Censure Move Targeting Hopkins Over WPA Endorsement in Iowa Race
Washington May 26 anti administration Democrats consider a Senate censure of WPA chief Harry Hopkins over an informal endorsement of Rep. Otha Wearin for the Democratic Senate nomination in Iowa. The move follows accusations Hopkins pressured relief workers to vote for Wearin’s ally and could trigger formal rebuke if Hopkins’s remarks are confirmed. The controversy centers on Hopkins’s guidance to workers amid GOP and Democratic dissatisfaction with federal relief politics.
