OLD GUARD HEtD TO BE IN FULL SENATE CONTROL Progressive Republicans-Are De dared Too Few to Offer Any : Opposition to Reactionaries. Washington, Nov.-, 13. (WASH INGTON BUREAU' OF THE JOUR NaL. j Inspection of the Redlgrees and proclWltles of new senators lected In the Republican sweep, discourages the idea that the pro gressive Republicans will have enough members to organize any ef fective opposition to reactionary "plan's iider the Harding adminis tration. New alignments may read ily arise, but on the face of things, .Penrose, Lodgi and Brandegee will .be able to enforce discipline and carry things' about as they wish, I The conservative leaders have iio 'anxiety about the house. The majority Is so largo Uiat everybody would mar fvel if insurgency made any great head--way for some time to come. Their only concern was the senate, where it was : feared '. that the militant progressives, i led by Johnson and Borah, plus La Kol--lette and Ladd, the latter the new sen .' ator from North Dakota, who may act "as free lances,, would upset the deal. Wlth a 22 majority In the' senate this ; danger Is thought to be removed, for j nly eight senators are 'definitely count ; ed in the progressive ftnd free lance : group. r JITTABT CarjTTED PR06EESSITE i. In addition to La Follette and Ladd, .' this reckoning Includes Johnson of Cali fornia, Borah of Idaho, Kenyon of Iowa, Capper of Kansas, Norris of Ne ; braska and - McNary , of Oregon. These. : senators, by their past records, i are against the kind of reactionary legisla tion favored by Penrose, in deallpg, for example, with taxation questions and 'the packers. They may have help; ce il caslonally from other senators, jbut against such defections Penrose usually ; can count a email quota of reactionary "Democrats, and thus his hold seems fairly secure. ; ''", j. ' ' Cummins of -Iowa, McCormick of lllli nols and Poindexter of Washington for- merly were counted as progressives,! but ' that is no longer true. ,Thcy have fal len in line In the last few years 1 and S are probably . about . as dependable for 'Penrose as the old standby s have been. . The only danger to-the Penrose clique is ? In another group of senators of lnde : pendent mind,: who do not take orders I Indiscriminately, such as Townsend of , Michigan, Nelson and Kellogg of Minne sota, Hale of Mains and some of the 4 new Westerners, who are to be "broken In" after they appear' here. j ST AX FIELD AMONG KELIABLES Reports concerning the new senators ' for the most part indicate that they' will play "follow, the leader" without much ( question, with a fw possible exceptions. Khortrldge of California, Gooding of - Idaho, Stanfield of Oregon, Ernst of "Kentucky, Nfcholson of Colorado i and McKinley of Illinois, to name only a few, I are counted as reliables for the domi , rant organizations. ' ' ' i : These alignments, of course, have no reference to the League of Nations, on which a different division appears, the ; most rampant progressives being: also the most rampant bitfer-enders. On' the league question, the Irreooncllables have a minimum- strength tf 24, and a po tential strength much greater, with only 33 votes needed to block ratification of any agreement to which they, do not , subscribe. , Postponed, bonus legislation of the late war will be one problems confronting y. the s Republican majority in conrress when the session is resumed IB December. The house passed a bill just before adjournment in June, but it received no consideration on the senate side.; ; j This presents a real difficulty, because of the expenditure of .nearly two bil lions of dollars involved. Under the house plan It is not proposed !to pay all of this sum at once, but if extended over two years the addition of this amount to the budget is a cause for concern at a time when the party com ing Into power made tax reduction one of its claims for popular support. ; HABDI3G NOT SPECIFIC j i President-elect Harding has not ex pressed himself on the bonus except in the most general terms. He has talked about dealing generously with the men who fought the, war, but no one has attempted to say that by this he meant the payment of the bonus. He has, on the other hand, been Inclined to oppose federal land settlement legislation, 5Tffts Emergency Fleet's Employes Gather; Body Is Permanent Planning to perpetuate the friendship formed in service for the government during the war, employes and ex-employes of the Emergency Fleet corpora tion gathered Thursday evening at the Automobile club and perfected a per manent, organization. During the war an organisation of fleet" corporation employes was formed, but this was only for employes. The by-laws were amended to permit per manency of the club and the admis sion of former employes to the - ranks. An invitation was extended to all employes and -110 answered the call, assembling at the Northwestern Na tional Bank building at 4 o'clock.

The fu ture organisation will probably have Strong opposition appeared to that part of the plan in the house, and it . was only retained after Western members had exerted themselves to the utmost. The election is believed to have given impetus to the soldier bonus movement. State bonus plans were submitted to the people in. several states and they appear everywhere to have ' carried by enormous majorities. ' NEW YORK FAVORS IT f In New York state the majority for it is estimated over 1,000,000. the New York' city voters alone' approving It by 400.000. ; The New York law will give each man $10 a month for each month of service, not exceeding f 250, and it w-ill include all the men who went to war from New York up to the rank of jcaptaln, probably 400,000 in all. Washington also voted affirmatively on the soldiers' bonus. The senate finance committee has the bonus ' bill at present, and Chairman Penrose will be 4aked to take it up Immediately. The committee i.will de cide whether further hearings should be held, the house having held exten sive hearings last spring. Penrose is not believed to be' enthusiastic about it and the course of the measure will 'be watched with interest. Penrose is un derstood tq dislike the land settlement feature, and members Of the committee have said that the house bill would have to -be entirely recasted before it can pass the senate. - j ' In the end It seems likely that some thing in. the way of additional compen 250 members. J. W. Hall, chief of the wood ship construction division, was elected presi dent of the meeting, and Ray B. Hil lier, chief clerk of the construction and repair department, secretary-treasurer. During the evening talks were made by. C L. Florence, L. J. Wentworth, J. W. Hall and M. E. and C. L. Reed.- Officers Elected By Sons of Eli And Cubs of Tiger The sons of Eli and the cubs of the Tiger met at a luncheon at the Uni versity club Saturday afternoon to re ceive the returns from the Yale-Prince, ton game by special wire. Immediately after the last cheer hacl rung out the two bodies adjourned for the election of officers. The - men of the Yale Alumni Association of Oregon elected Hopkin Jenkins, president ; Rob ert H. Noyes, vice president, and Thornton H. Hunger, secretary. The Princeton Alumni Association of Oregon was organized and elected J. F. Ewing. president; G. M. Uptegrove, vice president; Philip L.

Winch to act with the oth sion, and It may be In very different form from the pending bill. Further postponement Is expected to meet with vigorous protest from the American Legion, and other organizations, but the plea of the leaders is that with all the appropriation measures and emergency matters pressing upon the short session, the time is too short for general legis lation Involving expenditures of such magnitude.; Arno Dosch Fleurot To Deliver Lecture On Bolshevik Rule "Koyal Friend" to Be Shown at Little Due to the inability to secure proper scenery, the four-act drama, "A Royal Friend." will be played at the Little Theatre, Twenty-third and Washington streets, Instead of at the Lincoln high school auditorium.

Store Gives Tickets To 2500 Employes Two ' thousand five hundred tickets were presented- by the Meier A Frank company to Its employes that they might attend the stock show today. Chief of Police Leo V. Jenkins will reconynend to Mayor Baker that Patrolmen Huntington and Russell be suspended from the police force for 30 days, according to an an nouncement made last night. Chief Jenkins came to this decision after considering the return of the effi ciency board, which completed Its hear ing of the investigation of whiskey graft charges against the two patrolmen last evening. Jenkins said last night that in al! probability he would recommend a permanent dismissal from the force for the two men. Under civil service regulations, no pa trolman who has been, on the force for over six years can be.suspended for more than 30 days without the approval of the civil service, commission. Since both patrolmen .come under this provision, the term is limited to SO days. Official action will not be taken until Monday morning when the recommenda tion of the chief .Is forwarded to the mayor. . . ' - ' . ' MAYOR WILL ACT' Mayor Baker said last night that he had not received the chiefs recommenda tion yet. He stated that upon receipt! of such a recommendation, he will give the two men a hearing and investigate all the evidence in the case. He is re quired to do this by the civil service: regulations. If the chief recommends permanent dismissal and if he .finds the evidence in the case warranting such ac-' tion, he is in a position to act at once. The men then have the right to appeal! his decision to the civil service board. The mayor stated last night that he was out to clean up the town, regardless of rank or position of the victims. "The higher they are the better." said, the mayor. "We have been watching: things closely for some time and we are preparing to act" POL1CEMEX MAKE ADMISSION Huntington and Russell are said to .have admitted to the police efficiency board, which has been investigating; charges s gainst them, that they agreed! to pay off "Johnny" Marshall, a stool: pigeon in their service, with confiscated whiskey. 1 The whiskey, which Was taken In a raid on the home of William Gilbert and Lewis Emera, was placed In Sergeant Ellis' office at police headquarters.' Gil-j bert and Emera testified that 33 qUarts were confiscated. The property clerk in checking over the amount turned lp to him found only 15 quarts. ! Sergeant Ellis claims that he did not know how much whiskey was taken la the raid or how much was placed in his office after "the raid. He says that if there was an understanding that the stool pigeon was to receive his pay in whiskey, he knew nothing of It at alL He testified to all of these acts before the board, according to members at the hearing.
