Politics May Prove Lodestone in Session of the New Congress
Washington reads the opening of the Sixty-ninth Congress as a clash of plans. Republicans push a program to win votes for majorities in 1926, while Democrats highlight administration shortcomings. The Senate looms with fewer obstructions for speeches, the House likely to log many remarks as records. Thirty seats are contested in the elections, with 26 Republicans up for reelection and seven Democrats in solidly Democratic Southern states. Notables include William M. Butler, Charles Curtis, and James E. Watson shaping the battle lines.
