SENATE LEADER
Nominal leader OF the COP in the
senate is Wallace Humphrey White
Jr. of Maine, a quiet, white-haired,
conscientious little man who holds
the deep respect of men on both
sides of the political aisle. He has
been ir congress since 1917. His
selection as majority leader was an
accident, more or less, resulting
from factional clashes between Taft
and others in the COP ranks. In
the frequent pitched senatorial
battles he glances back for a sign
from Senator Taft on what to do.
