(By Associated Press)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 8. - United
in seeking a return of prosperity,
national party leaders returned to
the business today of trying to find
out who won congressional control
in Tuesday's biennial election.
Republicans and Democrats both
were determined to fight it out to
the last vote in the last precinct
and it was obvious tonight the act-
ual controlling party of the next
Senate and House probably will
not be determined until the closely
divided membership meets a year
hence.
Control Doubtful.
The final but unofficial returns
left the Republicans with a major-
ity of one in both the House and
Senate and the leaders were pre-
pared to seek control again on
these standings. It was entirely
possible that two or three votes in
one district might settle the whole
issue for the House.
But with the session such a long
way off, unless a special session is
called next spring, it' was agreed
on all sides that it is too early to
speculate. Party chieftains were
checking over recounts in more
than a score of closely contested

(By Associated Press)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 8.-Any
forecast of what the- law enforce-
ment commiassion may recommend
in its forthcoming report on prohi-
bition were described by Chairman
Wickersham today as "purely con-
jectural."
At the same time he said the
commission had reached no con-
clusions which were ready for pub-!
lication and that it could 'not say
when the report will be submitted.
The revival of a rumor that the
commission would recommend a!
modification of the prohibition laws
to permit the sale of 2.75 beer today
caused a heavy increase in inquiries
made at the headquarters of the
commission,
Wickersham's statement was is-
sued at the close of the day but
previously Judge Kenneth Macin-
tosh, a commission member, had
described the report as a "guess."
PARTIES TO SPLIT
ON WET-DRY ISSUE,
CUNCANNON HOLDS
Political Scientist Prophesies
Republicans Will Uphold
Prohibition Cause.
CITES DRY MAJORITIES
Expects Revival of Business in
1932; Sees Roosevelt as
Hoover's Opponent.
Predicting that the Democratic
party in 1932 will take the wet, side
in the national battle, and that the
Republicans will defend the 18th
Amendment, Prof. Paul M. Cuncan-
non, of the political science depart-
ment, yesterday discussed the re-
sults of Tuesday's election over
Station WJR from the University
studio.
In Illinois and New York, he said,
the Republicans moved to theiwet
side and were gloriously trounced,
while in Pennsylvania they stood
by thei'r guns for the Prohibition
amendment, and in the face of a
terrific attack, were victorious.
Depression Aids Democrats.
Although the tide of the election
ran swiftly toward, the Democratic
party and toward the wets, there
is no reason to believe that the
Democrats will easily elect a Presi-
dent in 1932, and that the days of
prohibition are numbered, he said.
"The Republicans suffered in 1930
from the business. depression, and
from a certain impatience with the
President because he has failed to
display a vigorous political leader-
ship," he said. The possilbilities,
Professor Cuncannon stated, are
that business will pick up by 1932,
and that the President will realize
that in dealing with the next two
Congresses, he must vigorously lead
the way
It appears that manyrNovembers
will come and go before there is
any change in prohibition, he said,
pointing out that two-thirdshvote in
both houses of the Congress are
necessary to repeal the 18th amend-
inent, and that at present the drys
outnumber the wets in the House
more than two to one, and in the
Senate more than four to one.
Names Presidential Nominees.
President Hoover and Gov. Frank-
lin Roosevelt, of New York state,
wi1l probably oppose each other in
the presidentilal election in 1932,
with the odds slightly favoring the
President, Professor Cuncannon
predicted. He pointed out that "this
seems to be one of those rare peri-
ods in American politics when you
can predict with a fair degree of
accuracy the nominees of thertwo
rival parties two years in advance."
"A party, to win in American pol-
itics," he said, "must stand on its
record and this impltes re-nominat-
ing President Hoover for a second
term."
At the time of the next presiden-
tial election, Roosevelt will be 50
years of age, Professor Cuncannon
said. "Ie is a cousin of the late
president, and married a niece of
Theodore Roosevelt. A graduate of
Harvard, a resi'dent of rural New
York, a descendant of the old Amer-
ican stock, an able lawyer, and a
distinguished public servant to the
state and nation, he is a fit subject
for political honors," he concluded.

VARSITY STOPS TWO GOAL THREATS
By JOE RUSSELL
(Special to The Daily)
SOLDIER'S FIELD, CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Nov. 8.-Fired to
a fighting pitch by Barry Wood's well-placed drop-kick which gave
Harvard a three-point lead with the last quarter less than a minute
old, Michigan came back this afternoon with everything it had,
rushed the Crimson down the field and ended with Hudson racing
across the goal line after snaring one of Newman's passes to give the
Kipkemen a 6-3 victory.
The Harvard lead was extremely short-lived, Michigan scoring
Nvithin five minutes after their opponents had had their moment of
hope. Lajeunesse kicked off to Huguley after Wood's score, but then
Michigan held and Harvard punted on the Maize and Blue 33-yard
line. From that moment until the

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Nov. 8.-
Flushed with pride at having
smuggled one copy of "Strange
Interlude" and one copy of
"Jurgen"into the easily shocked
home of the bean and the cod,
we arrived here this morning
with blood in our eyes and
the above mentioned volumes
sewed in the lining of our coat.
We discovered almost instantly
that Harvard is conveniently
situated 800 miles from Ann Ar-
bor and near the subway. The
campus contains several build-
ings which are two centuries old
and look it and a number of
shiny, new dormitories. The
whole place is lousy with cul-
ture, and we shall be combing
the dust of tradition out of our
beard for weeks to come.
Crimson rooters have an un-
altruistic view-point on the
matter of goal posts. Attempts
on the part of certain deep
thinkers in the Michigan con-

the game resulted in a tie. One

in time to rescue the other tem-
