Frederick Hale (October 7, 1874 – September 28, 1963) was a Maine Republican who was as the state's U.S. senator from the late 1910s to the early 1940s, previously for a term in the lower state legislature. He came from a political dynasty, as both his father Eugene Hale and maternal grandfather Zachariah Chandler were also senators.
U.S. Senate
Hale was an opponent of the liberal agenda during the presidency of Franklin D. Roosevelt, opposing New Deal programs[2] at an even greater frequency than his Maine senatorial colleague Wallace H. White.[3] Along with White in 1937, was one of sixteen senators to vote against the confirmation of Klansman Hugo Black to the United States Supreme Court.[4]
