Eisenhower prob- ably will depend upon bipartisan support to put through many of his policies, . This support, is likely to get. While the general was winning with a landslide vote Tuesday, his supporters fought bitterly and in some cases neck and neck for seats in the 83rd Congress, which will consider major international and domestic problems next year. Eight congressional races went into vote-by-vote counting. with at | least three of them dependent upon | absentee ballots from throughout |the world, including Korea. In some close races, defeated candi- dates have indicated they may con- test the outcome. Complete Senate returns gave the Republicans 48 seats and the Democrats 47. Sen. Wayne Morse of Oregon, who resigned from the | Republican party to support. Gov. | Stevenson, was listed as an inde- |pendant with possibly a decisive vote. | The Democrats held a 49-47 edge in the 82nd Congress. In the last Republican-controlled 80th gress of 1947, the GOP had a 51-45 advantage in the Senate. Republicans Tuesday won 220 | House seats, two more than neces- sary for control. The Democrats | took 206 but one of these became vacant with the death last night of Rep. Sabath (D-Il), dean of the | House, who had just been elected to his 24th consecutive term, A House vacaney can be filled only [by a special election. One independent who usually votes with the Democrats was re- elected, and Democrats were lead- ing in all eight undecided districts. The Democrats held 232 House seats in the last Congress, but this advantage was largely nullified by an anti-Truman voting coalition of Republicans and Southern Demo- | erats, In 1947, the Republicans trolled the House by a 245-188 mar- gin, with one vacancy , American Labor party member. The victory gives the GOP a vo- ting edge, particularly if Southern Democratic support cont s, but the Republicans will gain greater power by controlling committee | chairmanships and other top pos- itions in both houses. From these posts, GOP leaders can direct the progress of legislation. Congress faces basic decisions on how much money to spend on foreign aid and the mili tary buildup, whether to continue the present high tax rates and what to do about expiring wage and price controls, Many of the top Republicans in Congress favored reducing the na tion’s foreign commitments below the minimum that Gen, Eisenhow- er, before his nomination, said was safe. The Republicans captured the 35 Senate seats at stake, with the Democrats winning 12. This was a net GOP gain of two seats. Four incumbent Republicans were beaten—Henry Cabot Lodge Jr. of Massachusetts, who was Eisenhower's preconvention cam- paign manager; James P.Kem of Missouri; Harry Cain of Washing ton and Zales Ecton of Montana But 11 members of the Republi can “Class of 1946’’—prominent in the last GOP Senate victory—sur- vived. They included Sens. Joseph R, McCarthy of Wisconsin and Wil liam E. Jenner of Indiana, who drew heavy Democratic fire dur- ing the campaign. Four Democ senators also were overturned—Ernest McFar land of Arizona, the majority lead er; the veteran Joseph O' Mah of Wyoming; William Ben of Connecticut and Thomas Under wood Kentucky, Morse eme Senate's most c because he he will vote.
