GOULD LINCOLN. Herbert Hoover is going into the ‘White House next March with the pros- pect of*a friendly Senate. This is true notwithstaiding the fact that Senator Norris of Nebraska and Senstor Blaine of Wisconsin came out flatly against his election and in favor of Gov. Al Smith, his Democratic opponent. The “old guard” is prepared to go along with the new administration, al- though some of its metfibers were in- clined te fight his nomination. The attitude of the progressive group jn th> Senate, with the exception of the two Senators mentioned, and perhaps Sena- tor Robert M. La Follette, jr., of Wis- consin, is inclined to be favorable. In- deed, there is a hopeful feeling among these progressive Republicans that Mr. Hoover is likely to prove a real pro- gressive Chief Executive. It is a feel- ing that bad no little to do with lining them up for the Republican nominee during the recent presidential campaign. Senator Borah of Idaho believes that Mr. Hoover will sho himself a true progressive. S0 strongly did he feel that this .would be the case, he took off his coat, figuratively speaking, and cam- paigned for Mr. Hoover as he has never i campaigned for any other presidential candidate. Brookhart of Iowa, Nye and Frazier of North Dakota, Norbeck of South Dakota, Howell of Nebraska and Hiram Johnson of €alifgrnia all cam- paigned for Mr.. Hoover.” These progressives say frankly that they have not gone over to the stand- pat wing of tife Republican party, bag and baggage, as has been intimated in some gquarters. Their support of Mr. Hoover is'not to be so interpreted, they-insist. <But they do look to Mr. Hoover for progressive leadership slong certain lines. Brockhart for Special Session. Senator ‘Brookhart of Icwa, who broke away from the Republican party to follow the late Senator La Follette of Wisconsin in his big adventure for the presidency four years ago, has just returned to Washington. He takes the view that Mr. Hoover will undertake to bring about a “progressive” farm re- lief law. . He does not believe that the coming short session of Congress can deal effectually with the farm problem, but that the subject will have to be handled in a special session, called by Mr. Hoover next Spring. He believes, too, that Mr. Hoover will deal in a progressive manner with the proposed St. Lawrence waterway, Boulder Dam and Muscle Shoals. Indced, he has high hopes of progressive measures, he says, from thé Hoover leadership. No one campaigned harder for Mr. Hoover than did Senator Brookhart. But he insists today that he has not changed one jota in his progressive Repub- licanism. The progressive group in the Senate has, generally speaking, been the back-~ bone of the anti-League of Nations—so far as the entrance of the United States into the League is concerned—senti- ment in the Senate. There is a strcng feeling among its members that Mr. Hoover’s _foreis icy will harmonize —for worry as to how fine household effects will fare in being Packed, Shipped and Stored when you utilize our facilities. .

The Republican gains in, the recent senatorial elections have | given the regulars a working majority. | the progressives are in sufficient mumber to make trouble in !'the Senate for the administration ii| they banded together and worked with | the Democrats against the administra tion measures. Therefore, the fact t many of the progressives are incline to be friendly to the Hoover admin tration is decidedly satisfactory to th> Republican leadership. What's to be done in regard to the recalcitrants, Senator Norris and Sen-| ator Blaine, who deserted their party| and supported Smith? Nothing has | been decided, but the impression i growing that no effort will be made to chastise them by taking away their | assignments as Republicans to Senate standing committees. Senator Norris is chairman of the important commit- tee on judiciary. Four years ago the Republicans, after electing President Coolidge, excluded the iate Senator La Follette and Senators Brookhart, Fra- zier and Ladd from party councils and denied them assignments to commit- tees as Republicans Since then Sen- ators La Follefte and Ladd have died and Senator Brookhart was invited back into the fold. If Scnator Norris and Senator Blaine continue to insist they are Republicans, the other Repub- lican members of the Senate are in- clined to let them go along. If there is to be any chastising, it will be left to the Reupblican voters of the States of Nebraska and Wiscensin at a later date. Same Problem With Both. Senator Edge of New Jersey, who a part in the disciplining of the Sc ators who bolted the Republican ticket and supported La Follette in 1924, dis- cussing the Norris and Blaine matter today, said: “Apparently both parties have the | same problem of dealing with "bolters “With Senators Simmons and Heflin | refusing to support Smith, and Norris and Blaine taking the same attitude | the days of Warren Fairbanks, a Sen- | to compel him to resign from the Sen- | that Senator Curti: Democratic candidaté, ana _ similar treatment wos dealt out to Simmons and Heflin by their colleagues, things would b2 even, at least so far as num- bers are concerned. “There being no third party in exist- ence, if action were taken in either or both cases there wouldn't be any other lace. for the party offenders to go. “According to the newspapers, Senator Norris was not even abie to persuade his family to follow him, and certainly | in the cas> of Wisconsin, Senator Blaine's bailiwick, the emphatic victory | for Hoover and Curlis ‘is sufficient evidence that the bolting was neither | contagious nor serious.” The Senate is providing a Vice Pres- ident and its own presiding officer in the | erson of Senator Charles Curtis of Kan- | several of the Republican Senators. He as. Senator Curtis is the first Sen- ator to be elected Vice President since ator formerly from Indiana, and elect- ed Vice President with President Roose- | velt. Senator Curtis has been one of | the most popular members of that body, | and as Republican leader has shown | real ability in getting things done. His | election to Vice President, with the| duty of presiding over the Secnate, should make the course of administra- tion legislation even more smooth in that body. | Curtis' Successor Discussed. Republican Senators as they arrive | in Washington for the Winter session of Congress are discussing the “possi- | bilities” - for Republican leader *when Senator Curtis steps out of the Senate. Senator Curtis himself has not an- nounced his plans. There is nothing ate. He could serve until March 4, when he will be inaugurated Vice Pres- ident. But he may wish to retire dur- ing the coming session and take a rest after his arduous campaigning. It has| been rumored he will take this step | early in January. It is not unnatural| should have an in- terest in his successor in the Senate.

If Senator Jones prefers not to take the leadership and | the duties which go with it, the field! is more open. Senator McNary of coauthor of the McNary-| Haugen farm bill. chairman of the} committee on agriculture, is well quali- | fied for the leadership and his name is being used in connection with it by has friendship of the Senators generally and is a good debater. Senator Borah of Idaho, chairman foreign relations committee, doubtless could have the leadership if he cared to take it, provided he does not go into the cabinet as Secretary of State. Senator Reed of Pennsyl- vania. Senator Watson of Indiana, who has been an assistant leader, and Senator Moses of New Hampshire aiso are mentioned as possibilities for leader. Senator Moses is president pro tempore of the Senate and is likely to be re-elected to that office, however. He is an excellent presiding officer. BODIES SENT TO PORT.
