ]. A. OTEARY.

When the Senate organizes for
the opening Of the Seventy sixth
Congress next month the Repub-
licans will seek an increase in their
ratio of membership on committees,
in accordance with the gain they
made In the November elections.
Near the close Of the last session,
when there were II Democrats, only
Is Republicans, 2 Farmer -Laborites,
l Progressive and l independent,
the ratio between the two major
parties on most committees was ap-
proximately four to one. On the
Appropriations Committee, for ex-
ample, there we're 10 Democrats to
5 Republicans. On finance, 16 DEM
ocrats, 4 Republicans and Progress
sive. Other committees varied only
slightly from this ratio.
The loss of eight seats by the
Democrats last month makes the
standing of the next Senate 66
Democrats, % Republicans, 2 Farm
er-Laborites, Progressive and in
dependent. Senator McNary of
Oregon, Republican leader, pointed
out this narrows the ratio to three
to l and he indicated he expects a
corresponding change in committee
