Conally (D., Tex.), Hughes (D., Del.), Borah (R., Idaho) and Ashurst (D., Ariz.) Then Neely'a motion for a favor able report was approved 14 to 4, with the following lineup: For: Neely, McCarran, Van Nuys, Logan, Dleterlch, McGlll, Hatch, Pitt man, Connally, O'Mahoney, Hughes, Borah and Ashurst. Against: King, Austin, Burke and Stelwer. Senator O'Mahoney, who was ab sent, voted by letter on the final motion. Senator Norrls (D., Ind.), also absent, was not recorded on either motion. Would QuUz Nominee Just before the committee met Senator Burke (D., Neb.) had an nounced he would demand that Black be questioned about his quali fications for the supreme court. Burke said he would ask that the Alabaman be quizzed either today or tomorrow about his views on Judi cial review. Senator Austin (R., Vt.) said be would support Burke's demand. Both said they were not concerned with reports that Black once ran with Ku Klux Klan support. Senator Mc Carran (D., Nev.) el to Indicated he would vote for hearings. Questioned as to whether this might delay congressional adjourn ment, McCarran suggested congress might adjourn and let the senate have a apeclal session to consider the nomination. Despite these demands for hear ings, the majority of the committee members were definitely on record in favor of Black's Immediate confir mation. Seek Action Tuesday Administration leaders sought a fa vorable report today so that the Alabaman could be confirmed tomor row. Two powerful influences were working in favor of swift approval senatorial courtesy and tho stampede for adjournment of congress this week. Even reference of the Black nomination to committee was a breach of custom providing for im mediate confirmation of a senator to a federal post. Hearings would result in delay, and congressional leaders had their followers keyed to adjourn by the end of the week. Democratic Leader Barkley, forecasting confirmation to morrow, said he expected only a few hours' debate. Despite these personal factors, a Republican demand for delay was in creasing. Opposition senators said it was backed by telegraphic reqtita for hearings from many parts of the country.
