EVERETT DIRKSEN. TLS: "Everett M. Dirksen" as Republican Minority Leader, ¼p, 8x10½. Washington, D.C. 1968 September 16. On his United States Senate letterhead to Mr. Carson C. Hathaway, Silver Spring, Maryland. In full: "Who knows - I might take up the offer sometime, for you do indeed make it sound most enticing to live in such a serene atmosphere. It was a delight to hear from you. With every good wish". Dirksen died in office on September 7, 1969, less than a year after signing this letter. Everett McKinley Dirksen (1896-1969) was U.S. Representative (1933-1949) and U.S. Senator (1951 until his death in 1969) from Illinois. He was the Republican Whip from 1957-1959 and Minority Leader from 1959-1969. As Minority Leader, Dirksen played a key role in the passage of the Voting Rights Act (1965) and the Fair Housing Act (1968). Slightly soiled at lower blank margin. Fine condition.
