Two Ble Chairs to Be Filled in Republican Power Struggle
In Bruray Washington June 2 the Republican mind debates who will fill the Secretary of State post and the National Committee chair, with Depew unable to serve and Foster Hay and Sewall as top possibilities. The secretaryship hinges on brief tenure and international ties while the chairmanship may decide the party’s fate this year and four years of patronage. Sewall emerges as the favored choice for chairman given close ties to the President, possible acceptance, and deep knowledge of New York and New Jersey politics.
