The fight of James M. Beck, former Solicitor General of the United States, to retain his seat as a Republican Rep- resentative from Pennsylvania, led him to the foor of tho House yester- day when one of its election commit- tees filed a report upholding his con- tentions.

Along with the majority re- port came one from the minority reit- erating the charge that was advanced against ing him at the opening of fon—that he was not an in- nt of Pennsylvania in the con- titutional sense at the time of his lection. Tell of Republican Support. Democratic dissenters from the ma-| ority report declared, however, that heir fight would not be conducted along party lines in the House.
