in the house of representatives as a
result of the selections made by the
ways and means majority and ratified

noon, is stronger than in the last con-

Mr. Whaley made a striking advance,
going to the committee on the judi

mittees which are 80 important that
members who secure assignments TO
them are not allowed to serve on any
other committee at the same time.
Mr.. Finley retains MS position as

tees.
Mr.. Lever remains chairman of agri-

major class.
Mr.. Aiken continues as the ranking
member of the committee on the Dis

on the committees on the census and
on expenditures in the navy depart
ment.
Mr. Byrnes is made chairman of the
committee on mileage, and in addition
is placed on the committees on mer-
chant marine and fisheries, roads and
war claims.
Mr.. Ragsdale, retiring from the
banking and currency committee, OBJ
tains positions on the committees on
