Third District Campaign Builds Quiet Momentum in Alabama
In Alabama the Third District race for Congress forms a four man contest after the retirement of veteran Henry B. Steagall. Roy Smith Hubert Facmer Robert Bennett and George Andrews vie for the vacancy as campaigns focus on speeches and broad outreach rather than direct contact. Andrews runs with support from his brother and naval duties limit appearances. Whirlwind drives for votes mark the effort as candidates spar over public attention.
