PAC Endorses Barkley for U S Senate in 1954
The Kentucky CIO Political Action Committee unanimously endorses Alben W. Barkley for the U S Senate on November 2, 1954. The statement lauds his forty years in public office, experience in national and international affairs, and his record as a representative of all the people including farmers workers and small business owners. The piece contrasts Barkley’s approach with the current administration’s “creeping Hooverism” and “trickle down” theory.
