aa \ THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1928 BATTLES MARK VOTE-COUNTING IN UPSET TEXAS Martial Law Asked of Gov- ernor Moody; Deluge Cool- idge With Telegrams Dallas, Tex., Nov. 8.—()—Oppos- Sng factions of both political parties in, Texas, well warmed to their work by the campaign which closed Tues- day, caught their second wind to- day and refused to recognize the election as marking an armistice. in Hidalgo county, where the Democratic party was opposed by the Citizens-Republican ticket, also known as the “Independents,” made up of both Democrats and Republi- cans, the excitement attendant upon tabulation of the vote continued. Re- ports early today said that the inde- pendent faction at McAllen, Tex., had wired Governor Dan Moody ask- ing for martial law in the county. Rangers already are in the county, sent there to supervise the election. The independent faction of that disturbed county recently sent about 2,000 telegrams to President Cool- idge asking federal supervision of the election, and last night threat- ened to deluge the white house again because of dissatisfaction with meth- gs used by election officials. In the meantime the wounds which the campaign opened in the Democratic party, traditional ruler of this state, festered instead of healed in the past-campaign relaxa- tion. Leaders of the bolters, who appar- ently have thrown the state to the Republican column in a national elec- tion for the first time in history, de- manded the resignation of regular party leaders, who, they charged, are “tainted with Tammany.” The regu- lars replied that bolters would never run the affairs of the Democratic party in Texas, and declared that they would rather lose with Demo- crats than win with Republicans. President-elect Hoover continued to hold his lead as the rural vote trickled in, to the amazement of the regular leaders, who previously had predicted Smith would take the pole on that vote. Although the state’s electoral vote seemed destined to swing to the Re- ublican column for the first time, {ue of the state’s real curiosities, a epublican convressman, was having a_ terrific battle for reelection. Harry M. Wurzbach, who has been noted as the only Republican con- gressman from Texas, had an unof- ficial lead of 287 votes over his Democratic opponent, Judge Augus- tus McCloskey of San Antonio. ‘Newspaper tabulations gave Wurz- bach 28,888 and McCloskey 28,601 on nearly complete returns. Meanwhile jubilant anti-Smith Democrats discussed plans to run a special train to Washington for the presidential inauguration in March. Curtis in Washington NReady for Desk Work Washington Nov. 8.—(AP)—Sen- ator Charles Curti: ice president- elect, returned to shington early today and went at once to his office in the senate office building where he expected to spend the day work- ing. Senator Curtis, who was greeted by his sister, Mrs. Edward E, Gann and her husband, and Mrs. E. A. Harriman, president of the league of Republican women of the District of Columbia, still carried his arm in a sling but declared he was recover- ing from his fatigue. Senator Curtis said he planned to go to the home of his sister as soon ag his day’s work was finished, Grey or Blue Shadow Stripe . UITS $3750 ‘ 2 Pairs of HOOVER TO HAVE WORKING MAJORITIES IN BOTH BRANCHES OF NEXT CONGRESS Curtis’ Election Finds Repub- - licans Seeking to New Sen- ate Leader Democrats Cling Tenaciously to Most Congressional Representation pS (By The Associated Press) Almost complete congressional election returns show net Republican gains of six and probably seven in the senate and of mire than twenty in the hous», This will give Herbert Hoover working majorities in both branches in place of an almost equal party division now existing in the senate and of a majority of only 35 now held by Republicans in the House. The upsets have involved few leaders in either branch of congress and little difficulty over organiza- tion of the new senate and house, which will come into office after next March 4, is anticipated. However, senate Republicans will have to find a new leader—Senator Charles Curtis, of Kansas, their pilot, will become vice president. Several names have ben heard al- ready as a successor to the Kansan, including Senators Moses, of New Hampshire; Watson, of Indiana; Reed, of Pennsylvania; Jones, of Washington, and Edge, of New Jer- sey, but no ‘selection is expected for some weeks. Curtis Undecided Senator Curtis has not indicated whether he will continue his senator- ial post during the approaching short session of this congress. To break up the ,closely divided senate, the Republicans held every one of the thirteen seats at stake in this election and captured six of the Democratic seats involved in the contest. Indications were that a seventh seat would be lost by the Democrats in West Virginia where Senator Neely is still trailing his enilieen opponent, Henry D. Hat- field, While Herbert Hoover has broken the Democratic south, the Democrats there have held tenaciously to most of their congressional representa- tion. Only Virginia and North Car- olina have wavered in this respect. Kentucky which went overwhelming- ly for Hoover also replaced six Dem- ocratic house members with Republi- cans and this accounted for the ma+ jor gain of the Republicans in the ouse, Virginia For G. O. P. Virginia for the first time in| years will have three Republican! house members and a fourth is still possible with the tenth district in doubt. North Carolina has elected one Republican to the house and several districts have reported close contests. Despite the Republican sweep, three Democrats in the north re- placed Republicans. This honor is claimed by Louis Ludlow, newspa- rman, of Indiana, who’ defeated presentative Updike in the Indian- apolis district; Jeremiah O’Connell who defeated Representative Monast in the third Rhode Island district and Joe L. Smith who broke the Re- publican seep in West Virginia to upset Representative England in the sixth district. ‘ A conte: is on in. Philadelphia where Sepresentative James M. Beck was running close to his Dem- ocratic opponent in the first Penn- sylvania district, William L. Rooney.
