believe 1t Is our duty to examine
the validity of each request. I be-
lieve it is our duty to designate
where, when, by whom, and fol
what purpose our money is to be

for Congress to determine how much
aid we can give without impairine

Two-way Cooperation Urged.
Mr.. Reece said he believed the Re-
publican Congress should cooperate
with Mr.. Truman when he is right
and feels just as strongly the Presi-

New Mississippi Senator Here
For Opening of Special Session

Judicial Circuit, with unlimited
Jurisdiction, both civil and criminal
over five counties in East Central
Mississippi. They were Lowndes,
Clay, Noxubee, Kemper and Oktib-
beha. He has not had a reversal
from the Mississippi State Supreme
Court for the last 10 years.
Asked what his principal hobby
was, the Judge replied briefly hard
work.
He has done much for the boys
in his State, according to Robert
D. Morrow, his administrative
assistant, and Frank Smith. his
secretary. He was State chairman
Of the All Club Advisory Council,
and active in the Future Farmers
of America.
. Il am primarily interested In
agriculture de declared, since I
represent q State, Sc per cent Of
whose gross income is from agricul-
tural products" He hastened to
add, however, he was not limiting to
be assigned to the Agriculture Com
mittee Of the Senate.
On relief for Europe, the Senator
elect said he had an open mind
but felt some aid should be given
to Western Europe. One of the
main concerns, he said, seems to
be proper application of relief to
stabilize the people there, to make
them self-sustaining, and to ward
off communism"
AS a jurist, Judge Stennis ex-
pressed interest in the world court,
which he thinks should be strength
ened and its jurisdiction extended
Arriving here with the Senator
elect were his wife, Mrs. Coy Hines
Stennis and two children, John
Hampton, II, and Margaret Jane
10. More than 100 other Mississip-
plans came to Washington to see
him sworn in and wish him well
Among them are two sisters, Miss
jamie Stennis and Miss Bessie Stem
mis- and q brother, Judge Samuel
B. Stennis of Pampa, Texas.
Mrs. Stennis, a graduatesof Missis-
sippi Southern College, has been
active in girl scout work in Kemper
County, and was a former Kemper
County Home Demonstration Agent
Mrs. Stennis and the children plan
to return to their home at De Kalk
so the children can finish their
semester in school. They will come
back to Washington in January.

By Harold B. Rogers

Mississippi's new Democratic Sen
ator elect, John C. Stennis, arrived
here yesterday and preferred to talk
about agriculture and the world
court, instead of the race issue or
District affairs.
The tall, firm jawed former judge
of a State circuit court has been
widely reported as a possible men,
Der of the Senate District Commit
tee, but his committee assignments
it is understood, have not been made
officially.
Senator elect Stennis will be
sworn in tomorrow succeeding the
late Senator Bilbo, former chairman
of the Senate District Committee
When Senator Bilbo failed to get his
seat at the opening of the 80th
Congress last January, his place on
the minority list of the District
Committee was left vacant for his
possible return, and never has been
filed. Judge Stennis, disclaiming
knowledge of District affairs, said
he had no comment on them now.
In his primary campaign the Sen
ator-elect stressed the agricultural
and industrial advancement Of Mis-
sissippi, with considerable attention
to improvements in education, and
won over five candidates, four DEM
ocratic and one Republican, includ-
ing Representative Rankin. His plu.
rality over his nearest competitor
Representative Colmer, was more
than 5000 votes.
Judge Stennis ignored the rae,
issue in his stumping and, although
it was brought up by some of hi
opponents, it was not major figh
in Mississippi this year. Refrainins
now from any discussion of IL
Judge Stennis indicated he nigh

ment on his policy some time ate
he takes the oath Of office.
Prompted by some of his as.
sociates at this point during an in
terview at the Raleigh Hotel, Judge
Stennis, who still stresses hi!
primary interest in agriculture
pointed TO his campaign slogan: ~
want to pillow a straight furrov
right down to the end of my row.
Judge Stennis is proud Of hi.
farm background. Born 46 years age
on farm in Kemper County, ir
east central Mississippi, he was
graduated from Mississippi State
College with the degree of Bachelor
of Science in Agriculture. He wa!

In Congress Lineup

Eight new members will take their
seats this week when the 80th Con-
gress ends its recess and resumes its
first session.
Seven are Representatives-elect
and one is q Senator-elect.
Never before in the memory Of
veteran Capitol employees have that
many new members been sworn in
in mid-term. Usually they come in
one at a time as they are elected
to fill vacancies.
The additions won't disturb the
political complexion of either the
Senate or the House, both of which
remain under Republican control.
The Senate lineup, with no vacan-
cies, will be 81 Republicans and As
Democrats, the lone Democratic va
cancy having been filled by election
OF John Stennis as successor to the
late Theodore Bilbo Of Mississippi.
In the House, there will be 244
Republicans, 1873 Democrats and one
American-Laborite, with two Repub-
lican vacancies.
New House members expected to
take their seats tomorrow are Ralph
Harvey, Republican, Of Indiana, sue
ceeding Raymond s. Springer, Re-
publican, deceased; Charles E. Pot
ter, Republican, Of Michigan, sue
ceeding Fred Bradley, Republican,
deceased; Abraham J. Multer, DEM
ocrat, of New York, succeeding Leo
F.. Rayfield, Democrat resigned !;
William McCulloch, Republican, of
Ohio, succeeding Robert E. Jones,
Republican, resigned; Franklin H.
Lichtenwalter, Republican, of Penn
sylvania, succeeding Charles L. Ger
ZACH, Republican, deceased; Clark
w. Thompson, Democrat, of Texas,
succeeding Joseph j. Mansfield,
Democrat, deceased; KEN Regain,
Democrat, of Texas, succeeding Ew-
ing Thomson, Democrat, resigned

| tiatsd by Congress to restain infla-
ton and reduce prices has met
White House opposition-the tax re-
duction bill, budget reduction bills,
the labor bill to increase production
and the bill providing for an orderly
removal of OPA control"
Mr.. Reece declared that III Mr..
Truman proposes an effective cure
| for imitation, one which does not
call for reorganization, or statism, or
impairment Of the freedom of the
citizen, then he should have our
aid. If, on the contrary, his pro-
posals consist of further New Deal
nonsense, dished up by radical and
subversive advisers, he should be
resisted vigorously"
Declaring there has been some
discussion of limited controls, Mr..
Reece said sit is no more possible
to have limited price controls than
it is to have limited case of small
pox." To illustrate, he argued that
fixing the price of a loaf of bread
would require similar control of all
elements entering into bread max
ing.
Foreign Relations Group to Meet.
| The Senate Foreign Relations
Committee meets in closed session
tomorrow morning to begin discuss
ing the detailed form of the stop
gap aid bill. Chairman Vandenberg
is refraining from any forecasts
until his committee goes over, the
problem.
Meanwhile, the House Foreign At
fairs Committee will continue to-
morrow and Tuesday to gather infor-
nation on the interim aid problem.
It Is scheduled to meet in closed ses-
sion at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning
with a military intelligence officer
On Tuesday it will hear in open
session another group of House
members who went to Europe during
the recess.
Indications are that both branches
Of Congress will be ready during
the week of November "a to begin
floor debate. 1t is possible both
bodies may take up the stopgap bill
simultaneously. Leaders pointed out
that If this is done whichever cham
Der acts last could substitute the
bill approved by the other.
Murray Issues Warning.
A recommendation that the for
eign aid program should be admin
istered by men free from the mar
rowness Of view which characterizes
certain segments of the business
community" was made last night by
Philip Murray, president Of the Con-
gress of Industrial Organizations in
a memorandum to President Tru-
man.
Unless we have an administra-
ton of the program that can wiz
and hold the confidence Of the peo-
pie who receive our aid, its success
will be dubious" Mr.. Murray as
serted. I'm this connection, labor
has a vital stake as representatives
of millions of citizens and workers
in the success of the program"
In listing the basic principles he
said should govern the forgein aio
program, Mr. Murray said an ade-
quate program will require that
we give more attention to the eco
nomic dangers to America" He
added that since some shortages Of
food, and materials may result from
a European program, there must be
assurance that what is available tt
our own people is distributed equi'
tably without regard to income Of
whether business is large or small
We must take steps necessary in the
way of controls to prevent specula-
ton, further imitation, or rising
prices"

FILM "BREWSTER'S MILLIONS" IS BILL
 AT 20TK CENTURY

How would you go about spend- ing million dollars in two months time? That's the intriguing prob lem that confronts Monty Brewster in Edward Smalls engaging com edy "Brewster's Millons," slated to bow in at the goth Century Theatre tonight.
 The title role is played by Dennis O'Keefe as Monty Brewster, who characterizes a jovial GI. recently discharged from the Service, who falls heir to an eight-million-dol- lar fortune left him by daffy uncle he has never met. The uncle desiring to rob his nephew of the enthusiastic joy of spending has put quite a few dampers on the gift. First, and most important of all, is that Monty has to spend his first million in two months time. The second is that none is to be given outright to charity, and the third that no permanent assets can be acquired with it, not even a wife.
 It is fast moving production with Helen Walker, lovely and sincere as Peggy, Monty's bewild- cred but shock-proof fiancee; June Havoc as Trixie, the show girl who graciously allows Monty to shower money and gifts upon her, and Rochester" as champion worrier, Gail Parker and Mischa Auer.
