Former Congressman Blames Truman for DOJ Probe
Former Missouri congressman Roger C. Slaughter accuses President Truman of inciting a Justice Department investigation tied to a lobbying case. Slaughter, defeated by Truman ally Enos Axtell in a 1946 bid, contends the probe targets grain interests he once represented, while claiming no lobbying registration was required. He invokes past battles over grain policy and alleges the DOJ action aims to pressure farmers to sell wheat below guaranteed prices, a charge he calls groundless.
