WASHINGTON, Jan. 8 By
a vote of 247 to 78, the house today
rejected a resolution to bar James
M. Beck, former solicitor general
of the United States, from a seat
as republican representative from
Pennsylvania.
The resolution, offered by the
democratic leader, Representative
Garrett of Tennessee, on the open
ing day of the last seesion was
swept aside by a vote that saw more
than a fwore of democrats joining
in the almost unanimous chorus of
republican "noes."
A moment later the house adopted
an affirmative resolution giving the
Pennsylvnnian a clear title to bis
swat. Then, for the first time sinre
he came to the house, Representa
tive Beck took the floor to address
the body, thanking the members for
"sustaining my right to membership."

The delicately toasted flavor of Luckics
