Republicans elect new chairman amid party turmoil
Republicans elected Guy Gabrielson as national committee chairman in a closely contested vote. The 48 member body split 44 to 45 with several delegates from Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia providing the slim majority. Gabrielson, a Sioux City Iowa native and former Wall Street lawyer, faced strong but not decisive support from Taft allies and other party figures while Dewey backers backed Axel Beck. A Harmony meeting in Clear Lake urged unity and suggested further slate adjustments.
