Party Lines Never Even There alw is a fringe of nor- mal regu among both Repub- licans and Democrats who stray cver the party dividing line on specific votes. Even that would be sufficient to determine the result in either house of the next Con- ty of one fonal pow sti- It ha Seventy-first Congress because of the size of the regular Republican s peen ununporiant in ll]\ majority in the House. That al- ways has been big enough to en- gulf the wandering vote and it will be eliminated in the Seventy- seccnd Congress. More important has been the split on the Republican side in the Senate which threw legisla- tive control, except in rare cases, into hands of a Demo- cratic-Insurgent Republican co- alition. Democratic defections to join Republican regulars offset that only in final stages of the tariff fight. Again, however, Republican lead- ership was able to rely on the House majority either to defeat in conference or to modify sharply Senate coalition meéasures not in harmony with administration views. The Senate growled but ultimately yielded. That last legislative ditch will be missing in the Seventy-second Con- gress. Rural Areas Dominate Still the picture is incomplete. In the Seventy-first Congréss it has been calculated that 268 mem- bers represent rural constituencies from 44 states, while 160 represent urban districts in 35 states. The other 17 members were elected at large. . | The 1930 census shows the dis- population tribution of to be, NEW HOUSE DRESSES Guaranteed Fast Colors All Sizes In “FRUIT OF THE LOOM* Cloth Many new color combinations with fancy bindings ince elec- | state, with one| n! jous Chinese den at Newark, . bombs in an effort to o | upon a white slave depot operated .| by Chinese. n!of »most improbahly action by the OFFICERS FROM TALLAPOOSA TO BE ENTERTAINED Lieut.

We found a few of this, and too many of 'tother. We discovered plenty of “mistakes,” and we marked them down too! We said: “Let us make the prices so low that folks will talk about us for months to come!” The lists that follow are a fair example of the values that the sale brings about. Some may last a day-—some two days. And maybe some, three days. But you can readily see, if you read the prices, that they will not last very long . . . And that is why we are not urging anybedy to “Come Early.” IT WILL NOT BE NECESSARY TO DO THAT! All we need to say is that the sale begins at nine in the morning, and that you can buy all you need at these prices.
