Truman's Vinson Seen Headed For Senate Approval
President Truman’s pick of Vinson for chief justice draws broad early support with Senators predicting quick confirmation. Some critics call Vinson a middle-of-the-road choice, while others worry about members’ leanings and the White House stance toward labor.
