		+	* 1950: In a speech in Wheeling, [[Directory:West Virginia\|West Virginia]], Joseph McCarthy, a relatively unknown senator from [[Directory:Wisconsin\|Wisconsin]], declared that he had a list of 250 known Communists in the U.S. State Department; now with a national audience, he took the same charges to the Senate floor later in the month, and the Tydings Committee was appointed to investigate (it dismissed the charges).

		+	* 1825: The U.S. House of Representatives, exercising this power for the second (and so far last) time in U.S. history, chose John Quincy Adams as president of the United States; the election went to the House because none of the five candidates had secured a majority of electoral votes, but Andrew Jackson had won more than Adams.
