The GOP could use his vote. Control of the two houses of Congress is important because it determines which party will elect! committee majorities and chair- j men. Although the GOP lacks one vote i for a Senate majority it is assured of control, at least after Jan. 20. | because Vice President-elect Rich- I aid M. Nixon then will be able | , to vote In case of ties. Thereafter, the Republicans will, j j be dependent on Democratic help j i to offset normal losses from their i own ranks on key votes. Eisen- , bower’s legislative lieutenants are I expected to try to develop a work- I ing arrangement with conservative southern Democrats who have ] often voted with the GOP in the j past in an informal coalition. However, minority statutes usual- j ly has a unifying effect on a party I even one which has been as badly | divided as the Democrats for the j j past 14 years. MCFARLAND DEFEATED The chief Democratic casualty j i Tuesday was Sen. Ernest W. Me- ■; 5 Farland of Arizona, majority floor j j leader for the past two years. | j Elected to replace former Sen. 6 SjCbtfc W. Lucas of Illinois. Me- , T Farland was the second Senate j Democratic leader to be defeated in successive Congressional elec tions. Sen. John J. Sparkman (D-Ala.V defeated vice presidential nominee is one possibility for the job of Democratic floor leader next year, although Sen. Richard B. Russell iD-Gau, could have it if he wanted it. On the Republican side, the floor leader is Sen. Stvle Bridges of New Hampshire, who took the post 1 in 1951, saying he wanted it for only two years. Bridges, who prob ably will be chairman of the Ap propriations Committee, will have a high priority claim on the job of president pro tempore of the , Senate if he wants it. In the House. Republican Lead er Joseph W. Martin Jr., of Massa chusetts. is in line for the speaker ship. Rep. Charles A. Halleck of Indaina probably will succeed to the GOP floor leader job which he held during Martin's 1947-49 speakership. On the Democratic side, retiring Sneaker Sam Rayburn of Texas is the probable choice for party floor leader if he will take the job. l ■ Jury Trials (Continued From Page Onp) this morning, failed to appear, when called to answer the charges and a capias was ordered issued for each defendant.

The record was set in 1928 by Seawell’s father, who piled up 289.415. Governor-elect Umstead said he believes the Republican gains both J in North Carolina and elsewhere j in the South are "largely tempor ary.” "I don’t believe it indicates any i substantial increase in the Repub- J lican strength in the South,” he ; said. Seawell. the loser, said he thinks Dwight Eisenhower’s success in the South is due to "personal pop* ularity." He said he thinks the South will eventually have a two- j party system but “the Republicans can’t build it themselves. It will have to be done by the Democrats and Independents." The Carthage lawyer said he thinks that if a single leading North Carolina Democrat had been willing to back Eisenhower, the ' general would have carried the state. “Sen. Willis Smith almost did it But not quite," said Seawell. "I wired Smith to put his voice where his heart was. If he had. North Carolina might have gone for Ike.” SMITH HITS RADICALS Smith himself said the eledtion was "a disappointment to those who supported the entire Demo cratic ticket.” He said he thinks the election appears “to reflect the objection of our people to Trumanism” and "we shuold de vote ourselves to preventing the radical elements from assuming control of the party." Gov. Kerr Scott said he saw nothing significant" in the Rep ublican vote in the South. Scott said "oil” was responsible for the large GOP turnout in Texas and Louisiana but "I just don’t know” what caused the Republican victory in Virginia. "I was satisfied with the showing of the Democrats in North Caro lina,” Scott added. "The Republi -1 can vote was just what it generally is.” RALEY ENCOURAGED State Republican Chairman James M. Baley said he was en couraged by the "better” Repub lican showing. "I believe it will make the beginnings of the two party system in Nortr. Carolina,” Baley said. Scott dismissed such claims. He said, "I always thought we had a two-party system.” Seawell said no one can talk about a two-party system in the , state when the Republicans have no organization in eastern North Carolina. "I the state were divided at Raleigh, we would have an op i portunity to elect a Republican governor,” he said. IN HOSPITAL Mrs. Paul L.
