Determined Bid to Expel Grundy From Senate Fall Back
A probing Senate effort to oust Senator Joseph R Grundy of Pennsylvania over his financial role in the 1928 gubernatorial race appears doomed. Senator Nye will seek action next Tuesday but the Elections Committee favors rejecting the move, preserving Grundy’s seat as tariff debates loom. The measure would have branded Grundy unfit to serve while spotlighting his lobbying record and the Pennsylvanian campaign financing. The debate shapes the political field ahead of the Pennsylvania primary with James J. Davis benefiting from heightened visibility.
