Edward C. Moran Jr.

Edward Carleton Moran Jr. (December 29, 1894 – July 12, 1967) was an American politician from Maine who served in the United States House of Representatives.

He later served at the Fort Monroe Coast Artillery Training Center and was a first lieutenant when he was discharged at the end of the war.

[5] Upon Moran's death, U. S. Senator Edmund Muskie made this statement in the Congressional Record: "...What I admired most about Carl Moran was his courage in being an active Democrat in Maine at a time when the party could hope for few victories at the polls.

His successes in the public interest were highly significant in the development of Maine as a two-party State.

His achievements as a Democrat in a Republican State suggest a man of deep conviction and great energy and optimism.

The Nation lost an outstanding citizen, and Maine a favorite son with the passing of Carl Moran.
