A relatiW newcomer to national
politics, McKeldin was elected in
1960 on his first try as Governor ^
of Maryland by the largest majority
ever given a, gubernatorial candi
date in that state.
The popular former governor
served two terms in the Maryland
State House, from 1948 to 1930.
His quick rise in i^litics in
Maryland, a state that had been
dominated by Democrats prior to
1950, Won for him a prominent
place in Republican national poll'
tics in the mid fifties.
He was invited to second the
nomination of President Eisenhow
er att he 1952 convention.
McKeldln’s international position
and liberal views also made him
attractive to a wide segment of
Maryland’s electorate. He has long
been a suporter of more liberal
immigration laws and holds a posi
tion on the national committee on
Immigration and Naturalization.
It has also brought numerous
tributes, awards and citation from
minority groups throughout the
country.
He has been honored for his
