Senate Confirms James Byrnes As secy. Of State

WASHINGTON, June 2-P- James Byrnes was confirmed unanimously by the Senate as Secretary of State. The action was taken in matter of minutes after the nomination was received from the Whitehouse.
 The Senate suspended its rules which require hearings on Cab met nominations to have a day layover before a vote can be taken on such appointment. This is done as a tribute by both Democrats and Republicans.
 The man who served with them for years and later was associate Justice of Supreme Court and more recently director of War Mobilization was confirmed and it placed Byrnes next in line for the Presidency under the present stat utes should President Truman not complete his term.
 Majority leader Berkley moved to suspend the rules almost as soon as the nomination was re- ceived from the Whitehouse. Mi nority leader White concurred, as- serting i've all know MT. Byrnes : personally" add that his length of service in high government 'leaves no doubt in anyone's mind as to his qualifications"
 The confirmation gave Presi- dent Truman his fifth cabinet member of his own choice.
