Removal of Public Printer Palmer Highlighted at Government Print Shop
The government printing office, the world’s largest institution of its kind, faced scrutiny over the removal of Frank W. Palmer for maladministration tied to a 72 machine typesetting purchase. A commission found no corrupt payments but noted lack of fair testing and bias toward the winning supplier. Palmer refused Roosevelt’s administration orders and was dismissed. The new building, costing about 2.5 million dollars, took four years to construct and sits under army engineers, the public printer, and a supervising architect.
