Sabath, Adolph J.

0.02 sec.

Sabath, Adolph J. (1866–1952) U.S. representative; born in Zabori, Bohemia. Emigrating as a teenager, he arrived penniless in Chicago in 1881, going from shoe salesman to lawyer by 1893. Elected to the U.S. House of Representatives (Dem., Ill.; 1907–52), he championed unrestricted immigration and pro-labor measures like workmen's compensation. An internationalist ally to presidents Roosevelt and Truman, he was frustrated in his efforts to support them by the conservative members of his Rules Committee.
