| John W. Harreld (1872-1950) entered Oklahoma politics in 1919 when he was
elected as the representative of Oklahoma's Fifth District in a special
election. Although he opted not to seek reelection to the House, he instead
ran a successful campaign and was elected to the U.S. Senate in 1920 and
served one term. Harreld was a member of the committees on Agriculture
and Forestry, Claims, Post Offices and Post Roads, and Public Buildings
and Grounds. He also chaired the Indian Affairs Committee.
