PARTY MARGIN 1S NARROW N NEXT SESSION First Roll Call Will Stat When Curtis Pounds Senate Gavel (Continued rrom Page One) Senator LaFollette, voted with the Republicans to effect the change of party power. The Senate will convene in the Seventy-second Congress with an even -more narrow margin. {to take control, an affirmative move|Would never be happy to be de- to that end must be made. What Might Happen A resolution proposing to name a Democratic President protempore to succeed Senator Moses of New Hampshire, present Republican holder of the post, is the probable method that would be followed. To bz successful, it must be supported by at least two non-democrats Republican irregulars in the Sen- ate have voted in the past to give an important committee chairman- ship to a Dgmocrat despite Republi can control. That was in the Sixty- eighth Congress. Then Senator Cummins was the Republican candidate for Chairman of the Interstate Commerce Com- mittee, Senator Smith of Carclina his Democratic rival. Sen- ator Couzens of Michigan was the candidate of a group of Republican Irregulars. Long Deadlock There was a deadlock for a menth. Finally, on the thirty-: ond ballot, Smith achieved the ne- cessary majorily of Senators voting hart, Jowa, and LaFollette, Wiscon- sin, of the Republican side, and Senator Shipstead, Minnesota, Farmer-Labor, cast votes for Smith. Senator Norris, Nebraska, Re- publican, and several other Repub- lican irregulars, with Senator Jones, Washington, of the Republican making Smith's election possible. There is another Senator on the Republican side who will sit in the new Congress and has a back- ground of party irregularity even on organizational issues. He is Schall, the blind Senator from Min- nesota. Many Irregulars in 1917 Schall was a member of the| House, politically classed as a pro- gressive, when the War Congress, the Sixty-fifth, was organized in a special session in April, 1917. There were 212 Republicans, 209 Democrats, eight Progressives or other scattering and six vacancies when the House convened. The Minnesota member was the first Speaker recognized by the Clerk of the House, presiding un- til organization was accomplished. Schall urged “that progressive Democrat Champ Clark” of Mis- souri for re-election as Speaker. On inquiry by the clerk, he for- mally nominated Clark, although saying he had not risen to do so| but .to explain his vote on the Speakership. Clark Election Close Clark was elected, 217 to 205 for Mann of Illinois, Republican, nom- inated by Lenroot, Wisconsin. Len- root received two votes, Gillett of Massachusetts two, and two mem- bers did not vote. ‘The Senate has had even closer party balances to contend with than it will know in the Seventy-second Congress. In the Forty-seventh Cengress, the Garfield-Arthur ad- ministration, it was tied, 37 Demo- crats, 37 Republicans and two in- BAZAAR Near Coliseum Theatre dependents.
