...bill, while 21 voted against it. Twenty-seven Republicans voted aye, while only six said no. In addition to Barry Goldwater (see following story), the dissident Republicans were New Hampshire's Norris Cotton, Iowa's Bourke Hickenlooper, New Mexico's Edwin Mechem, Wyoming's Milward Simpson and Texas' John Tower...
