still could be an even more vital
factor than heretofore.
Most politicians here agreed, for
instance, that the Government re-
organization bill shelved by the
House last year could not be en-
acted in the same form in 1899. Al
though President Roosevelt is ex-
pected to resubmit the program, it
may be changed sufficiently to meet
more general congressional approval.
Rebellious Democrats also may
have considerable to say on the
farm situation, on taxes. and on pro-
posals to amend the Wagner Labor
Relations Act and Social Security
laws. Their voice will be heard not
only on the Senate and House floors,
but in committee rooms, where legis-
lation is shaped for presentation to
Congress.
Republicans, too, will have a
greater voice in the all-important
committee debates, for membership
is apportioned according to congress
sional strength. The Republican
ratio will grow, particularly in the
House.
For several sessions, the ratio of
Democrats to Republicans on major
House committees has been about
18 to 7. The new lineup may mean
that proportion will be changed to
IS to 10 or IA to IL.
Consequently, the makeup of the

exceptional importance to the ad-

which major bills will be brought
before the House.

stanchest supporters on the COM
mittee Representatives Harlan,
Democrat, of Ohio and Greenwood,
Democrat, of Indiana-in Tuesdays
election. Against that loss. it offsets
defeat for Chairman O'Connor Of
New York and Representative Driver,
Democrat, of Arkansas.
President Roosevelt had called
Representative O'Connor one of the
most effective obstructionists in the
House, and New Dealers blamed him
for letting the committee bottle up
a wage-hour bill for months. Rep
resentative Driver, who was defeated
in the primaries, was among the foes
of that bill.
Mr.. OCOnnor'S defeat gave Repre-
sentative SABBATH, Democrat, of Illi-

an unobstructed path to the chair
