In the U.S. Democratic Senators will replace Republicans in Massachusetts, West Virginia, Ohio, Minnesota, Oklahoma, and Colorado, while only in Iowa, where a Senator won six years ago on a fluke, did the Democrats lose a seat. The Republican majority of 163 in the present House is cut almost to nothing, and may be wiped out. Even if the Republicans carried most of the unreported districts, their grip on the House would be very shaky, and the U.S. President Herbert Clark Hoover during his last two years will certainly face a Congress in neither branch of which can he count on a dependable majority.
