Senator Cummins plans to call the senate to order next Monday and to preside until ; the senate has elected his successor. Will Net liaise Issue Republican leaders have made it clear that: they do not propose to raise the issue of the selection of a president, leaving to the De mocrats or the Progressives bloc the initiative in launching a con test. Parliamentarians say a motion to proceed to the election of a president would be a highly privi leged one and would have to be entertained by the presiding of. ficer. If the senate votes in favor of an election, present expecta tions are that three candidates will be placed in nomination, one by the Republican organization, one by the Democrats and one by the Progressive bloc. The gen eral belief is that none of the candidates could command a ma jority and that a deadlock would ensue. j ' j ' if It became known today that the "decision of the Republican leaders to leave the presidency in status quo was reached at the conference called yesterday by Senator Lodge of Masaachaaetta after his visit to PresidenL-CooUdge at ..the White House.
