Ammonia Speeds Dishwashing

HAnnAUutd OPccuS DiSnWdSnnS
There's a reason why adding
a few drop of ammonia to the water
when washing greasy dishes and
roasting pans will help them to
come clean quicker. The ammonia
increases the alkalinity of the water,
and that aids in cutting the grease.

COP Needs Gain of rs.
In the House, the Republicans
now have 1872 members. They need
to retain all of these or equivalent
districts and gain 26 for the 2l8
which marks a clear majority. The
Democrats, with 235 members, could
lose a net of II and still maintain
control. There are six vacancies
and two minor parties now repre-
sented among the 435 House places.
In the Senate, the Republicans
must make a proportionately larger
gain of 10, since they now hold
only 80 of the SO places. Demo-
Gratis, with 56, could lose seven and
keep their majority organization
intact. Both parties are fighting
for the seat of Senator Robert M.
La Toilette, Progressive, of Wiscon-
sin, who was defeated in the Re-
publican primary.
Ninety-seven candidates are in the
field for IS Senate seats which will
be filled in tomorrow's election.
There are $50 contestants for the
432 House seats at stake and SO for
the 80 governorships now held by Is
Democrats and II Republicans.

ator Owen Brewster, Republican, for

|16 States Hold
Key TO Control
|0f Both Houses
Final COP Drive
For 9 Senute Seats
Is Center of Interest
BY the Associated Press

The balloting in 16 key States
tomorrow appears likely to chart
the Nations legislative course
for the next two years. Upward
of 35,000,000 voters will choose
among more than 1000 candi-
dates for national and State
Offices.
These 16 States, stretching from
Massachusetts, to California, hold
the major share of close contests
which will determine Democratic or
Republican control of the House
and Senate in the Eightieth Con-
gress.
Many of these same States also
are among the 33 where governor
ships are at stake in this off-year
election.
With both major parties making
their usual last-minute victory
claims, attention centered on a final
Republican drive to wrest nine Sen
ate seats from the Democrats. Added
to those which they claim already
are in the bag, the nine would give
the COP control of the Senate for
the first time since the new deal
came into power.
Seats Widely Scattered.
These seats are in New York,
Missouri, Idaho,
Montana, Washington, West Vir-
ginia, Wyoming and New Mexico.
Democrats insist they not only will
win in these races, but are unwill-
ing to concede that the Republicans
have a better than even chance to
take over in Ohio, Pennsylvania,
Delaware and Wisconsin.
In the hope of cashing in on
what many observers have called
a trend against the 'ins," the DEM
ocrats have gone out after Republi-
can-held Senate places in Kentucky
and California with what they con-
tend are fair prospects of winning
both.

test-promise to furnish most OF

Star SioH Correspondent

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Nov. A.
With party prospects admittedly
waning, Missouri Democrats to-
day kept an eye cooked toward
their traditional stronghold in
Jackson County in hope of some
word from their top man-Presi-
dent Truman-that might help
their cause.
Back home in Indepence to vote
tomorrow, it was expected that he
would see party leaders from this
section and decide whether or not
to put in last-minute plug for the
Democratic ticket which up to now
has lacked his support.
Mr.. Truman took 40-minute
walk around independence this
morning, stopping en- route for a
visit with Mayor Roger T. Sermon,
who runs a grocery store, and with
another friend, Harry Wills. pro-
prietor of service station, who had
the Truman family car on the
grease pits.
President Causes Hardness.
The Presidents walk conceded
with the opening hour of the
schools-and tardiness, consequent
", was the order of the morning.
The President went to his suite
in the Muehlebach Hotel when he
came to Kansas City from Inde-
pendence and told reporters that
he would stay at the hotel instead
of going to his Office in the Federal
Building.
Mr.. Truman plans to vote early
in the morning, he said. His special
train will start back to Washington
at $50 am. The President votes at
the American Legion Memorial
Building, which is just around the
corner from his home.
His 93-year-old mother, Mrs.
Martha Truman, also will vote as
usual at Grandview. She casts a
straight" ticket, the President told
reporters today.
Grandview is in the congressional
district where Enos Axtell is run
ming with the blessing of the Presi-
dent, who engineered the purge" of
Representative Slaughter.
The President spent a quiet week
end with his mother, but took time
out to reiterate that the United
States policy to retain sole trustee

remains unchanged.

stated by his secretary, Charles g..

Mr.. Krug is not expected In Wash

Lewis deliberately turned his back
on the conferences until the Secre-
tary shows up.
Whether Mr.. Lewis imposed his
usual silence rule on those with
whom he is negotiating could not
be learned from Capt. COLLISION or
his associates.
There was no explanation from
either side as to the nature of the
conversations or whether the Gov
eminent directly or indirectly had
bowed to Mr.. Lewis demand that
the Krug-Lewis agreement be re-
opened for higher wages.
Unrest Over Contract Blamed.
Mr.. Lewis is aiming to end the

threatening to plunge the Nation
into another Gripping soft coal
strike.
A scattering of wildcat walkouts
which marked the beginning of the
