The customs and practices of the AMERICAN two-party system as developed in Congress are such that only a strong seniority system is now workable. A United States Senator must serve at least ten years in order to become effective. The twenty-two years SENATOR DENNIS CHAVEZ has spent in the UNITED STATES CONGRESS representing the people of New Mexico have now given him such a position of seniority and prestige that New Mexico, her people and their needs, have now, for the first time since 1848, gained full-fledged recognition in the hails of the United States Congress.
