WASHINGTON. Feb. 4.-By a ma
jority Of one vote-32 to 3i-Frank
v. Glass. Of Alabama. editor OF the
Birmingham News. lost his fight for
seat in the United States Senate
late today. The vote sustaind the
recommendation of the committee on
privileges and elections. which held
that Mr.. Glass was not entitled to
be seated because his appointment by
Governor 0Neal to succeed the late
Senator Joseph r Johnson was made
after the seyentevth constitutional
amendment directing election of SEN
ators by the people had been pro-
claimed in full effect.
Spirited and at times bitter debate
marked the close of the case, the
second which the Senate has settled
involving Interpretation of the consti-
tutional amendment. Senator Blair
Lee of Maryland, who was seated a
few days ago on recommendation OF
the elections committee made his
maiden speech in favor of MFR. Glass
and later cast his vote for him.
In the face OF determined opposl-
tion from the majority members OF
the committee headed by Senator
Kern. the champions OF the Alabam-
ian proceeding from a forlOrn hope

ing votes and the narrow margin by
