2 The Newt-Review, Roteburg, Eden Says Churchill Still Dominant Figure In House LONDON W) Sir Anthony Ed en became Britain's 42nd Prime Minister Wednesday but told Par liament Sir Winston Churchill will remain the "dominant figure" in the House of Commons. , Eden appeared in the House a few hours after receiving from Queen Elizabeth II the mandate to Churchill's. His appearance did not set off much of a "demonstration. There was a sound of approval from the Conservative benches be hind him, but the Laborites were silent. It was evident the Com mons still had its mind on Chur chill, who was not even present to hear the tributes of Eden and Cle ment Altlce, leader of the Labor opposition. Eden said Churchill's greatest at tribute in statesmanship rests on the fact that "he brought a most complete vision" to problems be fore him and always cut through to their core. "When he comes back from his holiday he will still be the domi ant figure among us," Eden said, adding: "I for my part will do all I can to serve our country."

Stassen announced Wednesday he is rejecting all bids for the proiect, and will call for new ones and a fresh start. Bender, praising Stassen as a "man of integrity," said in his statement that should have been enough to halt the inquiry. He added: "This week we are commemora ting the greatest crucifixion of all time, and considering what we stand for in these United States, I am not interested in a modern crucifixion when all that is involved is a desire for a few headlines." McClellan said Bender "doesn't have his facts straight" and added that the Chioan "had acquiesced" in having the inquiry. Sen. Mundt (R-SD) said "I can't see how it is" a crucifixion. Sen. Ervin (D-NC) said "I know of nothing to justify the unfortu- , nate deductions made by by col league. Sen. Bender."
