Brown. of New Hampshire. named Comptroller General in 1939 at a salary of $10.000. former Senator F. Ryan Duffy. of Wisconsin. named Federal district judge for eastern Wisconsin. following his defeat in 1938. that stalwart New Deal leader and whip of another body. former Senator Sherman Minton. of Indiana. placed on the United States Court of Appeals at an annual remuneration of $12.500. following his defeat for reelection in 1940. former Senator James Pope. of Idaho. who was given a $10.000 a year plum as a member of the Board of Directors of the Tennessee Valley Authority after his defeat in 1938. and former Senator Robert J.
