Defeat of Slaughter Backed by Rules Leaders in Congress
Washington August 6 Key members of the House Rules committee from both parties viewed Rep. Slaughter of Missouri as an important setback for the administration. Rep Michener said if Democrats keep control, Slaughter's replacement would steer the panel to advance the party's legislative program. Slaughter's opposition helped prompt President Truman to urge his defeat in Missouri's Fifth District primary. The chairman noted southern influence would diminish with Slaughter gone, while the committee, 12 members strong, contains only four Republicans and eight Democrats, including two administration stalwarts.
