ship for the excellent way in
which differences were resolved.
If you could have heard the spon-

Tom Jenkins seconding of Charley
Halleck for the Leadership, you
would feel as we do that good

So, instead of the divided group
that might have taken over the
organization of the House at noon
on Friday, January 3rd, 1947, diff
ferences had been adjusted and
agreements arrived at without
rancor and without bitterness.
The Clerk Of the House having
passed away, the Doorkeeper con-

chosen to act as one of the four
