As election day approaches
all signs point to continued
Democratic control of botl

From the start of the cam.
Ipaign the Republicans have haC
no chance Of overturning thC

in the Senate, where only "a

have centered on winning bach
the House, where the entire
membership Of 437 Is UP fol

It now appears that the Re.
publicans will increase theil
strength in the House, but there
are no indications Of the kind
of q sweep that would be nee
eSSary to give them Q majority
The present party division In
the House is $50 Democrats to
ISL Republicans with six seats
vacant. Each party formerly
held three Of the vacant seats
Thus, the Republicans would
have to hold their three vacan-
cies and capture IS more from
Democrats to reach the magic

The Republicans have taken
control Of Congress only twice
in 80 years. Neither time were
they required to make as big q

belled against wartime ration

The future of the National
Interstate Highway program
a 41,000-mile system of nom
stop freeways-is full of
chuckholes.
Representative Blatnik, Dem
ocrat of Minnesota, told the
Nations top highway officials
yesterday that attacks on the
multi-billion-Gollar program in
the next session of Congress
will make past criticism seem
''like tea party"
Mr.. Blatnik is chairman of
q special House Public works
subcommittee investigating fed
eFal-aid highway construction.
The subcommittee recently
heard testimony of widespread
fraud and mismanagement in
the construction of interstate
highways in Oklahoma.
Subcommittee investigators
are checking several other
States and eventually will look
into Federal aid programs in
all so States.
Mr.. Blatnik addressed the
Transportation Congress Of the
National Highway Users Con-
ference, attended by 900 top
highway and traffic officials.
He emphasized that he still
supports the interstate pro-
gram. But he warned that con-
trolls will have to be tightened
to insure that future scandals
do not disillusion the public.
He added that he is opposed to
further increases in the Federal
gasoline tax to pay for inter-
state highways, or tolls on any
part of the national freeway
network.
Mr.. Blatnik labeled as
nonsense" suggestions that
sections of the interstate system
in and around big cities be
eliminated because they are
costly. He cited figures to show
that on the basis of use, city
freeways are more pustified
than rural highways.
