Abstract

Utah-Battle of the Regulars
Hess, E. L. | October 11, 1952 issue

add to cart   close window

The U.S. Senatorial contest in Utah lost some of its interest for the nation as a whole when the Republican primary in September eliminated Marriner S. Eccles, the fighting banker who served as chairman of the Federal Reserve Board in two U.S. administrations. Eccles was defeated by the colorless, plodding, ultra-isolationist Arthur Vivian Watkins. The Democratic nominee is the equally colorless, Walter Kiel Granger, who for the past twelve years has been an all-out supporter of the New Deal and Fair Deal in the lower house.
