c Erhard esteifll as mmm Chancellor Wst !;.r Bundestag Voles 219 To 180 for National Leader BONN. Germany (UPI) Ludwig Erhard, who as eco nomics minister engineered West Germany s postwar boom was elected the nation's second chancellor today to replace rc- signed Konrad Adenauer. The Bithdestag, lower house of parliament, voted, 279-180, in favor of Erhard. The Christian Democratic Union which Adenauer and Er hard turned into the most pow erful vote-getting machine in German history, voted for Er hard along with their coalition partners, the Free Democrats. The opposition bocial Demo crats voted as a bloc against Erhard. . Speaker of Parliament Eugcn Gerstenmaier turned to the stocky Erhard and said. "I ask you, Member Erhard, do you accept the election.' In a strong voice, Erhard re plied, "I accept the election." A storm of applause swept the hall. It was a far larger margin man Adenauer himself had re ceived in his first election to the chancellorship. At that time, in 194fl, it was his own single vote that put him in power. Adenauer stepped down Tues day at the age of 87 after 14 years and one month in omce but he promised he would con tinue to speak "often and well" from the back benches in Par liament, where he will repre sent the Bonn area as a Chris tian Democratic Deputy. The pudgy, cigar-smoking Er hard thus won tne jon nc thought he should have had at least four years ago. But few observers believed he would hold onto it as long as Adenau er did. The Socialists, headed by West Berlin Mayor Willy Brandt, hoped to end the "Er hard era" In two years' time when Brandt and Erhard will fight it out in national elections.
