BOHLEN WILL BE AMBASSADOR TO RUSSIA
The Senate has approved Charles E. (Chip) Bohlen as ambassador to Moscow in a smashing 74 to 13 vote of confidence in President Eisenhower. Two Democrats joined 11 Republicans in voting against confirmation of the 48-year-old career diplomat who had been unqualifiedly endorsed by Eisenhower as the best man for the Moscow post.
Bohlen, who won his soubriquet of "Chip" at Harvard because of his chipper stability, is expected to be dispatched as soon as possible to Moscow.
