By JOSEPH L. MYLER United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Nov. 8 (U.P.).—Thé Democrats appeared assured of stronger control of the housé of representatives today with a gain of approximately 20 seats.

There were 93 undecided contests. ' The Republican lost five seats in Pennsylvania, four in Connecticut, three in New York, two in Illinois and ‘one each in Maryland, Kentucky, Minnesota, California, Missouri and Ohio. The 342 candidates definitely elected Included 202 Democrats 138 Republicans, one Progressive and one American Labor party member. The Democrats have 214 against 212 Republican seats in the present congress, and need at least 218 for a bare majority,

The Democrats lost another seat, in California, when Gordon L. MeDonough (R.) defeated Hal Styles (D.) for the seat which former Rep. John M. Costello (D.) lost to Mr. Styles in the primary election. The Démocrats shared in a notable victory but it will do them no good when, the house is organized. Augustus W. Bennet, nominee of the Démocratic, American Labor, Liberal and Good Government parties, defeated Republican incumbent Hamilton Fish Jr. (N, Y), a life- |p, long Republican. He will vote Republican in the house. Mr, Bennet

Cennors (D),- ° Incumbent Democrats generally were winning. Among closer races was that of Chairman Andrew J. May (Ky. of the military affairs committee, Incomplete returns showed him running behind Elmer E. Gabbard. Of the 435 members of the new house, three Republicans were elected in September, and five Republicans, 51 Democrats, mostly in the South, and one AmericanLabor. party candidate were unopposed.
