Congress Members Deny Implication in Bribery Case
Washington March 7 Representatives Langley of Kentucky and Zillman of Maryland both Republicans denied today they had improperly used official influence or received money for doing so. The Chicago grand jury had named two members of Congress in a probe but Langley and Zillman insisted they had no information linking them to any improper activity. Langley, chair of the Public Buildings and Grounds Committee, demanded a congressional investigation and proclaimed his innocence on the floor, asserting a speedy vindication. The House also pressed for immediate disclosure of the accused members’ names, with Longworth stating evidence was presented by "crooks" and criminals during the Veterans' Bureau frauds inquiry, prompting requests for action by Attorney General and Crim Perry.
