244 DEMOCRATS

2 Missouri Seats, 1 in Pennsylvania, 1 in Cali- ° fornia Undecided.

WASHINGTON, "Nov, 14 (U, P). —Unseating of an additional Republican representative by a DemaGcrat in Missouri. appeared today to have assured the Democratic party of having at least 244 members of the house when the 70th congress convenes in January, Four house seats still were undecided—two in Missouri, one In California and one in Pennsylvania. Also on the yet-to-be-decided list was a senate seat from Missouri, in a race which probably. will not be decided definitely until all soldier votes are counted. A partial count of service votes since last Friday had whittled from 9000 to 4000 votes the lead of Republican Forrest C. Donnell over Democrat Roy McKittrick.

2 Apparently Decided

Four Missouri congressional races had been listed as undecided pending a count of service ballots, but two apparently have been decided. Those were In the state's 1st district, where Republican incumbent Rep. 8. W. Arnold had defeated Democrat Edward M. Jaynes, and the 8th district, where Democrat A. 8. J, Carnahan had unseated Republican Rep, William C. Elmer. The 2d and 3d district races still were on the doubtful list, On the basis of the two Missouri congressional races having been decided, the house of representatives of the. 79th congress now lines up like this:

Democrats, 344. Republicans, 188, Progressive, 1. American Labor, 1. Undecided, 4.

Senate Race in Pa. One other senate race in addition decided—the contest in Pennsyl-

{that state's estimated 210,000 soluss, | dier votes starting Nov. 22, Mr, as, | Myers. holds a lead of about 23,000. A Republican trend in the service ballots could, of course, dissipate that lead. As it now stands, the senate of the 79th congress will line up as follows:
