REPUBLICANS
GAIN 79 SEATS
3 Races in Lower House
Remain in Doubt; Hint
Senate Contest

NEW YORK, Nov. II. (UP)--
President Roosevelt returned to
the White House last night as the
nation speculated whether he
would regard sweeping Rep Iblican
victories at the polls on Tuesday
as a sufficiently strong prot It
against New Deal policies to jon
with party conservatives in pro-
viding a middle road" govern
ment until 1940.
The chief executive departed
from his Hyde Park, N. Y, home
without commenting on the results
of the general election in which
Republicans dethroned 79 Demo-
Gratis in the house, 8 senate DEM
ocrats and annexed ii governor
ships. ~
Two Democrats emerged VIC
torious in senate races with ke-
publicans last night but their trl-
umph was little comfort to the
so.called "palace guard" Of New
Dealers to whom Mr.. Roosevelt is
reported to have listened in IN
stituting his Inflated primary
"purge" of party conservatives
The victors in nip-and-tuck con-
tests were Senator Guy NJ. Gill
lette, of Iowa, and Senator Fred
erick M. Van Nuys, Of Indiana
Gillette -nosed out former Sera-
tor Lester j. Dickinson, and van
Nuys appeared to have won by
such a narrow margin that MS
Republican foe, Raymond Willis
threatened to demand a recount.
The new alignment in congress
will be: 90 ,L
Senate-Democrats 60, Repuo-
licans %, Progressives J, Farmrr-
Labor 2, Independent l. Reputh-
can gain 8: ,,,
House-Democrats 262, Rcpub-
licans 1877, Progressives 2, Farm
er.Labor 1. Republican gain 79.
Three house of representative
races still remained in doubt.

FORCE GROWS CONTINUALLY :
AS DOMINATING FACTOR OF
WORLD AFTER ARMlSTlCE
War Scars Still Remain
Through 20 Years Of the
Postwar Period
BY WILLIS THORNTON
NEA Service SSxff Eorrersonds n

Twenty years ago a weary,
bloody world was staggering to
the close of four years of World
war.
People were told it was the end
of an era, the beginning of a
Brave New World.
And it was the end of an era.
But the new era that began then
was not the world visioned by the
muddy, bloody men in the trench
eS.
Three million victims of 20
wars rot in their graves since the
War to End War.
The League Of Nations, which
was to bring a new world order
of reason and peace, drifts like a
leaky and abandoned ship. De-
mocracy is on the defensive in a
world which was never less safe
for it.
Everywhere the haunting fear
of insecurity sends men swarmlng
after strange causes, economic
and political. Children born since
1918 have never known, may new
er know, the independence OF
Americans who used to say
"Shucks, | can get job any
where~
Force has become the prime
criterion, and might makes right
in international affairs. In per-
sonal affairs, the idea that the end
iustifies the means is more and
more generally accepted.
IF THE DEAD COULD LIVE
Nevertheless, in the 20 years
since Cease Firing" sounded
across Flanders fields, a new
world has arisen. Every country
in the world would already seem
a strange land to man who died
in that war, if he could come
back and see it.
In 20 years, the population OF
nearly every country in the world
has increased by millions. What
