Lehman and Douglas received no new assignments, Murray became chair of labor and public welfare, Kilgore stayed on appropriations, Benton failed to win a foreign relations seat. Sparkman and Gillette took foreign relations seats. Sparkman has U N delegation experience, Gillette has prior relations experience. Gillette often opposed parts of the Fair Deal, Sparkman aligns with the southern bloc against civil rights. Stennis to armed services, Frear to finance, Eastland and Humphrey to agriculture.
