Willkie to Face Hostile Senate
Even If He Should Be Elected

If, by a miracle, Wendell Will
kie should be elected President of
the United States in 1940-
He would have a predominantly
Democratic Senate on his hands
his entire four-year term.
That much is virtually guaran-
teed by simple arithmetic and the
Constitution.
Here's how:
If the G. o. P. were to reflect
all its Senators up for election
this year and win every Demo-
cratic and minority party seat be-
ing voted on, it would gain IS seats
in the Senate.
These added to the 90 seats they
already have, Republicans would
still lack one vote of the neces-
sary majority to carry any issue.
But the Republicans can't pos
sibly win 25 more seats in Novem-
Der. They can't possibly win in
Florida, Texas, Mississippi, Vir-
ginia and Tennessee, all of which
have a senatorial election this
year.
That leaves only 43 Republican
votes as the very best WilIkie can
hope for.
In addition. rising New Deal
strength in West Virginia, as is
shown in the Gallup polls and
Rush Hollis defeat by a New
Dealer in the Democratic primary,
indicates that Hollis successor

TIMELY TOPICS

ILugubrious item from a Cali
fOrnia newspaper: Bill Jarret
has returned from working on the
graveyard Shift of the Corpse Min
ing Company in Coffin Mine, To-
Gated in Dead Mans Canyon in
Funeral Range at the edge Of
Death Valley. He leaves next week
for a prospecting trip to Devils
Playground in Hells Half Acre"
Truth in the movies got a boost
recently when a lecturer was made
to stop showing a fake travel film
depicting the home of an African
cannibal. The "cannibap had
made complaint that he had not
been paid for starring in the role.
He also disclosed that he was a
Harlem janitOr who had never
been outside of Greater New York.
Superintendent Sorenson of a
Detroit automobile plant doesn't
like to see men sitting down at
their work Seeing workman
squatting on a box scraping bit
of wire, Sorenson kicked the box
from under him. The workman
arose and knocked Sorenson down.
Sorenson shouted, You're fired"
The workman retorted: THE hell
am; / work for the telephone
company"
Among the factors" sent from
Hollywood to make a recent pic
ture in Virginia were four sheep.
While Virginia sheep might have
been obtained, it was thought best
to use those with experience be-
fore the camera.

VIII be an Administration Demo
crat
In the cases of Missouri, Della
ware and Maryland - each of
which has a Senator up for re-
election this year - the public
opinion polls show rising Demo,
cratic majority.
That leaves 80 votes in the Sen
ate for the Grand Old Party until
January, 1913, at best.
And even that number will be
reduced unless the Republicans
defeat incumbent Democrats in
every one of the following States
New Mexico, Ohio, Rhode Is
land, Pennsylvania, Connecticut.
New York, Indiana, Wyoming, Ne
yada, Washington, Montana and
Massachusetts.
Unless all indications - includ-
ing both the Gallup and Fortune
polls - are wrong, it can't be
done.
Granting Republican victory
next month, in six of the IL States
listed above, a landslide victory
in 1912 would still leave the G. O.
P. three votes short of a majority
from 1885. Continued Demo
cratic dominance of the Senate is
made highly probable by the fact
that of "a seats now occupied by
Democrats at stake in the 1912
election, nine are sure Democratic
from the Deep South.

She did not even deny that she

she nodded. saying. I'm quite

she was whistling in the dark.
Walter sighed. I've a good

I'D find him sooner or later"
Again she went to the door and
this time be let her go. He pom
dered the matter. This was what
he got for having given Jan her
head.
She was in for trouble and no
one could stop her-not even Terry
Carlisle. Walter would have bet
heavily, and with odds, that his
daughter came out victorious.
Well, it was her life. How often
he had eomforted himself with
that conclusion.
This time ii was not quite so

liking to the young minister. Jan

fineness, but, -doggone it, she had
not been trained to adapt herself,
she was in no way fitted for a

Walters sigh was long and I'M

He thought. maybe she'll get

 You never used to worry about such things. wish you wouldn't now. What yol should be thinking is us: about o3tting married. I haven't mentioned it lately because you-well, you didn't seem to want me to. I guess you were so inter ested in that crowd you work and play with that you saw me as a pretty dull fellow" His voice was low, filled with emotion.
 "Sue Mary, I love you now, and I always will, and do have a future. My boss told me yesterday that I'm to be in the research department from now on. I'll get raise and there'u be more money in the fu- ture. And that's the work I want; the work prepared for in college. And if you were only mine, well - I guess I could know real happi- ness"
 You do love me-" he said finally looking down at her. "I can tell it when you kiss me. That's all that matters. So let's set the date. We'll find an apartment, start buying fur niture and get married before you find something else to worry about"
 She rubbed her cheek against his and tried not to let him sense her worry. She wished she could settle things that simply, but first she meant to discover what Vera and Nick and Natalie were working for, why they had used her.
 If she were to tell Joe he would be furious. He would probably start out now and with swinging fists settle Nick to his own satisfaction.
 It's not that I'm being melodra- matic, she argued to herself. It's just that I feel responsible. I did get taken in. I did get Vera that job at the office, and I was fool. But now that I'm awake, and may be they are dangerous. If their loyalty to their cause can make them go to such lengths, certainly I can do my duty.
 A year ago politics was just word to me. "Un-American activi- ties" was scare-phrase. Fifth Col umnists hadn't even appeared in print. Maybe I'm hysterical: maybe there isn't anything to fear, but I have to satisfy my curiosity,

 "Yes," she said. q want to, Joe. We will, but we can't do 1t in such a short time"
 "If you really love me there is something you can do right away" he told her. "You can break away from the Youth Progress crowd. You won't be lonely rom now on. We'll see each other every night if you want, and you can keep busy shop ping for our home. Girls always have plenty to buy at time like this.
 Give up that crowd and move some place else. Make clean break. They aren't our kind of people"
 q will, Joe," Sue Mary promised. Give me time. They are my friends IT can't just drop them. When I was lonely they helped me. They've taught me to think and to see 8 whole new world. I can't just walk out on them simply because you don't like them"
 She wanted time. If only mir acle could happen within a week and she could convince herself there was no danger, that they weren't a menace. But back in her mind lowered that horrible doubt.
 You're dodging the issue, Sue Mary" Joe took his arms away and turned to look at her. "One moment you say you love me and then the next you seemingly try to block our hopes and plans for marriage. That crowd of crackpots means nothing to you. I do. Now stop stalling and make the break"
 Joe, we mustn't quarrel. Not now" She had to make him understand. You know'I love you and I want to marry you. Let me take a little time to settle my own affairs"
 "All right, Sue Mary. I'm not trying to be unfair. Take a week. It's not so unusual for girl to want to get married. Tell them that and then move, and you won't have to see them any more"
 "Ill try, darling"
 A week. She wondered just what she could do in a week.
