Republicans Show Gain In National Vote Sizeable Inroads Made On Democrat Strength In U. S. illy I'nited Pre«s> The Republican party has made sizeable inroads on Democratic I strength In congressional anti gubernatorial contests throughout the. country. Incomplete returns show that the I G.O.P. stands to increase its senatorial strength by possibly II seats., and its cogreasioal bloc by 2" or more Likewise, the Republicans made a strong showing in the gubernatorial elections, winning luir and leading in ten others, some of which, however, are ex< eedingly i close. The outstanding devel pmont from a national viewpoint was the smashing triumph turned in by the Republican racket-buster. Thomas K. Dewey, who was elected governor if New York. Deweya triumph, the iirst G.O.P I victory In New York in 20 years. I gives him a headstart in the race for the Republican presidential nomination in Ibtt The defeat of attorney general John J Bennett may eliminate from the political arena his chief sponsor. wtate Democratic chairman Farley, and give the new deal-Dem-ocratic coalition in New York a chance to take over the state organization now controlled by Parley In any event, the outcome of the New York gubernatorial race is expected to play a major rile in the 1944 campaign. Outside of New York, the Republicans won another governorship in Connecticut and are leading in Idaho. Michigan and California, where Democrats now hold office. Among the cutwtandlng senator lai results is the apparent defeat of the veteran Nebraska independent Senator George W Norris , who had the bac king of President !
