Leadership Battles Intensify in House Races
In Washington on November 16, two new candidates from each party entered the race for House floor leadership. Illinois Republican Everett M. Dirksen emerged as a top contender alongside Charles A. Halleck and Thomas Jenkins, while Mississippi Democrat Rankin signaled a bid for the minority post, heightening tensions with northern and southern Democrats. Current speaker Joseph W. Martin Jr. will be succeeded if the Republicans win. Rankin’s moves renew calls for Sam Rayburn to reconsider leaving as minority leader, with John W. McCormack of Massachusetts seen as unsatisfactory to southern factions led by Rankin. Rankin’s past work on the unamerican activities committee has soured colleagues from other regions.
