Nazi broadcasts insisted, how
ever, that "there can be no talk
of a breach of the German-Italian
front" by British troops and
asserted that despite British su
periority in numbers, axis troops
were putting up the "fiercest"
resistance.
Gen. George von Stumme,
: .Rommel's second in command,
was reported killed in action by
the British.
Reinforcements Rushed
The British radio hammered
the story home to the peoples of
t Germany, Italy and the conquer
' ed countries with broadcast after
broadcast In many tongues.
, Dispatches from Greece said
the Germans were frantically
. rushing three or four divisions
from the Russian front in an at
tempt to reinforce Rommel's bat
tered legions. Four trainloads
of nazi troops were said to have
passed through Athens en route
to embarkation points.
Half Tanks Destroyed
Allied fliers told of enemy
troops "scattering like cock

Dispatches said the Italians
had asked for a truce in one sec

More than half of Rommel's
tanks were reported to have
been destroyed in the climactic
break-through as Lieut-Gen. B.

by American -made General
Grant and General Lee tanks,

Lumber Freezing Balls
Up Bridge Construction
PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 5 (ff)
Lumber for two small bridges
to connect Portland's 33d ave
nue with the Vancouver ferry
terminal has been frozen twice,
unfrozen once and locked up in
one jurisdictional labor dispute.
So said Lindstrom Bros., con
tractors, to the state highway
commission' today in asking that
they be released from the con
tract.
The commission said delay in
the bridge construction is hold
ing up the Sunderland avenue
improvement job which, in
turn, is delaying installation of
bus service to the Ferry term
inal. Lack of this bus service
is delaying the operation of a
second ferry, the board was
told.

BOISE, Ida., Nov. 5 UP) The
days when knowledge of elec

men on horseback brought in
the tallies from scattered pre
cincts appeared to be coming
back today in Idaho's guberna
torial race.
With congressional Incum

Chase A. Clark, democrat, was
leading his republican opponent,
former Gov. C. A. Bottolfsen, by
only 147 votes with 33 of the
state's 843 precincts unreported.
Because of blocked roads In
Idaho county and poor telephone
facilities in other Isolated dis

peared unlikely to be completed.

fused the Lindstrom request and
decided to seek further methods
to release the lumber which
first was frozen by a war board
order, then released but almost
Immediately frozen again. One
company prepared to deliver
some of it in spite of tho freezo
but AFL workmen refused to
handle it because it had prev
iously been handled by CIO
men.. '
The board received only three
bids on eight rock production
jobs.
Said Commission Chairman
Henry F. Cabell: '"This is the
first time in all the years I've
been on the commission that
we haven't had a construction
job up for letting. These are
all maintenance jobs and now
we can't get bids on them. I

The board suggested to coun

new senate seats without losing
one to the democrats, and tho
latter had lost eight. Independ
ent George W. Norris, Nebraska,
also lost out to a republican,
Kenneth S. Wherry.
Lone Progressive
With only one senate contest
outstanding,, that between Sena
tor Murray (DrMont.) and Wel
lington D. Rankin, (R), the re
publicans had gained nine new
senate scats without losing one
to the democrats, and the latlur
had lost eight. Independent
George W. Norris, Nebraska,
also lost out to a republican,
Kenneth S. Wherry.
The democrats elected 15,
which with 41 holdovers, gave
them a total of 56 in the new
senato starting January 3. Re
publicans elected 18 and with
20 incumbents not up for re
election gave them a total of
SB. The senate's lone progres
sive, LaFollette of Wisconsin,
was not up this year.
17 OOP Governors
This democratic majority of
IT or plurality of 18 over the
republicans compares with an
existing majority of 34 or plu
rality of 30. Lowest majority
in recent years was in 1933
when the division was 69 dem
ocrats and 36 republicans.
Highest was In 1937 when it
was 78 democrat to 17 repub
licans. Of the 33 governorships at
stake, Including that in Maine
which elected September 14, tho
republicans won 17, the demo
crats 13, and progressives one.
Two were still in doubt In
Idaho and Wyoming. Counting
holdovers, the democrats now
will have at least 33 governors,
the republicans 33, and pro
gressives one.
New Deal Losses
Technically of course the
democrats retained control of
both houses of congress. How
ever, dependable working ma
jorities cannot bo counted on
by the administration at all
times when it is considered that
parly members do not vote sol
idly, particularly on domestic
questions.
Besides the veteran Norris,
the new deal lost in the elec
tions such supporters as Sena
tors Herring of Iowa, Lee of
Oklahoma, Brown of Michigan,
Smathers of New Jersey, and
Schwartz of Wyoming. Other
democratic seats won by the
republicans were In Delaware,
West Virginia and South Dako
ta. The reelection of Senator A.
B. (Happy) Chandler (DKy.)
over Richard J. Colbert, repub
lican, had an aftermath In a
charge by Dr. O. F. Hume, re
publican national committee
man from Kentucky, that there
was "ample evidence of whole
sale fraud and corruption" in
