Swiss Parliament to Elect President in Quiet Turnover
Switzerland's Parliament votes on Tuesday to select Rodolphe Rubattel, current minister of economics and vice president of the Federal Council, as president for 1954. The process avoids campaigning and nominating conventions. Rubattel will earn 11,800 dollars a year, as the law dictates his turn. The presidency rotates among the seven Federal Council members, reflecting Swiss preference for collective leadership and short-term leadership.
