Women in-Congress Holding Their
Own; 27 Are Candidates This Year
Washington-(CQ)-While an
unprecedented number of
women are working in the
1960 election campaign to
"get that vote" for their
favorite Presidential candi
date, there is a small group
of 27 women working to get
that vote for themselves-the
women candidates for Con
gress. ,
The 27 women include 18
Democrats and nine Repub
licans. The Democrats in
clude two seeking Senate
seats and the. Republicans
include one incumbent can
didate for the Senate.
New women can didates
on the Democratic slate far
outnumber their Republican
counterparts - the GOP has
only two new women candi
dates, both seeking House
scats! while . the Democrats
have 10-eight for the House
and two for the Senate. Wom
en incumbents running to re
tain their seats total 15-eight
Democrats and seven Repub
licans. ,
For the first tjme- in his
tory, the- 1060 election will
see two women fighting It out
for a Senate seat-in Maine.
In that race, incumbent Sen.
Margaret Chase $mith (R) is
opposed by Miss Lucia M.,
Cormier (D), currently minor
ity leader in the Maine House
of Representatives, where
she is serving her sixth term.
The third woman candidate
for the Senate is Mrs.'Mau
rine Neuberger (D-Ore.), wid
ow of the late Sen. Richard
L. Neuberger (1954-60). Mrs.
Neuberger is running against
GOP candidate Elmo Smith,
a former Oregon interim gov
ernor (1956-57) who now pub
lishes a newspaper.
The women Democratic
candidates also Include one
former Congresswoman, Mrs.
Coya Knutson (Minn., 1954
58) and two making second
tries for seats they came close
to winning in the 1958 election-Mrs.
Rudd Brown, Cali
fornia, and Miss Dorothy
O'Brien, Illinois. Mrs. Knut
son lost in 1958 after a much
publicized family squabble in
which her husband campaign
ed against her with a "Coya
come home" plea.
Mrs. Brown is running
against her 1958 ' opponent,
GOP Rep. Edgar W. Hiestand.
She's a daughter of the late
Ruth Bryan Owen Rohde, a
former congresswoman from
Florida and Minister to Nor
way, and also a granddaugh
ter of famed orator William
Jennings Bryan. Miss O'Brien,
trying her luck a second time
against GOP Rep. Noah M.
Mason, has been Democratic
state vice chairman for north
ern Illinois since 1958.
Win or lose, the women are
showing continuing determin
ation in an uphill struggle to
Capitol hill. To date, 65 wom
en have served in Congress,
nine in the Senate and 56 in
the House. There were 17
women in the 86th Congress
(1959-60), which was one
more than in the 85th and
equal to the record set in the
first session of the 84th in
1955. :.
That the going for women
candidates is rough has been
indicated by women who
should know. Rep. Jessica
McC. Weis (R-N.Y.) says "the
smoke-filled room has long
been the private preserve of
men,, they are used to it, and
few are ready to admit we
may know as much about
politics as they do."
Mrs. Clare B. Williams,
who directs women's activi
ties for the GOP - National
committee, says for a woman
to succeed in politics she
must "combine the optimism
of Pollyanna, the efficiency
of an electronic computer
and the competitive spirit of
a football tackle."
Women in key political po
sitions regard the progress
of women in gaining Congres
sional seats as slow and the
orize that the only woman
who can win is one of three
types: a widow first named to
fill the unexpired term of her
late husband; a woman with
very substantial financial
means, or a woman whose
husband has a business that
is so flexible her career will
not wreck her home life.
But there are signs the
"widow's peak" in Congress
is receding. Of the 65 women
who have served in Congress,
21 first filled unexpired terms
of their late husbands, but
12 of these won reelection on
their own. The 15 women in
cumbents seeking reelection
include nine widows, with
four who succeeded their hus
bands, then - won reelection.
Among new candidates there
is but one widow, Mrs. Neu
berger, who did not fill out
her late husband's term. And
bachelors in Congress will be
happy to hear there are three
i,unmarried candidates.
Here are the new women
candidates: Republicans
House, Mrs. Lois V. Nair
(Mich.) Mrs. Phyllis Schlafly
(111.); Democrats-Senate, Miss
Lucia M. Cormier (Maine),
Mrs. M a u r i n e Neuberger
(Ore.); House, Mrs. Rudd
Brown (Calif.), Mrs. Julia
Butler Hansen (Wash.), Miss
Mary M. Harden (Mich.), Miss
Mary Kennedy (Mass.), Mrs.
Coya Knutson (Minn.), Miss
Dorothy O'Brien (111.), Mrs.
Margaret Lee Walgren (Pa.),
and Mrs. Katharine Elkus
White (N.J.).
Incumbent candidates: Republicans-Senate,
Mrs. Mar-
garet Chase Smith (Maine);
House, Mrs. Frances P. Bol
ton (Ohio), Mrs. Marguarite
Stitt Church (111.), Mrs. Flor-,
ence P. Dwyer (N.J.), Mrs.
Catherine May (Wash.), Mrs.
Katharine St. George (N.Y.),
and Mrs. Jessica McC. Weis
(N.Y.); Democrats -House,
Mrs. Iris F. Blitch (Ga.), Mrs.
