Summary

Description
English: A slightly blurry Speaker Nicholas Longworth is shown addressing the House after his re-election as Speaker in 1927. The galleries above the Floor were packed, with reporters perched over the rostrum and spectators filling every seat in the public galleries. In his speech, Longworth welcomed rebellious Progressives back into the fold of the Republican Party, and declared that he would rather lead the House “than hold any other office in the gift of the American people.”
