By the Associated Press. Hugh M. Tate of Knoxville, Tenn., was empowered today to take office as A& member of the Interstate Commerce Commission. His nomination to that post was approved by the Senate over the vigorous objection of a small group of Democrats and independent Repub- licans. Porty-eight votes were cast in favor of his confirmation, while the opposi- tion mustered 18 after voicing a general complaint against the appointment of “men interested in monopolies, trusts and combinations” to governmental regulatory bodies. Tate was attacked as a representa- tive of railroad and power interests, and, in addition, the objection was made that his appointment would vio- late the law requiring that not more than 6 of the commission’s 11 members be identified with one political party. The claim was made that Commissioner Woodlock, appointed as a Democrat, was in reality a Republican Senator Black, Democrat, of Ala- bama asserted that Tate had acted as attorney for the Southern Railway and for power companies. a contention that was denied by McKellar of Tennessee, also a Democrat, who argued that while Tate’s law firm had done some work for | the Southern in the Knoxville area it had been obtained and handled by one of Tate's partners. Black also referred to press reports that Tate had been recommended for appointment to the commission by Jere- miah Millbank, a director of the South- ern. This, Senator Couzens, Republican, of Michigan said he could “authorita- tively deny.” Norris of Nebraska, independent Re- publican, and Wheeler of Montana, a Democrat. also participated in the at- tack on the ground that he was identi- fled with the railroads and power com- panies. ‘The roll call vote, which was taken at the close of yesterday's session, showed 34 Republicans and 14 Demo- crats in favor of confirmation and 8 independent Republicans and 10 Dem- osrats voting against approval. s - CITY NEWS IN BRIEF. ‘TODAY.
