D. R. Opinion • Washington, D. C TP—A cheek of the new Senate lineup showed today that President Roos evelt can count on a working ma jority in the Upper House in al most every instance. The lineup Indicated that It would take the most unusual cir cumstances to endanger the Dem ocratic majority, and even then the vote would be close. It was relieved that it would take some tradition-shaking reform, such as the Supreme Court proposal, to threaten the effective Democratic majority The lineup for the nest session will be 68 Democrats. 24 Repub licans, one Progressive two Far- mer-Laborites and liberal indepen dent Republican. In the Democratic primary, nine cannot be considered too friendly toward the President. In addition, there will be 10 Democratic senators known to have strong conservative tenden cies and two who have moderate ly conservative tendencies. The check showed that it would take a lineup of all these groups before the opposition would be a bare majority of one in the Senate. \The'Republicans 'plus the 10 conservatives; plus the nine Demo crats regarded as anti-New Deal plus the four senators from minor parties and the two moderate con servative Democrats total only 49 votes. This represents a bare ma jority in the-Senate. However, the four minor party members are senators who more often vote with the President than against him. The independent Republican Senator Norris is con sidered one of the strongest New Dealers despite his party label. President Roosevelt's belief that Republican gains in the elec tion would not endanger the Ad ministration's legislative program was shared by House and Senate Democratic leaders today Leaders said they believed that tho Democratic majority in Con gress would be more inclined to stand by the party in the face of stronger opposition. Democratic leaders said they had no fear o f a coalition of Republicans, Independents and anti-New Deal Democrats.
