Wttl THE ONLY COLLEGE DAILY IN THE SOUTH 11 Spring IhtU (Of If' V (U ;OLUME XLVI Freshmen To Vote On Form Of Yackety -Yack Pictures In Assembly This Morning World N e w s o By Nelson Large CHAUTEMPS ATTEMPTS TO FORM NEW MINISTRY Paris, Jan. 17. The radical socialist, Camille Chautemps, worked feverishly today as he .attempted to reconstruct a new People's Front ministry to re place the cabinet which resigned Friday in the face of financial and labor troubles. Chautemps was called by President Albert Lebrun to end the four-day crisis in France after the failure of Leon Blum, socialist leader, to gain support of the "national union" govern ment. New discoveries of hidden arms caches in the surete na tional's drive against leftist and rightist revolutionary organiza tions proved to be a new subject for increasing restlessness in the country. Following a conference with Lebrun, Chautemps made public his intention to build the new cabinet much on the same order as his former people's front gov ernment. Several of his resigned ministers will be called to serve again. A half an hour 'after Blum resigned from the position of premier, Chautemps rushed to the presidential palace declaring that "I want neither a day nor even an hour lost to the country for my personal satisfaction." Once since the crisis began, Chautemps had declined the mis sion, but he agreed to sound out the possibilities of liquidating the situation after Blum's fail ure aggravated its gravity. SENATE FEELS CERTAIN ON REED'S NOMINATION Washington, Jan. 17. Cer tainty that Stanley F. Reed would be confirmed to the bench of the Supreme Court this week "was expressed by members of the senate judiciary, committee studying Reed's qualifications today. Therp was not one word of objection to the nomination of the 53-year-old solicitor general among the group of senators commenting on the President's selection. Senator Rush Holt (D-W. Va.), a frequent admin istration critic, was among members of both major parties indicating approval. According to Holt, "the amaz ing thing about it is that the President appointed a judge in stead of one of his fervent haters." Although many senators were ready to take a quick vote on Heed, the judiciary committee still sought to arrange for a ireful study of his qualifica tions in an effort to prevent a recurrence of events seen in slack's recent nomination to the nch. o cases of national interest "fnr ric?An xxr til P. 1US' tices, meeting at noon for the last session before a two weeks u cess and the retirement of Sutherland -to become effective EDITORIAL PHONE 4351 Two Proposals Will Be Submitted To New Men At 10;30 Attendance Urged By class vote, freshmen will decide today in assembly whether to use the contracted space-of. the class in the 1938 Yackety-Yack for group pic tures of the entire class or indi vidual snapshots of 32. promi nent first year men. 4. .Because of a poor attendance Friday at chapel called by President Christian Siewers to dispose of- the matter, voting was delayed until today.
