Xew York, Nov. 9.—(By The A. P.)— At 1 a. m. today on returns in the con- gressional _elections, the republicans had 216 seats In the housc of representatives, the democrats 204, socialist 1, and inde- Sefdent 1. The republicans needed only wo out of the 13 districts unreported tg retaain control Republican casualties which beoke with the first returns yesterda§. defeating Gov ernor Miller and Senator Calder of New Tork, continued with somewhat lessened force today as returns dribbled in. They told of furthce republican losses in the wenate and house, and governors and state legislatures, although the belated songressional results were somewhat more favorable to the republicans. Among the additional republican stal- warts who went down to defeat definitely Loday on additional returns were Senator Kellogs of Minnesota, beaten by Dr. Hendrik Shipstead. farmer-laborite, and Senator Townsend of Michigan, the latter lasing to former Governor Woodbridge ) Forris, the first defnocratic senator to be eiested from Michigan in 70 years. Als definitely defeated by Senator Kendrick, democrat. was Revresentative Mondell of Wyoming, republican floor leader. who aspired 1o the senate. Delay in the house results, because of the keen contest, has not been paralleled wince 13i6. A number of missing dis- tricts are in far western states. In others received today the early announce- ments were changed. The democrats con- tinued their gains, securing 67 seats at Jatest figures, principally from New York, Obio, Missour], New. Jersey and Okla- homs. As against this demooratic ‘sweep, the republicans failed to unseat a ‘single sitting democrat. Sesator Lodge of Massachusetts, it finally turned out, had a plurality of $435 over his democratic opponent. Co! onel Gaston, instead of the meagre 1.945 reported early in’the day. Through a ‘thansposition of fizures in The Associated Préss tabulation, Senator Lodge's plural- ity was shown as being reduced to 1,945, and other mews distributing ‘agencies in fome manner arrived at the same figures. Loss of cortrol of the menato by the republicans was not threatened, although they suffered a net loss of six. Bight re- publican senators weee defeatéd, but this the party countered by defeating two Aemocratic senators, Hitechoock of braska and Pomerene of Ohlo. The r publicans had carried 11 and democrats 19 of the 35 senatorial contests. Of the five stll in the balance, democrats were leading in all—Montana, Utah, New Slexico, West Virginia and Washinfton. - Tn the last named the race between Sen- ator Poindexter. republican, and former Representative Dill was so colse that it was thought an official coint would be nesded to fix the outcome. Another re- count forecast was in Texas, where Te- publicans ai®ounced that they would sometst the election of Earle B. Mayfield, democrat. who had Ku Kiux Klan en- worsement,.but this would be based on a caim of a defective nomination rather than & question of the count of votes. REPUBLICAN, MAJORITY IN U. 8. SENATE REDUCED TO 12 —— e Washington, Nov. 8 (By the A, P.)— The election results are due to work & -onsiderable upheaval in . the senate, probably in ieadership and certainly in important committee posts, despite con- imued republican control. . Primarily the present republican ma- jority of 24 iz reduced to probably 13, As. compared with the existing lineup of &0 republicans and 3¢ democrats. Re- vublican leaders have sald they would weicoms a somewhat reduced and mo: sohesi¢e majority. They get’the reduc tion but enhanced cohesiveness was de- red to be questionable in view of the slection of what have been termed rad: ical, progressive, or liberal members, Both parties lose powerful veterans and securs strong ,adhesions, defeat ot Senators Kellogg, of Minnesota, Fre. candidate, seif prociaimed. dryer than himself. This fact often was_ overlooked by those who professed to see in the de- feat of Volstead a punisiiment of the dry law. While they had been expected to take & big hand in 'the election, the women of the country were unable to elect one of their number in the Melter skelter race for seats. There will be no omen in the next' congress. Alice Robertson, of Ok- lahoma, will go out then, along with Win- nifred Mason Huck, af Illinois. elect2d vesterday to fill the term of her father, the late Willlam E. Mason, expiring next March. Mondell, for the last four years, the republican leader in the house, aspiring for a seat in the senate from Wyoming, went down in a vain race for the senate and a new leader will rise in his place. Speaker Gillett, and Mann, and Madden— all the big committee chairmen, in fact, save Volstead, held their seats, Most of them never in danger. Every republican leader of the house has, often declared during the last two years that the majority—around 170 at the start—was too big, but none expected to see it cut 5o low, and none seemed (o fear it would be cut below forty. Only in Towa were the Tepublicans able to send back a solid delegation. In oth- er states delegations were shot to pieces, both Indiana and Ohio solid hretofore, breaking up. New Jersey and Maryland cach gave a fifty-fifty beak to the demo- crats, but it was the big New York over- turn that cheered the minority. The old district of William McKinley. in Ohio was captured by a democrat. Champ Clark’s district taken from him two years ago just before his death, ‘drifted back to the democrats. . Cordell Hull, of. Tennessee, author of the income tax law and now chairman of the democratic national committee, was among the democrats who came back. Henry T.

For the first time, the farmer-labor party will make an appearance on 'the | 8T wenate floor by the election of Dr. Hi drik Shipstead of Minnesota, victor over Senator Kellogs. $ Many important” committee Vacancies, baving a deep effect on legislation, must follow the will of the electorate. -The finance committee, in charge of tariff and tax legislation, loses Senaters Cal- der, Frelinghuysen and possibly’ Suther- fand, while the interstate commerce committee, expected to deal with the \ransportation act and the Adamson tight-hour law, together with Ahe rail- way labor bodrd, loses thres members, Senators Townsend and Kellgg, repub. lieans, ‘afid Senator ™ Pomerene, demo™ srat.

P)—The report of the experts who have been in- vestigating cconomic conditions in Ger- many, Professors: Keynes, Drand, Jenks and Cassel, advocates a two Sears’ moratorium f{rom reparations Dayments of cash or In kind and stabili- zation of the mark on the basis of 3,000 to 3,500 marks to the dollar by u lizing the reichsbank’s gold reserve, The re. port contends- that the ‘financial prob- lem cannot be solved unless the mark is stabilized, and, that stabilization would by impossible without & mora- torium. The experts suggest that half the reichsbank's gold wouid “suffice, J should be devated to re‘purcnase paper marks, the re-purchases to_be réstricted to German bank notes, especially those in foreign possession, but ‘excluding’ ex- chequer bills, The moratorium might need to be ex- tended, and payments <hould not be re- sumed until Germany is ‘able fo dis- charge them from a real hudzet sur. plus, which the experts think may be attainable in two years. Thus stabili- ation. would depend for success not on @ foreign loan, dut on development of the -conditions of production and final settlement of tha reparations groblem. They consider<thut neir' plans would be facilitated 1t in the meantime nego j tiations ‘were started with a consortism of bunkers to support stabilization by modest credits, and also. that a foreigu loan cannot be expected until the rep- arations problem is fnally - settled. Regarding an unfavorable trade bal- ance,. the experts state that - statistics at present available cannot form ground for adequate judgment agd that Ger- many should have cqual rights witn other natipns to impose customs duties on luxuries and the right to demand the most favored naticn treatment as re- gards exports.
