Rumored challenge to Iowa Republican state chair York
Reports from Des Moines indicate a possible contest to retain Willis York as state Republican chairman and to oppose him for district committeeman in the sixth district. York, who succeeded Fred Gilbert in 1943, faces a rival group that also opposed him in the 1944 convention, with no confident forecast for next week’s district fight.
