This article presents information on the politicians John Sherman Cooper and Thurston Ballard Morton. Cooper has won another election in Kentucky and for the next four years will sit in the seat from which death snatched old Alben Barkley. Cooper has been in that chamber twice before for two-year terms. His campaign this fall certainly has added nothing to his stature and just as certainly has destroyed some of the fictions that have enveloped him for the past ten years. In his campaign this year, he committed everything he possessed politically and intellectually to his party, and most specifically to U.S. President Dwight David Eisenhower.
