Thus, Pennsylvanians ousted Republican Senator James H. Duff, original Ike-man who had been a sulky, do-little Senator, in favor of personable Democrat Joseph Clark. But they gave Ike a smashing 592,000-vote plurality, and the G.O.P. regained full control of the state legislature. Similarly. Washington State re-elected popular Democrat Warren Magnuson to the Senate over Governor Arthur Langlie, on the basis of Maggie's generally hard work in the Senate and his shower of favors to his state from Washington, D.C.-but the state's hard-working Republican incumbents were returned to Congress from...

Mallon built up Dresser into a company that could serve the entire gas and oil industry. In 1937 Dresser bought its first subsidiary company, Clark Bros, (angle compressors), and also got its vice president, John B. O'Connor, in the bargain.
