tion, Democrats polled about 49.3
per cent of the total and the Re
publicans about 45 per cent.

I OLNEY, 111. (/P)—-Charles But

jug contained molasses.
‘The motor sure smelled sweet
but it didn’t work so good” But
ler said. Arriving home, he took
the truck to a garage for a mo
lasses change.

Demo. Control Of
Senate Could Be
Wiped Out
WASHINGTON, (JP) — A check
of ’recent history indicated today
the possibility that the thin Demo- !
cratic control of the new Senate
could be wiped out by the grim
factor which the military calls
attrition. There is a chance, too, i
that deaths and resignations will
widen out slender 49 to 47 margin
by which the Democrats expect j
to organize the new Senate in Jan- j
uary.
Senate records show 30 mem
bers of that body died in office
during the last six session—or 12
yeare. That is an average of five
Senators for each session. The fa
talities ranged from three to nine
for a session.
Tuesday’s elections trimmed the j
Democratic majority from 54 to 42 1
down to 47 to 47. Since Vice Pres
ident Barkley may vote whenever
the Senate is tied, Democrats
would retain control if the split
were 48 to 48.
Several times in recent years
the death or resignation of a Sen
ator has altered the party line-up.
A change does not result every
time there is a vacancy. This is
because such vacancies are filled
by the Governor of the State in
volved. Usually the Governor ap
points a loyal member of his own
party. Twenty years ago a similar
close division in the House result
ed in an overturn of control. In
1930 Republicans elected a slim
majority. But Congress in those
days did not meet until 13 months
after the election, and before it
convened enough deaths and sub
sequent Democratic victories in
special elections enabled them to
organize the House.
