Seniority System Beats Last House Challenge to McMillan
Washington reports the seniority rule withstood a final House bid to remove District of Columbia Committee chair John McMillan. After two days of liberal opposition and a nonbinding challenge, McMillan, 72, retained the chair as Democrats and Republicans approved committee slots and advanced the 92nd Congress organization. Waldie, a 45-year-old Californian, led the dissidents, arguing seniority breeds abuse, but his bid failed amid broad support for McMillan.
