The campaign for Senate and
House nominations of the ajol
political parties-in preparation fol
the November 5 congressional elec-
tions-is well under way. 1t has
already produced several contests
of major interest in the primaries
and prospective contests in the
general election, although pri-
maries have been held so far only
in Illinois.
For example, there are the races
for the Republican senatorial nomi-
nations in Wisconsin, Minnesota
Nebraska and Indiana, and for the
Democratic senatorial nominations
in Mississippi and New York. AL
though the nominations for the
Senate in Massachusetts, do not
take place until June l8, it is vir
tually certain that the veteran
Senator Walsh, Democrat, will be
opposed by former Senator Lodge
Republican. This contest will be
of vital interest to soth parties,
because it will indicate the political
trend in New Englands most popu-
lous State.
Former Senator Lodge last night
made his first political speech since
he resigned from the Senate to
enter the Army early in the war
He spoke in Portland, Greg, at the
invitation of Senator Morse, one of
the Republican liberals in the
Senate.
The Illinois primaries on April 9
were for House nominations. since
there are no elections for Governor
or Senator in the State this year.
The Democrats in Chicago rolled
up huge primary vote-and the
Republican showing in that metro
politan area was disappointing to
the G. o. P. DoWn-State. however,
the Republicans showed great
strength. If Republican hopes are
fulfilled next November, the party
will pick up three House seats.
May Oppose La Toilette.
In Wisconsin, the Republican or
ganization controlled by Tom Cole
man-an inveterate hater of the
La Follettes-will hold a State con-
vention the end of this week. The
convention, if Mr.. Coleman has his
way, will indorse candidate to run
for the senatorial nomination
against Senator La Toilette in the
primary August 13. 1t is generally
assumed that, if such an indorse-
ment is made, it will go to Circuit
Court Judge Joseph R. Mccarthy
of Appleton. The Coleman Repub-
licans are in stew, since Senator
La Toilette announced he will enter
the Republican primary, following
the dissolution of the La Toilette
Progressive Party some weeks ago.

maries not only will determine the
