- Description:
- Congressman Nixon is described as courageous and fearless, particularly for his role in exposing Alger Hiss. A comparison of Nixon and Congresswoman Douglas's records shows differences in their stances on national defense, aid to foreign countries, internal security and communism, taxes and government spending, veterans' issues, socialistic planning, small business support, labor-management relations, tidelands ownership, the Central Valley Project, housing policies, and endorsements from communist newspapers. The People's Daily World labeled Nixon as "the man to beat" in the Senate race, indicating support for his candidacy.
