Abstract

And Save Us from the Young Republicans!
Shelton, Willard | October 14, 1950 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the young republicans. The twenty U.S. Republican Senators who have come to Washington in the past four years make up almost half the U.S. Republican party's strength in the upper house. Many of them are reasonably young in years. They might have been expected to bring verve and fresh ideas to a party that for a generation has suffered from hardening of the arteries. In the field of foreign policy it is statistically demonstrable that the new Republicans are vastly less sensitive to the urgencies of the U.S. position than their veteran colleagues. In domestic affairs the young Republicans have shown a tendency to follow a policy in favoring civil rights bills.
